you deserve a song so long it plays behind the hurt

Dm G C Am

beyond the tears, beyond the courtesy of elementary melodies

Dm G

and chord progressions much like these

C Em Am Em

to love and be loved

[Hook 1]

C Am Dm A

who’d have thought it’d be so mysterious?

Dm G C Am

it would be painful without bruises and subject to who chooses

Dm G C Am C Am

to pull the plug and hope that no one sinks

[Verse 2]

C Am Dm A

you deserve a song so long it plays beyond the fade

Dm G C Am

beyond the place where all our memories repeat into eternity

Dm G C Em Am Em

preserving them so bittersweet, for better or worse

[Hook 2]

C Am Dm A

what’s the harm in a little disillusion?

Dm G C Am

a little rosy hue and a drink to see it through

Dm G C Am C Am

to separate my logic from my ways

[Bridge]

Dm G C Am C Am

and I can and I will, and I can, and I will move on

Dm G C Am C Am

and you can and you will, and you can, and you will move on

[Outro]

C Am Dm A Dm G

you deserve a song so long and crafted with hands of love and capability

C Am

so I’ll retire, I’ll keep it brief

admiring you lovingly, so long

C Am C Am

so long

C Am C Am

so long

C Am C Am
