Verse
C#
It was the summer I
G#m
Learned to love politics
F#
And Elliott Smith 'cause you did
C#
Swinging in the backyard
G#m
Wind in my hair and words
F#
You're playing it cool like a kid
[Chorus]
B
But I'm the kind of girl that you write songs about
F#
Mystery you can't get out your head before you sleep at night
Once in a lifetime
B
You're taking pictures you can't bear to lose
Be the artist to my muse
F#
I think dying is a beautiful thing to do
B F#
By your side
[Verse]
C#
I bleed on paper so the
G#m F#
Fact of the fiction is alive on the page when I'm gone
C#
Coming undone in dark corridors
G#m
We're catching our breath just for a moment
F#
And I could waste all of my timе in between the lines
[Chorus]
B
'Causе I'm the kind of girl that you write songs about
F#
Mystery you can't get out your head before you sleep at night
Once in a lifetime
B
You're taking pictures you can't bear to lose
Be the artist to my muse
F#
I think dying is a beautiful thing to do
B F#
By your side
[Bridge]
C#
Every movement in my rear view
G#m
And every place in reference to you
F#
If nothing else, can I be your regret?
Years from now
[Chorus]
B
I'm the kind of girl that you write songs about
F#
Mystery you can't get out your head before you sleep at night
Once in a lifetime
B
You're taking pictures you can't bear to lose
Be the artist to my muse
F#
I think dying is a beautiful thing to do
B F#
By your side
