Verse
G#
There's a silhouette
Cm
Falling from the sky
Fm
See her there she goes
C# D#
And it's heaven-like
G#
On the count of three
Cm
She would disappear
Fm
Go up in a cloud of smoke
C# D#
So don't close your eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
C# G#
A# cold sweat when I woke up in the dead of night
D#
So lost, Got me so lost
C#
Can't understand why I kept running toward the bright lights
D#
Oh-woah
[Chorus]
G#
It was an ice cold winter of '98
Cm
For forever never felt so far away
Fm
I sang a song and recorded it on video tape
D# C#
Thinking if only I could have back yesterday
G#
It was the last slow dance on a Saturday night
Cm
No, the seconds didn't feel like they were passing by
Fm
She saw me standing in the street in the car headlights
D# C# (n.c.)
With the words before I say goodbye
[Verse 2]

Streamers and balloons

Candles in the cake

We went up the stairs

And walked down the hall

Past your sister's room

And I don't wanna close my eyes

A# cold sweat when I woke up in the dead of night
