[Verse]
                      Db       Ebsus4 Db             
When I think of those East End lights ■  muggy nights
    Ab                    Gb          Db        
The curtains drawn in the little room downstairs
            Eb              Ab                
Prima Donna Lord you really shoulda been there
Eb                      Ab             Db            
Sittin' like a princess perched in her electric chair
Db                    
And it's one more beer


[Chorus]
Db                          
And I don't hear you anymore
Db                         
We've all gone crazy lately
Bb                                       Ab       Eb   
My friend's out there rollin' 'round the basement floor


[Verse]
Db                   Ab           Bbm   Ab   Db
And someone saved my life tonight sugar bear ■ 
                    Abmaj7      Bbm            
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
Ab         Dbmaj7           Cm7 
You nearly had me roped and tied


[Chorus]
Db         Bb               Ab                         
Altarbound hypnotized sweet freedom whispered in my ear
         Ab       
You're a butterfly
Db                             
And butterflies are free to fly
Bb       Ab        C7    
Fly away high away byebye

[Verse]
Ebsus4                             Db                   
I never realized the passin' hours ■  of evening showers
Ab                   Gb            Db    
A slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams
                              Ab          
I'm strangled by your haunted social scene
Eb          Ab7            Db              
Just a pawn outplayed by a dominating queen
     Db                         
It's four o'clock in the morning
               Bb7       
Damn it listen to me good


[Chorus]
Db                              
I'm sleeping with myself tonight
Bb                  Bbmaj7 Bb         Ab          Eb
Saved in time thank God    my music's still alive ■ 
Db                   Ab           Bbm   Ab  
And someone saved my life tonight sugar bear
Db                  Ab          Bbm            
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
           Db               Ab  
You nearly had me roped and tied
Db         Bb               Ab                         
Altarbound hypnotized sweet freedom whispered in my ear
         Ab       
You're a butterfly
Db                             
And butterflies are free to fly
Dm       Bb Ebsus4 Ab   C7 Db Cm Bbm

[Verse]
                                       Ab                   
And I would've walked head on into the deep end of the river
Fsus4                            
Clinging to your stocks and bonds
            Db                
Paying your HP demands forever
Bbm7    Bbm                          Ab    Abmaj7     Ab  
They're coming in the morning with a truck to take me home


[Chorus]
Fsus4                              
■     Someone saved my life tonight

■  Someone saved my life tonight

Someone saved my life tonight
Db                                          Bb        
So save your strength and run the field you play alone
Db                   Ab           Bbm       
And someone saved my life tonight sugar bear
Ab Db             Ab                          Bbm

You're a butterfly
