C  
It's a mystery night 
F 
Like a sawed-off shot gun 
                        C              G 
In the morning light it comes to anyone 
C 
All the strings that follow you 
F 
And the things they're tied to 
                     C                  G 
My love's behind you colored by the snow 
                 C 
The shine is gone 

          F 
I used to know what made you wet 
        C              G 
Now I'm searching for it 
             F 
Cause it's a mystery all the same 
F          C   G 
Not to get you back 

-Chorus- 
Am      F 
On holiday 
       Dm             Am 
With a broken camera 
          F 
And all I say 
      Dm                 Am 
Is "I could be happier" 
G                   C 
I could be happier 

C                     Em 
It's a mystery night 
                          C 
And I thought we had fun 

But in the morning light 
     Dm 
Your cars already gone 
C                         Em 
Do the things I wanna do 
                              C 
Not the ones I'm supposed to 

Why can't I get close to 
    Dm 
The man I saw in me 

When I was young 

-Chorus- 
Am      F 
On holiday 
       Dm             Am 
With a broken camera 
          F 
And all I say 
      Dm                 Am 
Is "I could be happier" 
          F 
And all I say 
  Dm 
Is "I could be happier" 

C 
All up the way 
Em           F                              Dm 
I'm free of all the shadows that follow me 
C                   Em 
Of all the branches up to break 
     F 
With all my faith 

Destiny and fate 
C                   Em            F 
Cause I never wanna go there tonight 

The cameras, cameras 
C             Em           F 
I never wanna open up my eyes 
                          Am  
The cameras, the cameras 
G 
Dm 
No cameras 
            Am 
No cameras  

-ending part- 
G , Em , G , F , Am , Em , G , Dm  

E     Am                       Em 
Cause I never wanna go there tonight 
              G           D 
I never wanna open up my eyes 
Am
