Verse
Fm A#m D# G#
Let 'em tell us stories as we lie in the fields
Fm A#m D#
And watch the birds soar above
Fm A#m
Let 'em tell us of love and loss
D# G#
How we'll live and how we'll die
Fm A#m D#
'Cause they say he once was
Fm A#m
Somebody with a black suit
D# G# Fm A#m
And good shoes, and a perfect smile
D#
It makes me want to ask
[Chorus]
Fm A#m
Oh, was it in the mad loves
C# G#
And the big fights
Fm A#m
So was it in the small change
C# G#
And the passing updates
Fm A#m
So was it in the giving up
D# G#
And the getting on
Fm A#m
No, was it in the mad love
Fm A#m
So was it in the mad love
Fm A#m
So was it in the mad loves
C#
And the big fights
[Verse 2]
Fm A#m D# G#
We'll let 'em tell us stories as we lie in the fields
Fm A#m D#
And watch the clouds pass above
Fm A#m
How paper burns and pictures fade
D# G#
Only melody remains
Fm A#m
And sure enough he laughs as if he knows
D# G#
Makes me want to ask
[Chorus]
Fm A#m
Oh, was it in the mad loves
C# G#
And the big fights
Fm A#m
So was it in the right words
C# G#
At the right times
Fm A#m
So was it in the giving up
D# G#
And the moving on
Fm A#m
No, was it in the mad love
Fm A#m
So was it in the mad love
Fm A#m
So was it in the mad loves
C# C#
So was it in the little things, we all want
[Bridge]

We all want
|Fm A#m |D# G# |F A#m |
Fm A#m
We all want
|Fm A#m |A#m |
[Chorus]
Fm A#m
Oh, was it in the mad loves

And the big fights

And the passing updates
Fm A#m
So was it in the giving up
D# G#
And the getting on

No, was it in the mad love
[Outro]
Fm A#m
So was it in the mad love
Fm A#m
So was it in the mad love

So was it in the mad love
