Intro:  F#m  C#  
F#mTonight out on the streets
I'm gonna follow you
Tell you all about a scene
That you would kill for
C#You're gonna love what's
Burning right in front of you
But you won't see it
By the light of the sun
F#mCome out Tigerlily
You're caressing me
I'll take you up
I'll turn you on
I'll take your apathy
C#I wouldn't lie to you Blossom
Won't you let it go
I'm gonna give you all you want
And don't you know
AThat you
I know you better than G#this
I could be here when you F#mcall
I'll make you top of the Dlist
And in the crush of the Adark
I'll be your light in the G#mist
I can see you F#mburning with desire
For a Dkiss
BmPsychobabble all upon your C#lips
That's pretty much it, I play barre chords for this to get the snappy kind of electro 
but it's up to you. The rest of the song continues like this:
[verse chords]
They can sell it all they want
But you cannot agree
I don't like the taste
Of their morality
You'll find your bread and your butter
Where you fake it
And put your face in the gutter
Of a snake pit
But our communication
Is telepathy
What you give is what you get
Out of us naturally
And we can wait til the shadow grows long
And turn the page of a story
That has long since found a home
[chorus chords]
I know you better than this
I could be here when you call
I'll make you top of the list
And in the crush of the dark
I'll be your light in the mist
I can see you burning with desire
For a kiss
Psychobabble all upon your lips
[verse chords]
Have you ever felt
Like you're being followed?
Or watched the ones that held your stare?
Turned around to see who's behind you
To find there's no one there?
Lurking in the dark
There's someone who breathes you night and day
There's a friend who wants so much more
And if they can't have you
They'll never let you walk away
[chorus chords]
And in the crush of the dark
I'll be your light in the mist
I can see you burning with desire
For a kiss
And in the crush of the dark
I'll be your light in the mist
I can see you burning with desire
For a kiss
Psychobabble all upon your lips

Intro:

F#m

Tonight out on the streets

I'm gonna follow you

Tell you all about a scene

That you would kill for

You're gonna love what's

Burning right in front of you

But you won't see it

By the light of the sun

F#m

Come out Tigerlily

You're caressing me

I'll take you up

I'll turn you on

I'll take your apathy

I wouldn't lie to you Blossom

Won't you let it go

I'm gonna give you all you want

And don't you know

That you

I know you better than this

F#m

I could be here when you call

I'll make you top of the list

And in the crush of the dark

I'll be your light in the mist

F#m

I can see you burning with desire

For a kiss

Bm C#

Psychobabble all upon your lips

[verse chords]

They can sell it all they want

But you cannot agree

I don't like the taste

Of their morality

You'll find your bread and your butter

Where you fake it

And put your face in the gutter

Of a snake pit

But our communication

Is telepathy

What you give is what you get

Out of us naturally

And we can wait til the shadow grows long

And turn the page of a story

That has long since found a home

[chorus chords]

I know you better than this

I could be here when you call

I'll make you top of the list

Have you ever felt

Like you're being followed?

Or watched the ones that held your stare?

Turned around to see who's behind you

To find there's no one there?

Lurking in the dark

I can see you burning with desire

For a kiss

And in the crush of the dark

I'll be your light in the mist

I can see you burning with desire

For a kiss

Psychobabble all upon your lips
