• Capo on 2nd

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Key: F#

Difficulty: Intermediate

Verse:
E
Now
        F#m
More than any man I know
          C#m
I strap a spacesuit to my chest
                   A            B              E
And watch the planet that I left, it rises slow
         F#m
More than any dream I've dreamt
       C#m
With her Cailin Russo neck
      A                B                   E
I can see her from the deck out by the road
         F#m
More than any girl I've had
        C#m
She could drink and take a drag
            A                         B                E
When you're young, that's all you have, and this I know

Chorus:
C#m        A      E       B
Love's not simple here anymore
C#m          A           F#m               Am                     E
And I've gone mental over how to leave this world and go back home


Verse:
E
She,
         F#m
More than any pretty thing
          C#m
I will miss her most of all
               A         B                 E
When her towers start to fall into the sea
         F#m
More than any life I'd lead
           C#m
I know that one was the best
         A                   B                E
'Cause I spent it on my chest between her knees
              F#m
And her rivers, still they run
        C#m
When they crash into the sun
            A              B               E
In some life will I be young enough to see?


Chorus:
C#m        A     E        B
Love's not simple here anymore
    C#m      A          F#m                      Am
And I've gone mental over how to leave this world and go back home

Solo:
E F#m A G# C#m A B x2

Chorus:
C#m       A      E    B
Love's not simple here anymore
    C#m             A       F#m                  Am               E
And I've gone mental over how to leave this world and go back home

Verse:
        F#m
More than any time before
        C#m
I think I finally figured out
     A           B                          E
Being happy with yourself and with your life


...(take off the capo for this part)

Intro:
E G#m G# A Am E C#m A B E

Verse:
E          G#m
We got pretty stoned
         G#
With your hands on your chest
         A
And my ego

Verse:
   E                G#m
And we, we clung to the roof
        G#                   A
And the morning laid rest all around you
           Am             E                   C#m
And I won't forget how you looked in that dress
      A              B      E
On the day that first I met you

Verse:
E                      G#m
You had all your friends
     G#                        A
And a camera to make them look vintage
E                   G#m
And I, I felt like a king
        G#                      A
When you leaned yourself into my window
   Am                   E         C#m
To sing me a song that I wrote for my mom
       A       B               E
On the day that first I met you

Verse:
G#                 A
And it only took a day
         G#                                    A
With that tattoo of yours, and the look on your face
E                  G#m
You told marry you quick
G#                      A
And I think that you're funny
E           G#m   G#
So much so I think
                    A
That I could be your baby
Am                      E                C#m
And I still regret every word that I said
       A       B              E
On the day that first I met you
