(repeat)
Verse 1:
C F C G C
Darkness falls and she, will take me by the hand,
F C G
take me to some twilight land
C F C G C
Where my all my love is green, where I can't find my way,
F C G
without her as my guide.
PreChorus 1:

Night falls, I'm cast beneath her spell
F G C
Daylight comes, our heaven turns to Hell
F C G C
Am I left to burn? To burn eternally?
F C G
She's a mystery to me
C F C G
She's a mystery girl
(repeat)
Verse 2:
C F C G C
In the night of love, words tangled in her hair,
F C G
Words soon to disappear
C F C G C
A love so sharp it cut, like a switchblade to my heart
F C G
Words tearing my apart
PreChorus 2:
F G
She's tears, again my bleeding heart,
F G
I wanna run, she pulling me apart,
C F C
Fallen angel cries,
G C
And I just melt away
F C G
She's a mystery to me
(Repeat Chorus) x 4

Haunted by her side it's the darkness in her eyes,

That so enslaves me,

But if my love is blind,
G C
Then I don't want to see,
F C G
She's a mystery to me

Am I left to burn? To burn eternally?
