[Verse 1]
Where did [Bb]our love go?
You will never [D]know[Gm][Bb][D]
[Gm]How did you [Bb]get home?
You will never [D]know[Gm][Bb]
Did [Asus4]you catch yourself [Gm]in the mirror?
[D]It's a sight I un [Gm]ders[D]tand
You consider it all for a [Gm]second[D]
And put it down [Gm]to sleight [Bb]of hand
You know I've been [Asus4]running
[Gm]'round for [D]hours[Bb]
Calling my [Dm]Gyptian blood [Gm]to bear
me flower[D]s[Bb]
Calling Sophi[Dm]a, go[Gm]ddess of power
[D]

[Verse 2]
In[Asus4]stead I got the bea[D]st
[Gm]And tonight, he lies with me
To[Bb]night, he lies with me
To[Asus4]night, he li[D]es with me
[Gm]And here come [G]the [D]beast

[Verse 3]
[Dsus4][D]
"You're OK [Bb]now?"
I [Dsus4]suppose[D][Bb]
[D][Dsus4]
[D]"You're not [Bb]pulled by the
[Dsus4]rope?"[Bb][D]
[Dsus4]I'm pulled by the pu[D]ll[G]
on my [Asus4]throat
I'm pulled by [G]the [Bb]rope
I swing from [Asus4]the trees [Dm]into [G]the
[Dsus4]slope[D][Dsus4][D][Bb]
Hold my head [Asus4]high just by t[Dm]he tip[G]
of my [D]toes[Dsus4][D][Bb]
And he lies, he [Asus4]lies,
so [G]sweet that I choke
[D][Dsus4]

[Verse 4]
[Asus4]Tonight, I choose the beast
[Bb]And tonigh[Gm]t, he li[G]es with me

[G]And here come the beast
[D][Dsus4][D]

[Verse 5]
[Bb]
Put your eyes [Asus4]away
if you can't bear to [Bb]see
Your old lady [Asus4]lay down next to the beast
