Someone Saved My Life Tonight

When I think of those (C)east end (G)lights,

(C)muggy nights, the (G)curtains drawn in the (F)little room down (C)stairs,

(F)prima donna, Lord, you really (G)should have been there,

(F)sitting like a princess (G)perched in her (C)electric chair.

And it's (Cm)one more beer, and I don't hear you (A)anymore.

We've (C)all gone crazy lately, my (A)friends out there rollin' 'round the (G)basement floor.

(C)And someone saved my (G)life tonight,

(Am)sugar bear.

(C)You almost had your (G)hooks in me,

(Am)didn't you dear?

You nearly (C)had me roped and (G)tied,

(C)altar bound, (A7)hypnotized, sweet (G)freedom whispered in my ear.

You're a (A)butterfly, and (C)butterflies are free to fly.

(A7)Fly away, (G)high away, (B)bye,

(C)bye.

(G)When I think of those (C)east end (G)lights,

(A7)Fly away, (G)high away, (B)bye,

(C)bye. (A7)And I would have walked head on into the (G)deep end of a river,

(Em)clinging to your stocks and bonds,

paying your (C)H.

P. demands (Am7)forever.

They're coming in the morning with a (G)truck to take me home.

(Em)Someone saved my life tonight,

(C)someone saved my life tonight,

(Em)someone saved my life tonight,

(C)someone saved my life tonight,

(Em)someone saved my life tonight.

So (C)save your strength and run the field you (A7)play alone.
