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#             E5/Db
Turn your anger into  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#          E5/Db
Love and sex and loneliness
E5/F#                 E5/Db
Take what's yours and leave the rest
  F#5   E5
So I'll survive
G#5           F#5   Eb5
God it's good to be alive

Chorus:
Bb5          F#5
I'm torn in pieces
G#5           F#5
I'm blind and waiting for...
B5          F#5
My heart is reeling
G#5           F#5          (riff beneath)
I'm blind and waiting for you
