Lyrics

[Intro]
C             C
 The beast in me

[Verse 1]
F            G                 C
 Is caged by frail and fragile bars
F            G
 Restless by day
             C         A#           D7
And by night rants and rages at the stars

[Chorus]
F       G             C
God help the beast in me
G             C
 The beast in me

[Verse 2]
F           G                  C
 Has had to learn to live with pain
F           G                C
 And how to shelter from the rain
F           G               C             A#
 And in the twinkling of an eye Might have

[Chorus]
         D7
to be restrained
F       G             C
God help the beast in me

[Verse 3]
E7                                           F
  Sometimes it tries to kid me That it's just
a teddy bear
                           C
And even somehow manage to vanish in the air
            G
And that is when I must beware
Of the beast in me

[Verse 4]
C F          G    C
   That everybody knows
F                 G                 C         A#
 They've seen him out dressed in my clothes Pa

[Chorus]
         D7
tently unclear
            F           C
If it's New York or New Year

[Outro]
F    G                 C
 God help the beast in me
F G             C
   The beast in me
