[Verse 1]
F C
He thought he was the King of America
A# F C
Where they pour Coca Cola just like vintage wine
F C
Now I try hard not to become hysterical
A# F C
But I'm not sure if I am laughing or crying
[Verse 2]
A#
I wish that I could push a button
A# D# A#
And talk in the past and not the present tense
And watch this hurtin' feeling disappear
D# Dm
Like it was common sense
[Chorus]
F D# F D#
It was a fine idea at the time
F Dm A# C
Now it's a brilliant mistake

[Verse 3]
F C
She said that she was working for the GBC News
A# F C
It was as much of the alphabet as she knew how to use
F C
Her perfume was unspeakable, it lingered in the air
A# F C
Like her artificial laughter like her mementos of affairs
[Verse 4]
A#
"Oh" I said "I see you know him"
A# D# A#
"Isn't that very fortunate for you"
And she showed me his calling card
D# Dm
He came third or fourth and there were more than one or two
[Chorus]
F D# F D#
He was a fine idea at the time

Now he's a brilliant mistake

[Verse 5]
F C
He thought he was the King of America
A# F C
But it was just a boulevard of broken dreams
F C
G trick they do with mirrors and with chemicals
A#
The words of love in whispers
F C
And the axe of love in screams
[Verse 6]
A#
I wish that I could push a button
A# D# A#
And talk in the past and not the present tense
And watch this lovin' feeling disappear
D# Dm
Like it was common sense
[Chorus]
F D# F D#
I was a fine idea at the time
F Dm A# C
Now I'm a brilliant mistake
