This song has no introduction, but if you want to do the introduction Brian May played in Japan in 1981, it is shown here.

Japan 1981 Intro : G   C   Dsus4 D   G    (play high G note, pause and then start vocals)
Verse 1
   G       D/F#   Em7  D/F# G               C      G       Am
It started off so well	       they said we made a perfect pair
  C         D               G           C  	       G       C   G    D
I clothed myself in your glory and your love, how I loved you, how I cried.
     Am             G   C           Am            C     G  D
The  years of care and loyalty were nothing but a sham, it seems
    C       D      G       C        G         C     G
The years belie we lived a lie I_ll love you 'til I die.

 

Chorus 1
D        A/C#     G    D	           	   E7    A     G x xx
Save me, save me, save me.	I can_t face this life alone.
D        A/C#     D    G Gm         D             C   G    D
Save me, save me, save me.	I'm naked and I'm far from home.

 

Verse 2
    G          D/F#    Em7  D/F# G        C        G   Am
The slate will soon be clean	    I'll erase the memories,
   C      D         G        C  	        G       C   G    D
To start again with somebody new, was it all wasted, all that love.
  Am           G     C           Am       C    G  D
I hang my head and I advertise a soul for sale or rent
  C       D         G      C      G       C      G   x x x x x x
I have no heart I'm cold inside I have no real intent.
D        A/C#     G    D	           	   E7    A     G x xx
Save me, save me, save me.	I can't face this life alone.
D        A/C#     D    G Gm         D             C   G    Am
Save me, save me, save me.	I'm naked and I_m far from home.

     C       D             G         C        G         C     G
Each night I cry I still believe the lie I'll love you 'til I die.

D        A/C#     D    G Gm           D              C G   D     G xx x xx
Save me, save me, save me.	Don_t let me face my life alone
D	  A/C#    D G  Gm        D             C   G    D
