Verse
E
It was the summer I
Bm
Learned to love politics
A
And Elliott Smith 'cause you did
E
Swinging in the backyard
Bm
Wind in my hair and words
A
You're playing it cool like a kid
[Chorus]
D
But I'm the kind of girl that you write songs about
A
Mystery you can't get out your head before you sleep at night
Once in a lifetime
D
You're taking pictures you can't bear to lose
Be the artist to my muse
A
I think dying is a beautiful thing to do
D A
By your side
[Verse]
E

Bm A
Fact of the fiction is alive on the page when I'm gone
E
Coming undone in dark corridors
Bm
We're catching our breath just for a moment
A
And I could waste all of my timе in between the lines
[Chorus]
D
'Causе I'm the kind of girl that you write songs about
A
Mystery you can't get out your head before you sleep at night
Once in a lifetime
D
You're taking pictures you can't bear to lose
Be the artist to my muse
A
I think dying is a beautiful thing to do
D A

[Bridge]

Every movement in my rear view
Bm

A
If nothing else, can I be your regret?
Years from now
[Chorus]
D
I'm the kind of girl that you write songs about
A
Mystery you can't get out your head before you sleep at night
Once in a lifetime
D
You're taking pictures you can't bear to lose
Be the artist to my muse
A
I think dying is a beautiful thing to do
D A
By your side
