1. The beast in me
   F              G                C
   Is caged by frail and fragile bars
   F           G
   Restless by day
            C             B             D7
   And by night rants and rages at the stars
   F        G            C
   God help the beast in me
   
2. The beast in me
   Has had to learn to live with pain
   And how to shelter from the rain
   And in the twinkling of an eye
   Might have to be restrained
   God help the beast in me

R: Sometimes it tries to kid me
             F
   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
                   C  F         G      C
   Of the beast in me that everybody knows
   They've seen him out dressed in my clothes
   B          D7
   Patently unclear
           F                 C
   It it's New York or New Year
   F            G        C    F
   God help the beast in me   
   
   G            C
   The beast in me
