when he drops you off i will not say
Em Am Em Am
who was that who so quickly drove away
Am7 F C G C fill
the things you’ve done and the places you’ve been
Em Am Em Am
when i open the door for you i will not let them in
Am7 F C G C fill
as long as you come back to me i will never ask
Em Am Em Am
for you i will be the man in the iron mask
bridge fill
Am7 F C G C fill
you said you loved me and it broke my heart
Em Am Em Am
i was always your prisoner right from the start
Am7 F C G C fill
the nights you spend without me this house is like a dungeon
Em Am Em Am
and you only return to torture me more
Am7 F C G C fill
you must have your reasons , i will not ask
Em Am Em Am
for you i will be the man in the iron mask
