Intro: -open You come out at night That's when the energy comes And the dark sides light And the vampires roam You strut your rasta wear And your suicide poem And a cross from a faith that died - - Before Jesus came You're building a mystery You live in a church Where you sleep with voodoo dolls And you won't give up the search For the ghost in the halls You wear sandals in the snow When a smile won't wash away Can you look out the window Without your shadow getting in the way You're so beautiful With an edge and a charm, and So careful when - I'm - in your arms Cause you're working Building a mystery Holding on, and holding it in Yeah, you're working Building a mystery And choosing so carefully You woke up screaming aloud A prayer from your secret god You feed off our fears And hold back your tears, oh You give us a tantrum And a know it all grin Just when we need one When the evening's thin You're a beautiful a beautiful F--ked up man You're setting up your razor wire shrine Cause you're working Building a mystery Holding on, and holding it in Yeah, you're working Building a mystery And choosing so carefully Guitar Solo:(jam the bass chords but don't leave out others)
