Capo : fret 1
(Intro) AmGFCAmG
saturday sunset we're lying on my bed
FC
with five hours to go..
AmG
fingers entwined and so were our minds
FC
crying I don't want you to go..
AmG
you wiped away tears but not fears
FC
under the still and clear indigo..
Am
you said, baby don't cry,
G
we'll be fine you're the one thing
FC
I swear I can't outgrow..
Am
my mother said the younger me
G
was a pretending prodigy
FC
well nothing, then, much has changed..
Am
coz 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
Am
how is it now
G
that somehow you're a stranger
FC
you were mine.. just yesterday..
Am
I prayed the block in my airway
G
dissipates and instead
FC
deters your airplane's way..
D
but heaven denied..
F
destiny decried..
D
something beautiful died..
F
too soon..
(Chorus)
C
but I'm letting go..
Am
I'm givin' 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
CAm
I guess this is where we say goodbye..
F
I know I'll be alright..
G
someday I'll be fine..
AmGF
but just not tonight.. (oooh..)
AmG
plunging into all kinds of diversions
FC
like blush wine and sonorous soirees..
AmG
but even with gin and surgin' adrenaline
FC
I see you're all that can intoxicate..
Am
oceans and engines,
GF
you're skilled at infringin' on great..
C
love affairs..
Am
'cause now my heart's home
G
all I've known is long gone
FC
and ten thousand miles away..
DF
and I'm not okay..
(Chorus)
-GC
but I'm letting go..
Am
I'm givin' 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
CAm
I guess this is where we say goodbye..
F
I know I'll be alright..
G
but just not
Am
tonight was the first time
G
I stared into seas of beguiling sepia
F
two years ago..
C
and the first time
Am
I learned real world superpowers
G
lived in three words and could revitalize
F
my frayin' bones..
C
uh.. now what do you do when
Am
your pillar crumbled down,
you've lost all solid ground,
G
both dreams and demons drowned,
and this void is all
F
you've found and doubts..
C
light it aglow?
Am
I have so many questions..
G
but I'm pourin them into the ocean
F
and I'm starting up my engine..
(Chorus)
C
and I'm letting go..
Am
I'm givin' 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..
Am
this is the last falsetto
FFm
I'll ever sing to you my great
C
lost love..
