Chorus:

Hey! Miss murder can I
Am   Dm      C        G
Hey! Miss murder can I
Am   Dm     C        G
Make Beauty stay if I
F            E
Take my life    Whoa!

Verse 1:
             Am       C
With just a look they shook
    G               E
And heavens bowed before him.
          Am      C          G           E
Simply a look can break your heart.
     Am
The stars that pierce the sky;
    G                  E
He left them all behind.
      Am
We’re left to wonder why
    G          E
He left us all behind.

Chorus:
Am   Dm      C        G
Hey! Miss murder can I
Am   Dm      C        G
Hey! Miss murder can I
Am   Dm     C        G
Make Beauty stay if I
F           E
Take my life    Whoa!

Verse 2:
               Am
Dreams of his crash won’t pass

Oh, how they all adored him
                                  G   E
Beauty will last when spiraled down.
     Am
The stars that mystify
    G                 E
He left them all behind.
    Am
And how his children cried
   G          E
He left us all behind.

Chorus:
Am   Dm      C        G
Hey! Miss murder can I
Am   Dm      C        G
Hey! Miss murder can I
Am   Dm     C        G
Make Beauty stay if I
F            E
Take my life    Whoa!

Am
   What's the hook, the twist
   Adim             C
Within this verbose mystery?
Am                       Adim          C
   I would gladly bet my life upon it.
Am                               Adim
   That the ghost you love, your ray of light
     C
Will fizzle out
Am Am (nc)
   without hope.
Am                          Adim               C
   We're the empty set just floating through, wrapped in skin
Am                        Adim                C
   Ever searching for what we were promised.
Am                          Adim            C
   Reaching for that golden ring we'd never let go,
Am                           E
   but who would ever let us put our filthy hands upon it?
