D oh its carnival night
G/E......G/D A and they're stringin the lights around you
D/B G/E........G/D A hangin paper angels painting little devils on the roof
D G/E......G/D A oh the furnace wind is a flickerin of wings about your face
D/B G/E.. ...G/D A in a cloud of innocence yeah it smells like heaven in this place
G A A/F# i cant eat, cant sleep still i hunger for you when you look at me
G A that face those eyes all the simple pleasures deep inside [Chorus]
D A Bm F#m tell me how you know now, the ways and means of gettin in

G A D A underneath my skin you were always my original sin
A D A Bm F#m tell me why i shut up inside every time we begin
G A D this dangerous game, oh you were always my original sin
D.......Em..F#m....A...............
D.......Em..F#m....A............... [Verse]
D G/E......G/D A i dream of flying the moment that you open up your eyes
D/B G/E......G/D A the dream is just a rhythm goes from every corner of your life
D G/E......G/D A up in the balcony all the romeos are pleadin for your hand
D/B G/E......G/D A blowin theatre kisses reciting lines they don't understand
G A i cant eat, cant sleep still i hunger for you when you look at me
G A that face those eyes all the simple pleasures deep inside [Chorus]
D A Bm F#m tell me how you know now, the ways and means of gettin in
G A D A underneath my skin you were always my original sin
