Let 'em tell us stories as we lie in the fields

Oh, was it in the mad loves

And the big fights

So was it in the small change
G# D#
And the passing updates
Cm Fm
So was it in the giving up
A# D#
And the getting on
Cm Fm
No, was it in the mad love
Cm Fm
So was it in the mad love
Cm Fm
So was it in the mad loves
G#
And the big fights
