  Bb                     Eb/Bb Eb/Bb
    Up here on the ledge
  Bb                               Eb/Bb Eb/Bb   
    I'm gettin' pushed to the edge
  Ab/Bb              Eb/Bb                  Bb      Eb/Bb Eb/Bb
    People line up behind me to step into my shoes
  
  Up here in the precipice
  I'm gettin' close to my nemesis
  People fighting each other to jump into my blues
  
  Bb Dm7/A
  
  Gm                                         Cm Cm  
    There's a young kid inside me somewhere
  Gm                    Ab                Bb
    He stays up all night, a vampire that never dies
              Eb/Bb             Bb            Bb Dm/A
    With the blood and the moon in his eyes
  Gm                                         Cm Cm 
    I hear his voice when I'm comin' down
  Gm             Ab                      Bb
    Sleep is for fools who never see the sunrise
        Eb/Bb        Bb
    Who never get to live twice
  
  [intro pattern]
  
  I was a face in a magazine
  When you were still playin' with your plasticine,
  Now you're doggin' my tail, ridin' the slipstream,
  You can take the fans and the enemies
  The little girls who squeeze and tease
  Then pass on their social disease
  Go get your penicillin.
  
  [intro pattern]
  
  C          G/B
  I know you young and dumb
  F/A                 C/G
  I know where you're coming from
  C                       G/B
  Don't know where you're goin' to
  F/A              C/G           
  But I been there same as you
  Bb                        F
     You're running out of ideas
      C         
  And new hats to try on
  
  I know you middle age
  Same song, different page,
  I know what you're goin' through
  Made the same mistakes as you,
  All you want is some hope
  And a shoulder to cry on.
  C G/B
  
  Am
    There's a stranger inside me somewhere
                     Bb            C
  That shadow behind me don't even look like me
     F/C     C
  An echoed apology
  He's a wolf in sheep disguise
  I wake up in places I don't even recognize
  Pretender in paradise
  
  [intro pattern]
  
  C           G/B   F/A     C/G F    C
    It's your turn, step up and take it
     C                           F/A    C/G  F   C
  If you've got the guts to hang on you can make it
  Bb        F/Bb F/Bb 
    Come on
  Bb        F/Bb F/Bb
    Come on
  F#        Bbm7 Bbm7  F#
    Come on
  Bbm7 F# F#  Bb   Bb
  Ooooh,      take it
