Someone Saved My Life Tonight (chrom)

SOMEONE SAVED MY LIFE TONIGHT
By: Elton John, Bernie Taupin
Key: G 

 -4 -4  -4   -4  -4    4    4   -4
When I think of those east end lights,  
 4  4    -5    4   4   -4    -4
Mug-gy nights the cur-tains drawn 
-3  3  -4  -3  -3-4  -3 3 
in the lit-tle down-stairs 
 4  4   4  4   4   -4   -4  -4
Pri-ma don-na lord you real-ly  
  -4    -3   3     3
should have been there 
 4   4    4   4  4    -5     6
Sit-ting like a prin-cess perched  
-5 -4  4 -4   -3  -3 3
in her e-lec-tric chair 
 2   3   -3*  -3  -3 3  3 
And it's one more beer and  
-3  3    -2*  3  6 -6* -6*
I don't hear you an-y-more 
  6    6   -6* -6* 7   7   6
We've all gone cra-zy late-ly 
6     6    -6*  -6*  -6*   7   -6* 
My friends out there roll-in’‘round  
 6   6    -5   -5
the base-ment floor 

(CHORUS) 
-5   6    6   -6*  7   -5
And some-one saved my life  
3    3   -3  -4  4
to-night sug-ar bear 
-5  6   6   -6*  7    -5
You al-most had your hooks  
3  3  -3  -3  -4   4
in me did-n't you dear 
-4   -3  3   3  3    3   -3   3
You near-ly had me roped and tied 
6  -6*  -6*    6 -6*  -6*
Al-tar-bound, hyp-no-tized 
  7    6   -5   -5   -4   6  -5 -5
Sweet free-dom whis-pered in my ear 
  3    3  6  -6* -6*
You're a but-ter-fly 
-5   6  -6*  -6*   7   7   6   6
And but-ter-flies are free to fly 
 6 -6* 7    6  -6* 7  -4-33 3
Fly a-way, high a-way, bye bye 

VERSE 2 same as 1 
I never realised the passing  
hours of evening showers 
A slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams 
I'm strangled by your haunted social scene 
Just a pawn out-played by a dominating queen 
It's four o'clock in the morning 
Damn it listen to me good 
I'm sleeping with myself tonight 
Saved in time, thank god my music's still alive 

(CHORUS) 
 6  6   6    -6*   7     7  -6*
And I would have walked head on  
6  6  -5   -5  -5  -5 6 -4  -3
in-to the deep end of a riv-er 
  3    3  3   2     3     2   -3
Cling-ing to your stocks and bonds 
 2   3   2  -3 -3  -3  -3   -4  3  3
Pay-ing your h. p. de-mands for ev-er 
   6     6   6  6  -6*  7    7
They're com-ing in the morn-ing  
-6*  6  -5   -5  -5  6   -4
with a truck to take me home 
 2    3    3   2   -3  3    3
Some-one saved my life to-night, 
 6    7    7   6   -7  7   7 6
Some-one saved my life to-night 
 2    3    3   2   -3  3    3
Some-one saved my life to-night 
 6    7    7   6   -7  7   7 6
Some-one saved my life to-night 
 3    3    3   2   -3  3    3
Some-one saved my life to-night 
6   6   -6*     7      7
So save your strength and  
-6*  7   -6*   6   6  -6* 7
run the field you play a-lone
