Intro: C#m B A C#m B A D (also music bridges and
ending)
*on all except the D (pretty much), strum inside four strings only
C#m B A
Cornered at a costume ball
C#m B A
By a handful of disguises
C#m B A
So I tried them all on
A D
And they were all the right sizes
C#m B A
I wore them obliviously
C#m B A
Though they would choke the life from me

(chorus)
F#m A
I got here by myself but
C#m A(the bar one) F#m
I know that I will never leave the same way
A F#m
I got here by myself but
G#
How many more will I have led astray
C#m B A
I work the floor in search of someone
C#m B A
Who would give me half a chance
C#m B A
I know if I look hard enough
D A
I'll always find someone who'll dance
(chorus; then music bridge)
C#m B A
It's not long before I notice
C#m B A D
There are no doors to be seen
C#m B A
I can see I'm going nowhere
D A C#m
Somewhere that I've already been
(chorus 2x; then ending)
