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

We all want
|G#m C#m |F# B |G# C#m |
G#m C#m
We all want
|G#m C#m |C#m |
[Chorus]
G#m C#m
Oh, was it in the mad loves
E B
And the big fights
G#m C#m
So was it in the small change
E B
And the passing updates
G#m C#m
So was it in the giving up
F# B
And the getting on
G#m C#m
No, was it in the mad love
[Outro]
G#m C#m
So was it in the mad love
G#m C#m
So was it in the mad love
G#m C#m
So was it in the mad love
G#m C#m
So was it in the mad love
E C#m
And the big fights
