(Intro)

Open up song by strumming individual
 notes on C

(Verse 1)

C
I just kicked out the floor lights
        Am                         
But the spotlight operator's 
  Em
shining shame on all my chosen words
 and my chosen words and my
G
Hip parading

(Pre-Chorus)

F         Em           Am
I can see him start to sneer
C
Get me out of here
F
Get me out of here

(Verse 2)

C                                 
And what started out in earnest 
  Am
now seems more like a jest
      Em                           
And I was your concrete hero, is 
     G
now an uninvited guest

(Pre-Chorus)

        F           Em          Am
And the floor seats are sensing fear
C
Get me out of here
F
Get me out of here

(Chorus 1)

             Am       Em       F
Could be the greatest rockstar ever
       Am         Em    F
if you get off on loneliness
G
Cause it's a wilderness
F
It's like a wilderness
                   C    Am
And the band said, come to,
Em               F
we're waiting up for you,
             C              F
yeah they're waiting up for you,
           G                F
and you're backstage in the dark, 
yeah.

C       Am     Em           F
Can you stand? The audience commands
        C      F
you to stand up for the band.
G
Well I think I lost my spark.

(Verse 3)

C
My damsel with the dowry
       Am
walked into the hotel Bowery
     Em                     G
Some junior banker's lusty conquest

(Pre-Chorus)

        F           Em        Am
And I'm too shocked to shed a tear
C
Get me out of here.
F
Get me out of here.

(Chorus 2)

             Am       Em       F
Could be the greatest rockstar ever
Who needs a new address.
C        Am
Come to, Yeah!
Em                   F
we're waiting up for you
             C              F
yeah they're waiting up for you
   G          F
is everything alright? Yeah
C       Am     Em           F
Can you stand? The audience commands
       C        F
you to stand up for the band
         G
You're a creature of the night
Cadd9 G
She's a creature of the night
Cadd9 G
She's a creature of the night

(Bridge)

F                         C
To a bus take me over the Golden 
Gate Bridge
F                         Am
to leftover peas and a note on the 
fridge
F                         C
She's holding the keys until the 
tone is abridged
F
but the message is clear
C            Am E G
get me outta heeeere.

(Breakdown)

C                            
Crashing in the backstage, the 
           Am
show's a smashing great success 
(thank you darling)
Em                                
The band's a gateway drug and I'm 
  G
a tragic mess.
C
But one more time the lights they 
fade in
Am
This song's for you, my bashful 
maiden,
Em
whose face looked like my wife
G
is now as cold and calculating
     F        Am        C
as a cosmetic surgeon's knife
         Cadd9    G
Somebody save her life
         Cadd9    G
Somebody save her life

(End Chorus)

               C       Am
The band said, come on dude
Em                   F
we're waiting up for you
             C          F
yeah they're waiting up for you
G             F
is everything alright?
C       Am         Em       F
Can you stand? The audience commands
 you to
C            F
Stand up for the band
G
You're a creature of
    Am       Em       F
The greatest rockstar ever
    Am       Em       F
if you get off on loneliness

           F              G
Cause it's hard to get it right
           F              G
when you're a creature of the night
           F              G
She's a creature of the night
