[Intro] C  Am  G  E
        C  Am  G  E

[First Part]

C                        Am
Who's gonna stop us from waltzing
                    G
Back into rekindled flames?
      E
If we know the steps anyway
C                  Am
We embroidered the memories
                  G
Of the time I was away
           E
Stitching, "We were just kids, babe"
F                      Am
I said, "I don't mind, it takes time"
G               E
I thought I was better safe than starry-eyed
F             Am
I felt aglow like this
G            E
Never before and never since

[Chorus]

    C         G       Am
The rain came pouring down
                     F
When I was drownin', that's when I could finally breathe
C        G        Am
  And by mornin', gone was any trace of you
F
I think I am finally clean

( C  Am  G  E )

[Segunda Parte]

C                       Am
Who's gonna tell me the truth
                                   G
When you blew in with the winds of fate
    E
And told me I reformed you
C                       Am
When your impressionist paintings of Heaven
                 G
Turned out to be fakes
      E
Well, you took me to hell, too
F                Am
And all at once, the ink bleeds
G                 E
A con man sells a fool a get-love-quick scheme
F                 Am
But I felt a hole like this
G             E
Never before, and ever since

[Chorus]

C                 Am
If you know it in one glimpse

It's legendary
G                       E
What we thought was for all time

Was momentary
C                    Am
Still alive, killing time at the cemetery
G                 E
Never quite buried
        F                  Am
You cinephile in black and white
          G                 E
All those plot twists and dynamite
               F                   Am
Mr. Steal Your Girl, then make her cry
                              G
You said I'm the love of your life

[Bridge]

C                       G
How long could we be a sad song
             Am       G              F
'Til we were too far gone to bring back to life?
                  C                      G
I gave you all my best me's, my endless empathy
          Am       G           F
And all I did was bleed as I tried to be the bravest soldier
G
Fighting in only your army
Am
Frontlines, don't you ignore me
F
I'm the best thing at this party
C       Em
(You're losin' me)
G
And I wouldn't marry me either
Am
A pathological people pleaser
F
Who only wanted you to see her
C       Em
And I'm fadin', thinkin'
Am                   F
"Do something, babe, say something" (say something)
G                             C       Em
"Lose something, babe, risk something" (you're losin' me)
Am                             F
"Choose something, babe, I got nothing (got nothing)
   G
To believe unless you’re choosing me

[Ponte 2]

          Dm                    C
'Cause you talked me under the table
                          Am
Talking rings and talking cradles
                    G
I wish I could un-recall
                     Dm
How we almost had it all
                        C
Dancing phantoms on the terrace
                        Am
Are they second-hand embarrassed
                        G
That I can't get out of bed?
                                   C
Cause something counterfeit's dead
Am
It was legendary
G
It was momentary
C  Am
   It was unnecessary
G.                          E
Should've let it stay buried
                   F
Oh, what a valiant roar
             Am
What a bland goodbye
           G                    E
The coward claimed he was a lion
            F                     Am
I'm combing through the braids of lies
            G
"I'll never leave"
E
"Never mind"
             F                   Am
Our field of dreams, engulfed in fire
             G                 E
Your arson's match your somber eyes
               F              Am
And I'll still see it until I die
                      G
You're the loss of my life
