My ammunition won't load into my gun
My inhibitions, they fall like the weight from a stone

You [A/D]lead my heart away, [A/D]like a homeless, dusted [Gbmaj7]fool[Gbmaj7]

Some[A/D]how this dimestore ring [A/D]still shines like a diamond [Gbmaj7]to you[Gbmaj7]

Pre-chorus:

[Gb] Oh, how it [G]deepens

[Gb] Oh, how it [G]deepens

Chorus 1:

[D5] Your [A5]myste[B5]ry...[G5].. keeps on turnin' me on

D5 A5 B5 G5(once)
Your mystery.....

Verse 2:
Note: Guitar 1 plays the chords without parenthesis

( A 3rd Guitar plays the picking part of Verse 1 once w/both endings
under Guitars 1 & 2 and leads into Pre-chorus)

[D5] [(A/D)] Thought I [C#5]knew the rules, [(A/D)]thought I [B5]held it in [(Gbmaj7)]my hand[(Gbmaj7)]

[D5] [(A/D)] Thought I was bu[C#5]lletproof, [(A/D)]'til the b[B5]lood pooled up in [(Gbmaj7)]the sand[(Gbmaj7)]


[D5] [(A/D)] Are you a satel[C#5]lite?[(A/D)] A [B5]shooting star, or [(Gbmaj7)]a dove?[(Gbmaj7)]

[D5] Did we [(A/D)]put you way [C#5]up there or[(A/D)] did G[B5]od send you down f[(Gbmaj7)]rom above?

[(Gbmaj7)]Above....

(Repeat Pre-chorus)

Chorus 2:

[D5] Your [A5]myste[B5]ry...[G5].. keeps on turnin' me on

[D5] Your [A5]myste[B5]ry...[G5].. burns me up like the sun

[D5] Your [A5]mystery.....

Bridge:
(Split into 2 parts. Part one is guitar 1 playing power chords
Part two is guitar 2 playing a lead part)

Part 1:

[B5] Mine [A5]eyes have seen the [G5]glory of a love that does transcend

[B5] Mine [A5]eyes have seen the [G5]worst inside of man[A5]

[B5] And the [A5]fear is like a [G5]fallen bridge, a broken promise

[B5] And the [A5]proof is in the [G5]bloodshot eyes of the one who [G5]failed to see
