[Intro 1]
[Am][E]
[Am][E][Am][E][Am]
[E][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]And
I've always been a sucker for [E]mystery
And I've always been
a sucker for [Am]mys tery
And I've always been
a sucker for [E]mystery
And I've always been
a sucker for [Am]mys tery

[Verse 2]
So I turn [Am]to the left and I [E]turn to the right
But none of the answers [Am]are in sight
So I made a mistake maybe once or twice
And [E]I can't even get to [Am]paradise
And a priest came up to [E]me
and touched my [D]face
[E]He said terrible things happen
[Am]round this place
Such terrible things happen
[E]round [Am]this place
[E]Such [Am]terrible [E]things happen
[Am]round this place
No demon, no man has [E]got a clue
But surely son,
the end will turn out [Am]right for you

[Verse 3]
'Cause I've [Am]always been
a sucker for [E]mys[Am]tery
And I've al[E]ways been
a sucker for [Am]mys tery

[Verse 4]
There's a [Am]little boy walking
[E]up [D]the stairs
Through [E]a dark hallway that
[Am]leads nowhere
He comes to a door but
he's [E]afraid [Am]to knock
And [E]he stoops down low and
peers [Am]through the lock
And there's a tall man standing
with a glistening knife
[D]And he'[E]s stooping ove[Am]r
something that has no life
With stifled tears he starts to turn away
[D]But a str[E]ange little voice seems
to whis[Am]per "Stay!"

[Verse 5]
He's [Am]always been a sucker for mystery
[F#dim]And he's alwa[Am]ys been

[Interlude 1]
[Am]
[E][Am][E][Am]

[Verse 6]
I don't want to [Am]say good b[E]ye
I want to give it [Am]one more try
[E]I d[Am]on't [E]wa[Am]nt to say good bye
[E]I want to give it o[Am]ne more try

[Verse 7]
Won't [Am]somebody help
Won't [E]somebody help
[Am]I'm [E]all alone now with nothi[Am]ng to do
And I'm all dressed up
with [E]nowhere to go
And I'm stuck with two tickets
to an [Am]aw ful show
And my mouth's full of words
but I've got nothing [E]to say
[Am]And I've[E] been sitting in front
of the TV [Am]set all day
And my head's in a vice
and it won't [E]let up
And my feet won't move and
if [Am]that ain't enough
The telephone rings
"Hello?"

[Interlude 2]
"Hello?"
[Am]
[Am]
I've [E]seen children

[Verse 8]
[Am]with
such [E]angry faces
When you look in their eyes,
it makes you [Am]want to cry
There's a time and a place
for [E]everything
There's a time and a
place for [Am]everything
Now it doesn't seem fair
But [E]who cares they're someone else's
As long as they don't come
[Am]close to mine
There's a time and a place
for [E]everything
There's a time and a place for [Am]everything

[Verse 9]
So we [Am]packed our bags and
[E]went back to the [D]hotel
[E]Back in [Am]all the squalor [E]and [Am]the living hell
And they sell you this and
[E]they sell [Am]you that
[E]They sell you their sister
for a [Am]buck and a half
Such terrible things hap
[E]pen round this place
Such [Am]terrible things happen
round this place
Such terrible things happen
[E]round [Am]this place
And [E]people disappear without a [Am]trace

[Verse 10]
And I've [Am]always been a
sucker for mys[E]tery
And I've always [Am]been

[Interlude 3]
[E]
[Am]
Well [E]the mys

[Verse 11]
[Am]tery that
intrigues me [E]the most
Is the one that makes men
[Am]give up hope
The pride and the search
for even [E]little thing[D]s
[E]That might give a meaning,
or [Am]even a hint
'Cause how can a free
man not [E]have [D]hope
[E]When he hasn't even reached
the [Am]end of his rope?

[Verse 12]
[E]I d[Am]on't [E]wa[Am]nt to say good bye[E]
I want to give it [Am]one more try
[E]I d[Am]on't want to close the ga[E]te
I still think that it's [Am]not too late
[E]I k[Am]now when I reach the end[D]
[E]I want to start all[Am] over
[E]again[Am][E]
[Am][E]
[Am]
I don't want to

[Verse 13]
I don't want [Am]to say good [E]bye
I want to give it [Am]one more try
I don't want [E]to say [Am]good bye[E]
I want to give it [Am]one more try
Don't, don't, [E]don't wanna
Don't, [Am]don't, don't wanna
Don't, don't, don't wanna
[E]Don't, don't,
[Am]don't wanna say [E]good [Am]bye

[Verse 14]
Don't want to [Am]say good bye
Oh, [E]I d[Am]on't want to say good bye
I don't want to [Am]say good b[E]ye
Don't want to [Am]say good b[E]ye
Don't want to [Am]say good bye
Don't want to [Am]say good b[E]ye
Don't want to [E]say [Am]good bye
Don't want to [Am]say good bye
Don't want to [Am]say good bye
