Elle never read it, she never thought

Across the caves is powder and rust
C G Am Em
Make up words for what you’ve begun
[VERSE TWO]

C G Am C G D
I never wanted to be that song
C G Am C G Em
I’d laugh at anything to carry on
[CHORUS]

Across the caves his diamonds are dust
C G Am Em
Still you’re filled with birthdays and bugs

Gray lost your thoughts in her family’s home after dinner then
Em C Am G
Broke all that fought in her gaudy throne, kids then just to win
[CHORUS]

Hey Mikey, I know it’s right to be great
