You think he'd realize

But he's infatuated, with ideas
    E minorEm D MajorD         Gmaj7Gmaj7     Cmaj7Cmaj7

Now it's red, now it's death
Cmaj7Cmaj7
Now it's everything she needed
Cmaj7Cmaj7   G+G
Now it's four, open doors

Pillows pressed under your knees
DmDm
Now it's a sad, sappy sucker

To ensure her the ending
