Verse 1:
E                 G#m    C#m7  B
Caught above the atmosphere
E                 G#m    C#m7  B
Kept on ice for ninety years
E                 G#m    C#m7  B
Fading out on sleeping pills
E                 G#m    C#m7  B
Camel blue and orange peel

And I need you to light me up light me up
E     B          F#m
You’re burning brightly

English grey, block out the sun
E                 G#m    C#m7  B
Seasons merging into one
E                 G#m    C#m7  B
Naked flame and kerosene
E                 G#m    C#m7  B
Diamond white and racing green

Verse 3:
           E
Through revolving doors
                  G#m
Where the high rise sink
         C#m7
And the mothers smoke
        B
Over kitchen sinks
          E
Where the cameras flash
               G#m
And the models freeze
          C#m7
And the writers block
          B
Up the magazines

Verse 4:
         E         B
Where the boys escape
         F#m         A
From the primary classes
     E          B
And grow moustaches
         F#m         A
And lens-less glasses
         E         B
We’re losing weight
         F#m         A
And we’re shedding skin
         E         B
And we’re turning straight
         F#m         A
And we’re tuning in

Verse 5:
         E         B
And I take my pills
         F#m         A
And I make my bed
         E         B
And I file my forms
         F#m         A
And I feed my head
         E         B
And I pay my way
         F#m         A
Get to work on time
         E         B
And I come home late
         F#m         A
Every Friday night

Chorus:
E     B   F#m
I’m dying out
  A                 E      B   F#m     A
And I need you to light me up light me up
E     B          F#m
You’re burning brightly
  A                 E      B   F#m     A
And I need you to light me up light me up

Outro:

And I need you to light me up light me up
E     B          F#m
You’re burning brightly
  A                 E      B   F#m     A
I need you to light me up so light me up
