E B
He thought he was the King of America
A E B
Where they pour Coca Cola just like vintage wine
E B
Now I try hard not to become hysterical
A E B
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 C#m
Like it was common sense
[Chorus]

It was a fine idea at the time
E C#m A B
Now it's a brilliant mistake

E B
She said that she was working for the F#BC News
A E B
It was as much of the alphabet as she knew how to use
E B
Her perfume was unspeakable, it lingered in the air
A E B
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

He came third or fourth and there were more than one or two

E B
He thought he was the King of America
A E B
But it was just a boulevard of broken dreams
E B
F# trick they do with mirrors and with chemicals
A
The words of love in whispers
E B
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 C#m
Like it was common sense
[Chorus]

I was a fine idea at the time
E C#m A B
Now I'm a brilliant mistake
