 Our love is dead, (our love is dead)

It won't be dead for long (no not for long)

I'm invisible

  Whatever I have said and done
Ebmaj7                               Fadd9
  Doesn't matter in this chatter and hum
      Fadd9
I'm invisible

I'm here ...but you can't see me

I've become invisible

  Is it magic or the truth?
Ebmaj7                 | Gm | % |
  Strange psychology or justified

By the end of youth?

  It's too late to find an excuse
Ebmaj7                              Fadd9
  The party's over and I'm not much use ... tonight
Ebmaj7             Ebmaj7 :
  Am I tragic or a joke
Ebmaj7                       | Gm | % |
  Wrapped in my invisibility cloak?

  It's a journey so they say
Ebmaj7                            |  Gm  |  %  |
  But in this desert I was only a hazy, lazy mirage

How life is meant to be

Verse 1:
  Fmaj7                 F6
I thought it was like a film
  Gm7              C7
Reviewed but never seen
      Fmaj7                F6
Where everybody played themselves
     Gm7           C7
As a drama king or queen


Verse 2:
    Fmaj7         F6
The music was overwhelming
Gm7            C7
Glittering and thin
Fmaj7                    F6
Solemn and shabby like a requiem
   Gm7              C7
In denim and leopardskin


Verse 3:
  Fmaj7          F6
I visualised the flashbacks:
Gm7                  C7
School, punk rock, success
Fmaj7                F6
Parties, too much of everything
    Gm7                       C7
The clichés, the candles, the mess


Pre-Chorus:
Ebmaj7
Lucien in the scene with David
Bb7sus4    Bb7

A little more rouge on the powdered cheeks
        Bb7sus4
But the base is pale


Chorus:
            Fmaj7
This is our last chance for goodbye
        Bb      C
Let the music begin
Fmaj7
Shining and soaring like a requiem
   Bb               C      | N.C. |
In denim and leopardskin


Verse 4:
   Fmaj7        F6
It ended with a motorbike
  Gm7           C7
A search for evidence
Fmaj7           F6
Poring over old photographs
   Gm7              C7
To make it all fake sense
Fmaj7            F6
Glamorous in its own way
Gm7                C7
Shouting above the din
Fmaj7                    F6
Solemn and shabby like a requiem
   Gm7              C7
In denim and leopardskin

The look is "Let It Rock"
  Ebmaj7
A Johnson's leather jacket
Bb7sus4          Bb7
Hair by Keith at Smile
Ebmaj7
All you need to make it big
   Bb7sus4
Is sex and style

            Fmaj7
This is our last chance for goodbye
        Bb      C
Let the music begin
