  G6               
I stood at the door beside her 
    Cadd9 
But she wouldn't let me pass 
      G6 
I was such a bore and I lied to her 
         Cadd9 
I said I didn't really want her ass 
  Bm(F#)           Em 
I went away in the mud and rain 
    Bm(F#)                Em 
The gang became snide and laughed 
Am                  Am7/G 
I was slayed, but I smiled and the pain 
  Fmaj7          (E  F) 
Began to subside at last 
 
    Bm                    D(A) 
And when I got back to my hotel 
  Bm                                D(A) 
I wondered if the thunder meant I'd landed in hell 
    G                  G6/F#m  
And on the forecourt I slipped and fell 
  Em7                          G6/F#m 
I cracked my stupid head and I heard a bell 
           Esus4      E7  E 
I thought, hey 
 
         A6                    G6   D/A      
Somebody saved me, it happened again 
         A6                       G6  D/A 
Somebody saved me, I thank you my friend 
         A6     E/A                       G6/A  Bm/A 
Somebody saved me, from a fate worse than heaven 
              G6                        (harm: g5 g7) 
'Cause if I'd had her for just an hour 
                       Esus4     E 
I'd have wanted her forever 
         G6/A 
Somebody saved me 
 
You would have thought that I'd have learned 
Twenty years ago or more 
A beautiful girl raised her mouth and yearned 
But I didn't know what lips were for 
I ran away in the mud and rain 
The weather here is never too bright 
She'd had an affray with her man and came 
For solace and the means to fight 
 
She finally bored with seducing me 
And took up with some geezer from the Ealing scene 
It nearly killed him like it would've killed me 
When her original man snapped his fingers and she obeyed, she obeyed 
 
{repeat Chorus} 
 
{bridge} 
A                  Aadd9      E/A 
I don't know about guardian angels 
A                  Aadd9    E/A 
All I know about's staying alive 
Gmaj7               Gmaj9      
I can't shout about spritual labels 
     Gmaj7               Gmaj9  
When little ones die and big ones thrive 
E  E6 
All I know is that I've been making it 
And there've been times that I didn't deserve to 
Every show there's been more faking it 
But right at the point of no return 
 
Somebody saves me, again and again 
Somebody saves me, I thank you my friend 
Somebody saves me, from a fate worse than heaven 
'Cause if I blew it for a single moment 
I'd blow it forever 
But somebody saves me 
 
I took up the connection once 
Made me feel quite aloof 
I never could queue to collect my lunch 
While I was pursuing the truth 
So I left my folks in the mud and rain 
It always rains in Sunnyside Road 
I lived hippy jokes, getting stoned insane 
'Til the rain looked just like snow 
 
But there was a soul in whom I could depend 
He worked himself crazy while I laid in bed 
I never leaned on a person like I leaned right then 
And when I finally woke up clean 
My friend was dead, stone dead 
 
Somebody saved me, it happened again 
Somebody saved me, I thank you my friend 
Somebody saved me, I ain't ready for heaven 
'Cause if I'd seen you for a second I'd have wanted to see you forever 
Somebody saved me
