intro : A#m G# F# C#
A#m G#
saturday sunset , we’re lying on my bed
F# C#
with five hours to go . .
A#m G#
fingers entwined and so were our minds crying
F# C#
i don’t want you to go . .
A#m G#
you wiped away tears but not fears
F# C#
under the still and clear . . indigo . .
A#m G#
you said baby don’t cry , we’ll be fine
F# C#
you’re the one thing i swear i can’t outgrow . .
A#m
my mother said the younger me
G#
was a pretending’ prodigy
F# C#
well nothing then , much has changed . .
A#m
cause while you’re wolfing down liquor
G#
my soul it gets sicker
F#
but i’m stickin’ to the screenplay ,
gotta say i’m okay , but answer this babe
A#m
how is it now
G#
that somehow you’re a stranger
F# C#
you were mine . . just yesterday . .
A#m
i pray the block in my airway
G# F#
dissipates and instead deters
C#
your airplane’s way . .
D# F#
but heaven denied . . destiny decried . .
D# F#
something beautiful died . . too soon . .
reff :
C#
but i’m letting go . .
A#m
i’m giving up the ghost
F#
but don’t get me wrong . .
i’ll always love you , that’s why
G#
i wrote you this very last song . .
C# A#m
i guess this is where we say goodbye . .
F#
i know i’ll be alright . .
G#
someday i’ll be fine . .
( A#m )
but just not tonight . .
int . A#m G# F#
( uuu . . uuh . . )
A#m G#
plunging into all kinds of diversions
F# C#
like blush wine and sonorous soiraes
A#m G#
but even with gin and surgin’ adrenaline
F# C#
i see you’re all that can intoxicate . .
A#m G#
oceans and engines , you’re skilled
F# C#
at infringing on great love affairs
A#m G#
cause now my heart’s home , all i’ve known
F# C#
is long gone and ten thousand miles away . .
D# F#
and i’m not okay . .
reff :
– G# C#
but i’m letting go . .
A#m
i’m giving up the ghost
F#
but don’t get me wrong . .
i’ll always love you , that’s why
G#
i wrote you this very last song . .
C# A#m
i guess this is where we say goodbye . .
F# G#
i know i’ll be alright . . but just not –
A#m
tonight was the first time
G#
i stared into seas of beguiling sepia
F# C#
two years ago . .
A#m
and the first time i learned real world
G#
superpowers lived in three words
F# C#
they revitalized my fraying bones , oh . .
A#m
now what do you do when your pillar
crumbled down , you’ve lost
G#
all solid ground , both dreams
and demons drowned , and this void’s
F#
all you’ve found and doubts . .
C#
light it aglow?
A#m
i have so many questions . .
G#
but i’m pouring them into the ocean
F#
and i’m starting up my engine . .
reff :
C#
and i’m letting go . .
A#m
i’m giving up your ghost
F#
it’s come to a close . .
i marked the end
G#
with this last song i wrote . .
C#
i’m letting go . .
A#m
this is the last falsetto . .
F# F#m
i’ll ever sing to you my great
C#
lost love . .
