Dm7/A          G/D Gm/D
Eyes over the city,
                   D
Rise up from your soul,
Hang over the streets at night,
brought on by the cold

We live with the numbers
Mining our dreams for the same old song
What hope for the turning
If everything you know is wrong

Chorus:
        G# G            D
So come on, shake your rag doll, baby
   G#        G          D
Before you change your mind
          G# G          D
Then come on, when the rapture takes me
 F                         E
Be the fallen angel by my side

If you carry the lantern
I'll carry you home
You search for the disappeared
I'll bury the cold

Yours is a messiah
Mine is a dream and it won't be long
No hope for the journey
If no-one ever sees the dawn

Chorus:
So come on, shake your rag doll, baby
Before you change your mind
Then come on, when the rapture takes me
Will you be by my side?

So come on, shake your rag doll, baby
Before you change your mind
Then come on, when the rapture takes me
Be the fallen angel by my side

So come on, shake your rag doll, baby
Before you change your mind
Then come on, when the rapture takes me
Will you be by my side?

So come on, shake your rag doll, baby
Before you change your mind
Then come on, when the rapture takes me
Be the fallen angel by my side
