Chorus:
      Em
Well, I thought that one day
C                 B7
 You and me would run away
    Em
Did I make a mistake
   C        B7
Of saving my someday
   Em           Em/C#
So write on the headstone
C             B7
Here lies the unknown
    Am
The wand breaks and love cries
    C            B7
The day that the magic dies

Verse:
Em9              A6
 I speak the eulogy
              Em9
To everyone I see
                   C  B7
It doesn't comfort me
Em9            A6
 The requiem I wrote
                  Em9
For love will not grow old
                  C    B7
And we will never know
        Em9      A6
We'll never know
      Em9  A6  B7
Never know

Chorus:
    Em
But I thought that one day
C                 B7
 You and me would run away
    Em
Did I make a mistake
   C        B7
Of saving my someday
   Em           Em/C#
So write on the headstone
C             B7
Here lies the unknown
    Am
The wand breaks and love cries
    C            B7
The day that the magic dies

Verse:
Em                     A6
 Put on the clothes of black
                   Em9
She's never coming back
              C    B7
The family's so sad
Em9                  A6
 I'm damned to being saved
                 Em9
I rise above the grave
               C  B7
A new way everyday

Chorus:
    Em
But I thought that one day
C                 B7
 You and me would run away
    Em
Did I make a mistake
   C        B7
Of saving my someday
   Em           Em/C#
So write on the headstone
C              B7
 Here lies the dead and gone
    Am
The wand broke and the love cried
    C            B7      Em   C B7
The day that the magic dieeeeees
Em    Em/C# C B7  Em Em/C# C B7
 Goodbyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyye
