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

We all want

[Chorus]
D#m G#m
Oh, was it in the mad loves

And the passing updates
D#m G#m
So was it in the giving up
C# F#
And the getting on
D#m G#m
No, was it in the mad love
[Outro]
D#m G#m
So was it in the mad love

So was it in the mad love

So was it in the mad love
