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