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

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

He was a fine idea at the time
C Am F G
Now he's a brilliant mistake

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