ONLY FOR A MOMENT. (Lola Marsh)
[Intro]
 F   F   C   G(x2)
[Verse]
FLost and found
 CMy mind, but Gonly for a moment
FAll my crimes are Csafe, beneath my Gheart
[Pre-Chorus]
And I Dmtry, oh, I Ftry
To preCtend that I'm Gfine
Tell me Dmwhy, oh, tell me Fwhy
I Cneed you by my Gside
[Chorus]
And suddenly I'm Dmbored, I'm dancing in the Fdark
Counting all the Cbillboards, and the city Glights
I keep all my aDmffection in a paper Fcup
Oh CI, oh GI'm
Running after Dmbluebirds, show you what I've Fgot
Save all my toCmorrows from the lonely Gnights
Can you hear me Dmcrying? Baby I'm alFright
Oh CI, oh GI
[Verse]
FRest your eyes
 CBetter days are Gcoming, I can feel it
FAll my lies are Csafe beside you Gnow
[Pre-Chorus]
And I Dmtry, oh, I Ftry
To preCtend that I'm Gfine
Tell me Dmwhy, oh, tell me Fwhy
I Cneed you by my Gside
[Chorus]
And suddenly I'm Dmbored, I'm dancing in the Fdark
Counting all the Cbillboards, and the city Glights
I keep all my aDmffection in a paper Fcup
Oh CI, oh GI'm
Running after Dmbluebirds, show you what I've Fgot
Save all my toCmorrows from the lonely Gnights
Can you hear me Dmcrying? Baby I'm alFright
Oh CI, oh GI
[Bridge]
 DmYou stayed Fonly for a moment
 CI said "GStay with me a while"
 DmYou faded Flike a pretty snowflake
 CThat I was Gholding in my hand
 DmYou stayed Fonly for a moment
 CI said "GStay with me a while"
 DmYou faded Flike a pretty snowflake
           C                   GN.C.
 That I was holding in my hand
[Instrumental]
F F C G
[Outro]
FLost and found
             C                  GN.C.
