A E I know it’s not my business F#m And I know it’s not my right D But the expression on your face A Looks so awkward and contrived E But I know it’s not my business F#m And I know it’s not my right D And I don’t know what to call it But I wouldn’t call it Chorus 1: A E F#m Oh, I’m a rising star, I’m a sinking ship D You’re a work of art, something delicate A You’re my mother’s son E You’re my favorite song F#m D I’m the things you hide When you turn the lights back on A E I’m a one, or two, or three page explanation F#m You’re a getaway vacation D That I hoped would bring salvation It did not A And it’s killing me E You were the only person F#m Who could understand D The things I think inside my head N.C. And somehow you forgot Interlude: A E F#m D Verse 2: A I dated Audrey Hepburns E Just to be Paul Varjack F#m And I picked up all the paychecks D But I never called them back A E I guess I wasn’t fooling anybody F#m But I never knew myself D As well as I knew how to act A E And I know it’s not my business F#m And I know it’s not my right D But you crawl into my bed In the middle of the night A E And you ask me not to leave you F#m But you don’t ask me to stay D And I never can say no A When you look at me like that Chorus 2: E F#m I’m a rising star, I’m a sinking ship D You’re a work of art, something delicate A You’re my mother’s son E No, you’re my favorite song F#m D I’m the things you hide When you turn the lights back on A E I’m a one, or two, or three page explanation F#m That you wouldn’t take the time D To give to anyone at all A E I’m a one, or two or three page explanation F#m That you wouldn’t take the time D To give to anyone Anyone at all Interlude: A E F#m D x2 Bridge: A E Are you overseas now? F#m With the drugs D And all the men A Or are you dead E Or hiding in your loft F#m D Behind your papers and your pens A Just how we met E F#m I never did believe a word they said D The bluest blues A The reddest reds E F#m I never did believe a word they said D They made it up A Even the end
