[Verse]
E                                           Dsus4
It's later on a Wednesday, the sun is going down
    D                            F#m
I'm standing naked by a swimming pool, there's no one around
   E                         Esus4              Dsus4
My imagination wanders back, red dust is always there
   D                               A               E
We lay together in the jungle, and love was in the air
 
[Verse]
     E                                         Dsus4
As I dive into the water, both time and motion freeze
    D                       F#m
I'm hanging there suspended like a feather in the breeze
E                                 Esus4          Dsus4
Below is your reflection, like an image from the past
               D                                      A                E
But I can't be sure if it's really you, 'cause you're wearing a tribal mask
 
[Chorus]
E            D            A
Take it off, take off the mask
E            D            A
Take it off, take off the mask
E            D            A
Take it off, take off the mask
E            D            A
Take it off, take off the mask
 
[Verse]
      E                        Esus4         Dsus4
There is no way of knowing how long I must remain
D                           F#m
Dangling like a statue, and whispering your name
     E                                 Dsus4
But suddenly it's over, and I begin to fall
        D                              A              E
But the swimming pool is empty now, no water there at all
 
[Verse]
   E                                    Dsus4
I find myself in a room, empty and it's bare
     D                           F#m
With nothing but a mirror, and I know you're waiting there
    E                                              Dsus4
I'm looking for an answer, but I don't know who to ask
  D                          A                    E
I see my own reflection, but this time, I got the mask
 
[Bridge]
A       G       D           G
  Can't take it,    I can't take it
A       G       D           G      E
  Can't take it,    I can't take it
 
[Chorus]
E            D            A
Take it off, take off the mask
E            D            A
Take it off, take off the mask
E            Dsus2        A
Take it off, take off the mask
E            Dsus2        A
Take it off, take off the mask

A         G       F#m    G
Ah! Can't take it aaah oooh
A       G         F#m    G
I can't take it, aaah no
A       G         F#m       G
I can't take it, aaah can't take it
A          G        F#m    G
Ah I can't take it, no no no
 
[Chorus]
E            D            A
Take it off, take off the mask
E            Dsus2        A
Take it off, take off the mask
E            D            A
Take it off, take off the mask
E            D            A
Take it off, take off the mask
