E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
E MajorE A augmentedA
She was married to somebody else
I was lonely and lived by myself
E MajorE B minorBm F# minorF#m F#m7F#m7
Baby, that's a battle you can't win
E MajorE A augmentedA
So we met and we started the clock
Did that help -- no it did not
E MajorE B minorBm F# minorF#m F#m7F#m7
But I guess I knew that going in
Dsus2Dsus2 A/C#A/C# E/B A/C#A/C#
Dsus2Dsus2 A/C#A/C# E/B A/C#A/C#
And watched the sweeping second hand
Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7
But at least I was calm
A augmentedA E MajorE Bm6Bm6 D(1stx Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7)
On the road to the big observatory where the planets were hung
And the stars swung around the second story and we stumbled upon
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
A augmentedA room where a luminous moon was waning
Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7 Dsus2Dsus2 A/C#A/C# E/B A/C#A/C#
And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond
Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD D MajorD A/C#A/C# B minorBm
But at least I was calm
E MajorE A augmentedA
Fun is fun, but when push comes to shove
When it's done, we deny it was love
E MajorE B minorBm F# minorF#m F#m7F#m7
She'll say Jim -- I think it's a mistake
E MajorE A augmentedA
And the room where we looked at the sky
Will be there with its telescope eye
E MajorE B minorBm F# minorF#m F#m7F#m7
Just another sentry kept awake
Dsus2Dsus2 A/C#A/C# E/B A/C#A/C#
Dsus2Dsus2 A/C#A/C# E/B A/C#A/C#
Watching over silverlake
Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7
But at least I was calm
A augmentedA E MajorE Bm6Bm6 D(1stx Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7)
On the road to the big observatory where the planets were hung
And the stars swung around the second story and we stumbled upon
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
A augmentedA room where a luminous moon was waning
Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD Dmaj7Dmaj7 Dsus2Dsus2 A/C#A/C# E/B A/C#A/C#
And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond
Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD D MajorD A/C#A/C# B minorBm
But at least I was calm
F# minorF#m B minorBm E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE Esus4Esus4
And you'll be glad to leave with dignity intact
She won't be sad so much as matter-of-fact
B minorBm F# minorF#m D MajorD D MajorD A/C#A/C# B minorBm F#F#
And it was doomed and hopeless as a suicide pact
solo: B minorBm D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE 2x

But at least I was calm

At least I managed to stay calm
