Intro
F Dm Am C
[Verse]
F
Uh-oh, my story's not
Dm
The oldest of its kind
Am
I was too touched to see you clearly
C
Far too young to realize
F
I, I had loved so dearly
Dm
You, whose world I had designed
Am
But the sweet smoke came with mirrors
C
And it brought tears to my wide eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
A# C
Dying just to see you
A# C
Dying since I misconstrued
[Chorus]
F C
Your blue heart, black eyes
A# Dm C
Fading, falling, words I won't forget
F C A#
I died right when I saw you
Dm C
While you shared that cigarette
[Solo]
F Dm Am C
[Verse]
F
Uh-oh I saw you
Dm
Every time I closed my eyes,
Am
In the Hughes film I had scored,
C
Produced and starred in, in my mind.
F
I could recite you,
Dm
Well, I'd written every line
Am
But you strayed far from my flawless script
C
On which I'd spent a lifetime
[Pre-Chorus]
A# C
Falling over dead
A# C
Dying since I had misread
[Chorus]
F C
Your blue heart, black eyes
A# Dm C
Fading, falling, words I won't forget
F C A#
I died right when I saw you
Dm C
While you shared that cigarette
