        E
What a night for a dance,
                          F#m/C#
you know I'm a dancing machine
        B/D#
With a fire in my bones and
                        F#m/C#
the sweet taste of kerosene

I get lost in the night so high
I don't want to come down
To face the loss of the good
thing that I've found

        E
In the dark of the night
                            F#m
I could hear you calling my name
                     E/G#
With the hardest of hearts
                      F#m
I still feel full of pain

So I drink and I smoke and
I ask you if you're ever around
Even though it was me who drove
us right in the ground

Chorus:
         A
See the time we shared
it was precious to me
But all the while
        B               E
I was dreaming of revelry

Born to run, baby run like
a stream down a mountainside
With the wind in my back
I don't ever even bat an eye

Just know it was you all along
who had a hold of my heart
But the demon and me were
the best of friends from the start

Chorus:
So the time we shared
it was precious to me
All the while
I was dreaming of revelry
Dreaming of revelry

And I told myself boy away you go,
it rained so hard it felt like snow
Everything came tumbling down on me

In the back of the woods in
the dark of the night
Paleness of the old moonlight
everything just felt so incomplete

Dreaming of revelry
Dreaming of revelry
Dreaming of revelry
Dreaming of revelry
