[Intro]
Am Dm (8x)
[Verse 1]
F G
The butterflies I'd felt
Am Dm
Had only begun to cut and inch
F G Am
As much as you tried to hide it, I knew
Dm
You were just dying to flip your switch
F G Am Dm
Taught to play dress up, but never learned to play house
F G Am Dm
Fear givin' license to the words falling from your mouth
Am
[Chorus]
C
Our love was lost
Dm
Your heart turned cold
F
And that was when
Am
I let you go
C Dm F Am
Am Dm
[Verse 2]
F G Am Dm
Poking corpses and throwing blame
F G Am
How could I have thought I'd be the one
Dm
To drive the demons away?
F G Am Dm
Romanticism, seduced by the beauty of form
F G Am
Those supple lines, a familiar warmth
Dm
Turned hard and cold as stone
[Bridge]
Am
[Chorus]
C
Our love was lost
Dm
Your heart turned cold
F
And that was when
Am
I let you go
C Dm F Am
[Outro]
C Dm F
Fall back to the upstairs bedroom
Am C
Way back when it all just seemed
Dm F
To make more sense then and fall in place
Am C
There was a time when I felt okay
C Dm F Am
