I'll [F] be capti-[C/E]-vated, I'll [A#/D] hang from your [C/E] lips
In-[F]-stead of the [F] gallows, of [C/E] heartache that [C/E] hang from a-[A#/D]-bove [A#/D] [C/E] [C/E]

My [F] love is alive and not [C/E] dead [A#/D]

And I've [Dm7] dropped out, I've burned up, I've [C] fought my way back from the dead [A#]
