Intro: F Dm F Dm
F Dm
Get off your cat walk, I want you to talk
F Dm
To be the seer, instead of the seen
F Dm
There is a flower, a leaning tower
Bb C
And all of the wonders standing between
F Dm Bb C
I don't a-wanna be another mystery, oh no
F Dm Bb C
I don't a-wanna see who's a-looking at me, oh no
F Dm Bb C
I wanna be the one to feel the sun, oh, oh
F Dm Bb C
So if you wanna see the world with me, let's go
INTERLUDE: F Dm F Dm
F Dm
The alligator, the god that made her
F Dm
And all the creatures that got left behind
F Dm
In Mycenae, Ave Maria
Bb C
And everything you gotta dig harder to find
Bb C
I don't want to be a vapour of heavenly light
Bb C
Everybody guess if I'm an angel or sprite
F Dm Bb C
I don't a-wanna be another mystery, oh no
F Dm Bb C
I don't a-wanna see who's a-looking at me, oh no
F Dm Bb C
I wanna be the one to feel the sun, oh, oh
F Dm Bb C
So if you wanna see the world with me, let's go

INTERLUDE: G Em G Em
G Em
You could pursue it, hell I could do it
G Em
I'll just be quiet when I get angry and hurt
G Em
I'm stopping traffic, cinema-graphic
C D
With my long black coat hanging down in the dirt
C D
And my hair clinging to my face in the rain
C D
Like a goddess from the Cult Of Beautiful Pain
G Em C D
I don't want to be another mystery
G Em C D
I don't want to be another mystery
C D
I could cut you off with a shoulder of stone
C D
Smoke all night and leave the party alone
C D
Screw myself with an inscrutable pout
Am
But I just want you to come figure me out
