It's uncanny how you hover in the air over the wreckage that you left behind

I want yooooooou, but you're a poltergeist

Really, when you come into the room it's not helping me, seeing you now 
         F#            A#m                           D#m                    B 
It's not easy, in this phosphorescent gloom, telling waking dreams apart anyhow

I want yooooooou, but you're a poltergeist

Bridge 
 
B                F#              F#m               D 
Cups and saucers crashing in but houdini blows the gag again

I want yooooooou but, baby, the price is high 
       B  D#m F#     D#m      C#               C#m          B 
I want yooooooou and now i've said it twice so mary dim the lights
