[Intro]
N.C.

[Verse 1]
D
 You took me in the stairwell light
Bm
Mistook me for a friend
  G                              Em
A sign said, "Follow me into the night"
Em
Mistook me for a friend
   A#            F
Mistook me for a friend
   A#            G
Mistook me for a friend

[Chorus]
D
 I had a pocket full of presidents, a suitcase full of elements
D
The double-cross of spectacles, the mogul for mechanicals
D
Rainy streets were gleaming, maybe I was dreaming
D
She thought that she heard wedding bells, a hundred thousand decibels
     Am               Em              G     C     G
That crush and her confectioner said (Yеah, yeah, yeah)
   D              G      Am
Mistook you for a friend
            Em           G     C     G
Shе took my temperature (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
G
Mistook me for a friend
G                       F C F C N.C.
Mistook me for a friend

[Verse 2]
D    Bm
 You took your clothes off after you sent him away
G                        Em
Why now, baby, would you ask for me to stay?
  A#             F
I knew it wasn't right
   A#              F
If I could just pretend
   A#             G
Mistook you for a friend

[Chorus]
D
 I was working miracles for petty cash and chemicals
D
Dealt in the invisible, something close to criminal
D
Don't act so mysterious, pretend you're not curious
D
Started out peculiar, ended up notorious
  Am           Em           G     C     G
Milady and her jockey said (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
   D              G
Mistook you for a friend
      Am            Em           G     C     G
"This wine is going to my head" (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
   D             G
Mistook me for a friend
   D             G
Mistook me for a friend
                        F C F C
Mistook me for a friend

[Bridge]
Am                                   C
I saw you slumming last night out on Poverty Row
Am                                     Em
Why you lacked the nerve to leave him, I will never know
    A#                   F
You took my glass and my ball of twine
          A#                       F
While the words would blur and the windward whine
     G
When I had no place to go
                   F   C N.C.
I said that I want you

[Verse 3]
D                       Bm
I count my money out to pay for contraband
G                                Em
I carry velvet gloves 'cause the blood gets on your hands
     A#            F
It's easy to comprehend
   A#            F
Mistook me for a friend
   A#            G
Mistook me for a friend

[Chorus]
D
I had a pocket full of presidents, a suitcase full of elements
D
Double-cross of spectacles, a tycoon made of tentacles
D
Went to the carnival for candy and confusion
D
From a House of Silence on a street of disillusion
     Am               Em              G     C     G
That crush and her confectioner said (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
   D              G      Am
Mistook you for a friend
            Em           G     C     G
She took my temperature (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
G
Mistook you for a friend
Am                    Em             G     C     G
Try being free as you think you are (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
   D              G
Mistook you for a friend
Am                        Em             G     C     G
See where it gets you and quite how far (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
   D             G
Mistook me for a friend
   D             G
Mistook me for a friend
   D             G
Mistook me for a friend
   D             G
Mistook me for a friend

[Outro]
