[Intro]
Am G F C…………..
[Verse 1]
Am G F CSaturday sunset- we’re lying on my bed with five hours to go
Am G F CFingers entwined and so were our minds crying ‘I don’t want you to go’
Am G F CYou wiped away tears but not fears under the still and clear indigo
Am G F CYou said, ‘Baby don’t cry, we’ll be fine, you’re the one thing I swear I can’t outgrow’
[Verse 2]
Am G F CMy mother said the younger me was a ‘Pretending’ prodigy well nothing, then, much has changed
Am G FCoz while you’re wolfing down liquor, my soul it gets sicker, but I’m stickin’ to the screenplay, gotta say I’m okay,
but answer this babe:
Am G F CHow is it now that somehow you’re a stranger; you were mine just yesterday—
Am G F CI prayed the block in my airway dissipates and instead deters your airplane’s way
[Pre-Chorus 1]
D7But heaven denied
FDestiny decried
D7Something beautiful died
Ftoo soon
[Chorus]
CBut I’m letting gooooooooo
AmI’m givin’ up the ghost
FBut don’t get me wrong
I’ll always love you that’s why
GI wrote you this very last song
C AmI guess this is where we say goodbye
FI know I’ll be alright
GSomeday I’ll be fine
Ambut just not tonight
[Interlude]
Am G F……….
[Verse 3]
Am G F CPlunging into all kinds of diversions like blush wine and sonorous soirees
Am G F CBut even with gin and surgin’ adrenaline I see you’re all that can intoxicate
Am G F COceans and Engines, you’re skilled at infringin’ on great love affairs
Am G F C’cause now my heart’s home — all I’ve known — is long gone and 10 thousand miles away
[Pre-Chorus 2]
D7 FAnd I’m not okay….
[Chorus]
G CBut I’m letting gooooooooo
AmI’m givin’ up the ghost
FBut don’t get me wrong
I’ll always love you that’s why
GI wrote you this very last song
C AmI guess this is where we say goodbye
F GI know I’ll be alright….
but just not-
[Bridge]
Am G F CTonight was the first time I stared into seas of beguiling sepia two years ago….
and the first time
Am G FI learned real world superpowers lived in three words and could revitalize my frayin’ bones
C..Now what Do you Do when
Am GYour pillar crumbled down, you’ve lost all solid ground, both dreams and demons drowned, and this void is all
F Cyou’ve found and doubts light it aglow?
AmI have so many questions
G FBut I’m pourin them into the ocean and I’m starting up my engine
[Chorus]
Cand I’m letting go
AmI’m givin’ up your ghost
FIt’s come to a close
GI marked the end with this last song I wrote
[Outro]
CI’m letting go
AmThis is the last falsetto
F Fm6 CI’ll ever sing to you my great, lost love.
