  (CP1)
  Mystic demons fly
  All about the sk
  With memories of a clown
  The saddest show in town
  
  (CP1)
  When I was seventeen
  Me mother said to me
  Be careful what you touch
  You shouldn't take so much
  
  (CP2)
  I blew my mind
  She was so kind
  I could have cried
  
  B  B  B     B A G#     <--Chord Progression 3 (CP3)
  In my mind
  B  B      B     B A G#
  I had to find
  B        B     B      B A G#
  A kind of new way
  B        B      B     B A G#
  Of being oh so cool
  B       B      B     B A G#
  Like a blue blooded
  B     B     B     B A G#
  Well studded
  B    B   B      B A G#
  English fool
  
  (Solo)
  
  (CP1)
  Speak about the past
  Times are changing fast
  Once I was so weak
  I couldn't even speak
  
  (CP1)
  Shaking put a curse
  Nothing could be worse
  Walking through the door
  Who could ask for more
  
  (CP2)
  Now I'm free
  And I can see
  That I am me
  
  (CP1)
  Spread the word around
  The rat is leaving town
  The message is a song
  The misery is gone
  
  (CP1)
  Shaking out a curse
  Nothing could be worse
  Walking through the door
  Who could ask for more
  
  (CP2)
  Now I'm free
  And I can see
  That I am me
  
  Please stay away
