lights,

nights
The

Prima Donna lord you really
Ab
should have been there
Gb
Sitting like a princess
Ab
perched in her
Db
electric
chair
And it’s
Dbm
one more beer and I don’t hear you
Bb7
anymore
We’ve
Db
all gone crazy lately
My
Bb/D
friends out there rolling round the basement
Ab/Eb
floor
Eb

And someone saved my
Ab/C
life tonight
Bbm
sugar bear

Db
You almost had your

hooks in me
Bbm
didn’t you dear
You
Ab/C
nearly
Dbmaj7
had me roped and
Ab/C
tied
Db
Altar-bound,
Bb/D
hypnotized
Sweet
Ab/Eb
freedom whispered in my ear
You’re a
Bb7/F
butterfly
And
Db
butterflies are free to fly
Bb/D
Fly
away,

high away,

I never realized the passing hours of evening showers
A slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams
I’m strangled by your haunted social scene
Just a pawn out-played by a dominating queen
It’s four o’clock in the morning
Damn it listen to me good
I’m sleeping with myself tonight
Saved in time, thank God my music’s still alive
Bbm
And I would have walked head on into the
Ab/C
deep end of the river
Fm7
Clinging to your stocks and bonds
Paying your
Db/Ab
H.P. demands forever
Bbm
They’re coming in the morning with a
Ab/C
truck to take me home
Fm7
Someone saved my life tonight,
Db/Ab
someone saved my life tonight
Fm7
Someone saved my life tonight,
Db/Ab
someone saved my life tonight
Fm7
Someone saved my life tonight
So
Db/Ab
save your strength and run the field you
Bb7
play
alone

I think the Fm7 in the bridge should actually be an Eb/F.
Elton due to issues with his voice, now performs it in Key of F
