Verse 1:

Emaj7 Now I know this letter is right out of the blue Dmaj7 All I ever wanted was to talk to you Emaj7 In a café, in a moving rented car Dmaj7 Heading to the nearest place that felt like far Amaj7 'Honey,' can I call you that in secret print? Gmaj7 Words will never hurt you if the motive's clear F#m7 All I want for you is joy and peaceful love B Emaj7 Dmaj7 Who you get it from is not my main concern

Verse 2:

Emaj7 It's like a fountain every time I think of you Dmaj7 Turning on the prose that would encircle you Emaj7 Though I messed it up, I figured that I might Dmaj7 See you true and clearly in another life Amaj7 As the rain falls slowly on this sliding roof Gmaj7 I'm inclined to tell you all about the truth F#m7 Years of wondering what you were thinking of B I've given into endless days of being a sloth
Trumpet Solo Emaj7 Dmaj7 (x2)

Verse 3:

Emaj7 If I could have the energy to chase the day Dmaj7 I would end up chasing all the good away Emaj7 Endless youth is wasted on the fallen kid Dmaj7 Down a tunnel of mistakes, they always fled Amaj7 Who is there to pick up on the bloody mess Gmaj7 Who is there to mop their heads with tenderness F#m7 No one human, nobody is good enough B To envelope the human heart when life is rough
Instrumental: C#7 F# B7 E A D7 F#m7 B

Verse 4:

Emaj7 How can this be done? How can I make it through? Dmaj7 Teenage dreams do never what they're meant to do Emaj7 Knock a door and listen to the wisdom speak Dmaj7 Leave your knife, your razor, and your make believe Amaj7 Though the world is fucked according to the news Gmaj7 As we get you out of what you have to do F#m7 Though the world is fucked and swinging to the right B Doesn't get you out of what you have to do tonight
Outro: Emaj7 Dmaj7 (x2) Emaj7
