A minorAm           FF
  So there goes your life
   D MajorD            A5A5 (A augmentedA)
Disappeared from ever loving friends
     A minorAm     FF
And now a slave to obsession

Your strange delight

CHORUS
A minorAm
  You lie awake
Asus4add13
 How your senses ache
A minorAm
 Shaking off the night
Asus4add13         [A minorAm]
 Is there more strange delight?


VERSE
A minorAm          FF
   There goes your self
    D MajorD          A5A5 (A augmentedA)
In the clear forever out of line
         A minorAm       FF
And there you'll stay through obsession
   D MajorD     A5A5 (A augmentedA)
Your strange delight

CHORUS
A minorAm
  Can't bear this heat
Asus4add13
 Your poor heart skips a beat
A minorAm
 Tearing back the years
Asus4add13        [A minorAm]
 To when you really cared


VERSE
A minorAm          FF
   So where's your soul?
    D MajorD            A5A5 (A augmentedA)
In the field where every story ends
       A minorAm      FF
And then how plain your obsession
   D MajorD     A augmentedA
Your strange delight

  Have tried your strange delight
