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

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

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