F
F
We're so sorry we've been gone,
G# A# F
We were busy writing songs for you

We're so sorry we've been gone,
G# A# F
We were busy writing songs for you
Em C
My life started the day I got caught
G
Under the covers
D
With second-hand lovers
Em C
Oh, tied up in pretty young things
G
In a state of emergency
D
Who was I tryna be?
Em
Then the time for being sad is over
C
And you miss 'em like you miss no other
G D
And being blue is better than being over it (over it)
Am Em
It's killing me inside!
Am G
Consuming all my time,
Am
You've left me blind!
Em

Am

B

G A
Don't you remember when I was a bird
C G
And you were a map?
G A
Now he drags down miles in America
C G
Briefcase in hand.
G A
The stove is creeping up his spine again,
C G
Can't get enough trash.
G Am
This is gospel for the fallen ones
Em
Locked away in permanent slumber
G Am
Assembling their philosophies
Em
From pieces of broken memories
G Am Em
Oh, this is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart
G Am Em
Oh, this is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart
G B Em C
Oh don't you wonder when the light begins to fade?
G B Em C
And the clock just makes the colors turn to grey
G B Em C
Forever younger growing older just the same
G B Em C
All the memories that we make will never change
G B
We'll stay drunk, we'll stay tan, let the love remain
Em C
And I swear that I'll always paint you
Em
Oh, well imagine
As I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor
C
And I can't help but to hear
Am
No, I can't help but to hear an exchanging of words
Em
What a beautiful wedding
What a beautiful wedding, says a bridesmaid to a waiter
C
And, yes, but what a shame
Am
What a shame the poor groom's bride is a
C Am F
So pour out some liquor, make it an old-fashioned
C Am
Remember your youth, in all that you do

They were the best of times, they were the best of times

Of your life

The I.V. and your hospital bed
A#
This was no accident

This was a therapeutic chain of events
C B Em Am
My tell-tale heart's a hammer in my chest
C B
Cut me a silk-tied tourniquet
Em
This is my roaring, roaring 20's
C
I don't even know me
G
Roll me like a blunt, 'cause I wanna go home
B
Roll me like a blunt, 'cause I wanna go home
F
Whoa oh oh oh oh, Mona Lisa
Am G
You're guaranteed to run this town
F Dm
Whoa oh oh oh oh, Mona Lisa
Am E
I'd pay to see you frown
Am Dm
If you're a lover, you should know
G
The lonely moments just get lonelier
C
The longer you're in love
F
Than if you were alone
Dm
Memories turn into daydreams
E
Become a taboo
Am Dm
I don't want to be afraid
G
The deeper that I go
C
It takes my breath away
F
Soft hearts electric souls
Dm
Heart to heart and eyes to eyes
E
Is this taboo?
Em
Everybody gets there and everybody gets their
Dm
And everybody gets their way.
Em
I never said I missed her when everybody kissed her,
Dm
Now I'm the only one to blame.
