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