[Verse 1]
                                      D#m
She's staying around or else she's goin away
B                             G#
It could be forever or it might be a day
B                       C#                     F#
Or may be forever I call her a mercury girl
F#                                      D#m
She's building me up & then she's knocking me down
B                               G#7
Like a factory chimney in a northern town
B     C#                F#
And I am demolished I call her a mercury girl

[Chorus]
C#                                     D#m
She never sees me till the sun goes down
B                       F#
Lives in a secret world
C#                                 D#m
Says: her career is in another town
B                       C#
Life with a mercury girl
F#

[Verse 2]
                                     D#m7
One day once when i've got some time
B                             G#
I try to hold her but she wouldn't be mine
B                       C#                     F#
She slipped through my fingers & I missed the mercury girl
F#                                      D#m
She came back to me with her mocking eyes
B                               G#7
She told me she loved me but it could have been lies
B                           C#                        D#m  C#
And life can be up & down, life with a mercury girl
B                            C#                  F#
Life can be up & down, life with a mercury girl
