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