This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Verse

E7 Fmaj13 E7

Mysterious, blown in with the night

Dm

All this beauty captured in a frame

E7 Fmaj13 E7

Visibly shaken, but never stirred

D

Drives them insane

Pre-Chorus

Dm G

I see the way she plays her men

C G/B E7

And I know I've got to know her name

Chorus

She's so...

Am

Verse 2

E7 Fmaj13 E7

I see the way she cast her spell

Dm

It's like drowning in moonlight

E7 Fmaj13 E7

Discards them she's done

D

They're lost in her twilight

Pre-Chorus

Dm G

I watch her move from star to star

C G/B E7

And I wonder why, why it feels so right

Chorus

She's so...

Am

Interlude

F Dm

Why do I fall for the dangerous ones

G C G/B

The ones that never learned to let go

F Dm

And why do I lie to myself

C

And pretend that I can break her

E7

When she's already been so

Solo

Am Pentatonic

Interlude

F Dm

Why do I fall for the dangerous ones

G C G/B

The ones that don't know how to let go

F Dm

And why do I lie to myself

C

And pretend that I could break her

E7

When she's already been so

Chorus

She's so...
