Someone Saved My Life Tonight chords
Elton John

Capo I

G C 2x

G           C    G    C
When I think of those East End lights, muggy nights
G           F        C
Curtains drawn in the little room downstairs
F              G
Prima Donna Lord you really should have been there
F            G       C
Sitting like a princess perched in her electric chair
     Cm                 C A7
And it's one more beer and I don't hear you anymore
   C       A7
We've all gone crazy lately
  C         A7        C    G
My friends out there rolling round the basement floor
    D
ooooooooo

  C        G       Am  C  Am C
And someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear
  C        G      Am     C
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
G     C        G
You nearly had me roped and tied
C         A7
Altar bound, hypnotized
   G         C
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
     A7
You're a butterfly
  C        A7
And butterflies are free to fly
C     G     A7 C
Fly away, high away, bye bye
C    G      Am G  F
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

G C 2x

G         C    G    C
Never realised the passing hours of evening showers
G         F       C
Slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams
  F             G
I'm strangled by your haunted social scene
F        G        C
Just a pawn out-played by a dominating Queen
   Cm         C
It's four o'clock in the morning
     A7
Damn it, listen to me good
  C        A7
I'm sleeping with myself tonight
C          A7       C   G
Saved in time, thank God my music's still alive
     D
Ah ah ah ah ah ah

  C        G       Am  C  Am C
And someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear
  C        G      Am     C
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
G     C        G
You nearly had me roped and tied
C         A7
Altar bound, hypnotized
   G         C
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
     A7
You're a butterfly
  C        A7
And butterflies are free to fly
C     G     A7 C
Fly away, high away, bye bye
C    G      Am G  F
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

G C 2x

Am        C            G        C
And I would have walked head on into the deep end of the river
A7
Clinging to your stocks and bonds
A7     C
Paying your H.P. demands forever
Am      C       Em        G
Coming in the morning with a truck to take me home
A7        C       Em        C
Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight
A7        C       Em        C
Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight
A7        C
Someone saved my life tonight
  Em           C         A7  C
So save your strength and run the field you play alone

  C        G       Am  C  Am C
And someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear
  C        G      Am     C
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
G     C        G
You nearly had me roped and tied
C         A7
Altar bound, hypnotized
   G         C
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
     A7
You're a butterfly
  C        A7
And butterflies are free to fly
C     G     A7 C
Fly away, high away, bye bye
