[Intro]
Am F C E
[Verse 1]
Back then it almoAmst felt,
Heaven senFt
With sClow dancing models
In a childE's ornament
Kept sAmpinning our heads full of stFars
Don't Cknow what we had
But we kEnew it was ours
With one Amhand on the small of her baFck
The Cother in hers, as we moEved to the track
That was plAmaying in our heads all aFlong
The syCmphony silent, a bEeautiful song
We were Flovers, we were doomed from the sCtart
It was Eall broken clockwork, the daAmncers both fall apart
Maybe Fit was a dream, and EI just woke Amup
F C E      Am F C E
[Verse 2]
The Amgirl sits alone with her aFrt
SeCems her words are the only way
To Emend her broken heart
Like her Amlife is the fiction not fFound
Her real iCmage in writing is sEtaring straight back
Her proAmtagonist has broken Fhope
The tCypewriter pause, then the wEords come out slowly
Like tAmeardrops, fall on the paFge
In an iCnstant her soul, releEased from its cage
She wrote
You were Flaying there dying,
Like the Cend of a western
Saying Etell me what Europe is lAmike
I said Ftell me yourself, we can Ego when you feel riAmght
F C E      Am F C E
[Verse 3]
At the cAmoast, every star seems so Fnear
But you wCouldn't know each, had been gEone all those years
And the Amocean rose on like a dFream
And inCto the distance, foreEver it seems

All chords relative to capo

[Intro]

Am F C E

[Verse 1]

Back then it almost felt,

Heaven sent

With slow dancing models

In a child's ornament

Am F

Kept spinning our heads full of stars

Don't know what we had

But we knew it was ours

Am F

With one hand on the small of her back

C E

The other in hers, as we moved to the track

Am F

That was playing in our heads all along

C E

The symphony silent, a beautiful song

F C

We were lovers, we were doomed from the start

E Am

It was all broken clockwork, the dancers both fall apart

F E Am

Maybe it was a dream, and I just woke up

F C E Am F C E

[Verse 2]

Am F

The girl sits alone with her art

Seems her words are the only way

To mend her broken heart

Am F

Like her life is the fiction not found

C E

Her real image in writing is staring straight back

Am F

Her protagonist has broken hope

C E

The typewriter pause, then the words come out slowly

Am F

Like teardrops, fall on the page

C E

In an instant her soul, released from its cage

She wrote

You were laying there dying,

Like the end of a western

E Am

Saying tell me what Europe is like

F E Am

I said tell me yourself, we can go when you feel right

F C E Am F C E

[Verse 3]

Am F

At the coast, every star seems so near

C E

But you wouldn't know each, had been gone all those years

Am F

And the ocean rose on like a dream

C E

And into the distance, forever it seems
