[Intro]
Amaj7 Gmaj7 x3
[Verse 1]
Amaj7 Gmaj7
You once asked me what I wanted out of life
Amaj7 E7sus
Well, I guess it’s just the life of laughter and smiles,
E7sus
To be Cinderella-man for a while
Amaj7 Gmaj7
But there’s so many miles I got to go
Dmaj7 E7sus
You once asked me what I wanted out of life
Amaj7 E7sus
Well, I guess it’s just the white, white of a light when you love me all night
Amaj7 Gmaj7
But this is brightness so dazzling my head must turn
Gmaj7 Amaj7
You know my head must turn
[Midtro]
G A x2
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 G
Things are better in the East, they say
Fmaj7 G
For a poet and his fevers
Fmaj7 G
A fellow with all those fancy words,
Fmaj7 G
His heartbreak and his favors
[Verse 2]
Amaj7 E7sus
I feel like a little white kitten reborn
Amaj7 Gmaj7
I’m very fond of fog, but my sight is torn
Amaj7 E7sus
I’d like to remember it just like this if I can :
Amaj7 Gmaj7
The rain, the fog, and the kiss you send
G6 Aadd9
You know I love you, just like you always wanted
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 G
I could protect you from the bells in the city
Fmaj7 G
I was raised with forget-me-nots in my hair
Fmaj7 G
Even if it ain’t true, won’t you please take me with you ?
Fmaj7 G
You’ve got moon on your side over there
[Versend]
Amaj7 E7sus
Hey, Lady Swan. Whatcha doin' here ?
Amaj7 Gmaj7
How am I gonna write if you don’t live anywhere ?
Amaj7 E7sus
Just caught a flash of lightning as it photographed the sky
G6 Aadd9
You don’t mind. Oh my. Oh my.
