Verse: (Play Intro)
Ecstasy is all you need
Living in the big machine, now
Oh you're so vain
Now your world is way too fast
Nothing's real and nothing lasts
And I'm aware
I'm in love and you don't care
Pre-Chorus:
[E5/F#]Turn your anger in[E5/Db]to lust
E5/F# E5/Db Ab minor
I'm still here but you don't trust at all
And I'll be waiting
[E5/F#]Love and sex an[E5/Db]d loneliness
[E5/F#]Take what's yours and [E5/Db]leave the rest
So[F#5] I'll [E5]survive
[G#5]God it's good [F#5]to be [Eb5]alive
Chorus:
[Bb5]I'm torn in p[F#5]ieces
[G#5]I'm blind and [F#5]waiting for...
