E A E A

 E                    A
She was married to somebody else

I was lonely and lived by myself
 E             Bm                    F#m     F#m7
Baby, that's a battle you can't win

 E                  A
So we met and we started the clock

Did that help -- no it did not
 E            Bm                  F#m     F#m7
But I guess I knew that going in


Dsus2 A/C# E/B A/C#
     Dsus2             A/C#          E/B        A/C#
And watched the sweeping second hand

 Dsus2                    D     Dsus2       D   Dmaj7
But at least I was calm


A                  E           Bm6                      D(1stx Dsus2 D Dmaj7)
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                       F#m
A room where a luminous moon was waning

      Dsus2       D   Dmaj7       Dsus2       A/C#        E/B         A/C#
And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond

 Dsus2                    D         D   A/C#      Bm
But at least I was calm


 E                      A
Fun is fun, but when push comes to shove

When it's done, we deny it was love
 E            Bm                          F#m     F#m7
She'll say Jim -- I think it's a mistake

 E                       A
And the room where we looked at the sky

Will be there with its telescope eye
 E             Bm               F#m     F#m7
Just another sentry kept awake

Dsus2 A/C# E/B A/C#
 Dsus2          A/C#      E/B       A/C#
Watching over silverlake

 Dsus2                    D     Dsus2       D   Dmaj7
But at least I was calm

A                  E            Bm6                    D(1stx Dsus2 D Dmaj7)
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                      F#m
A room where a luminous moon was waning

     Dsus2       D   Dmaj7       Dsus2       A/C#         E/B         A/C#
And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond

 Dsus2                    D     D   A/C#      Bm
But at least I was calm


               F#m         Bm                      E   Esus4       E   Esus4
And you'll be glad to leave with dignity intact

She won't be sad so much as matter-of-fact
            Bm                     F#m              D     D   A/C#      Bm    F#
And it was doomed and hopeless as a suicide pact


solo: Bm D A E 2x
Dsus2 A/C# E/B A/C#
Dsus2 A/C# E/B A/C#
   Dsus2                  D     Dsus2       D   Dmaj7
But at least I was calm


A                  E           Bm6                      D(1stx Dsus2 D Dmaj7)
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                       F#m
A room where a luminous moon was waning

      Dsus2       D   Dmaj7       Dsus2       A/C#        E/B         A/C#
And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond

 Dsus2                    D      D   A/C#      Bm
But at least I was calm

     A        E         D         Asus2
At least I managed to stay calm
