[Verse]
Cb
Uh-oh, my story's not
G#m
The oldest of its kind
D#m
I was too touched to see you clearly
Gb
Far too young to realize
Cb
I, I had loved so dearly
G#m
You, whose world I had designed
D#m
But the sweet smoke came with mirrors
Gb
And it brought tears to my wide eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
Fb Gb
Dying just to see you
Fb Gb
Dying since I misconstrued
[Chorus]
Cb Gb
Your blue heart, black eyes
Fb G#m Gb
Fading, falling, words I won't forget
Cb Gb Fb
I died right when I saw you
G#m Gb
While you shared that cigarette
[Solo]

[Verse]
Cb
Uh-oh I saw you
G#m
Every time I closed my eyes,
D#m
In the Hughes film I had scored,
Gb
Produced and starred in, in my mind.
Cb
I could recite you,
G#m
Well, I'd written every line
D#m
But you strayed far from my flawless script
Gb
On which I'd spent a lifetime
[Pre-Chorus]
Fb Gb
Falling over dead
Fb Gb
Dying since I had misread
[Chorus]
Cb Gb
Your blue heart, black eyes
Fb G#m Gb
Fading, falling, words I won't forget
Cb Gb Fb
I died right when I saw you
G#m Gb
While you shared that cigarette
