Chorus 1
Bb/D
Ebsus2
Gm7
And I couldn't tell you enough
F/A
that I'm sorry
Bb/D
Ebsus2
Gm7
And no, you couldn't tell me enough
F/A
that you love me
Bb/D
But she's bringin' the moon
Ebsus2
and stars to me
Gm7
F/A
Damn permanent reverie
Bb/D
Ebsus2
And even though this life, this love is brief
Gm7
F/A
I've got some people who carry me
Verse 2
Gm7
Wasn't it love
Bb
soon as we knew each other properly?
Ebsus2
Livin' 'bout half right
'til a certain person got to me
Gm7
Nothin' is secret, everythin's sacred,
Bb
how it ought to be
Ebsus2
Under the moonlight on a clear night
On rooftops is where I want to be
Gm7
Sometimes I'm like a child,
Bb
that's somethin' I can't release
Ebsus2
Dreams of her comin' home, sweet home
And I'm tellin' you home is so sweet
Gm7
Said you reminded me of the summertime,
Bb
and I still mean that
Ebsus2
In a full room, I'm the only one she's smilin' at
Verse 3
Gm7
So wouldn't you let me know
Bb
if you were thinkin' less of me?
Ebsus2
That's what she asked me
What was promised, what we both agreed
Gm7
But truthfully, if you ever go
Bb
You'll drop me straight to Hell, the 7th circle
Ebsus2
And I was talkin' with you earlier
We were open and vulnerable,
Gm7
it was wonderful
Bb
Ebsus2
I, used to dream that you would talk to me
Gm7
Bb
I used to dream
Ebsus2
that you would talk to me
Chorus 2
Bb/D
Ebsus2
Gm7
And I couldn't tell you enough
F/A
that I'm sorry
Bb/D
Ebsus2
Gm7
And no, you couldn't tell me enough
F/A
that you love me
Bb/D
But she's bringin' the moon
Ebsus2
and stars to me
Gm7
F/A
Damn permanent reverie
Bb/D
Ebsus2
And even though this life, this love is brief
Gm7
F/A
I've got some people who carry me
Bridge 1
Bb/D
You know that feelin'
when you think your heart
Ebsus2
Gm7
is gonna come right out through your shirt?
F/A
Bb/D
Get it a couple times a year
Ebsus2
But I've been gettin' it
Gm7
F/A
more often with her
Bb/D
Now when I'm face to face with death,
Ebsus2
I'll grab his throat
Gm7
F/A
And ask him, "How does it hurt?"
Bb/D
Up in those golden moments,
Ebsus2
growin' old too quickly
Gm7
F/A
Was he thinkin' of her?
Chorus 3
Bb/D
But she's bringin' the moon
Ebsus2
and stars to me
Gm7
F/A
Damn permanent reverie
Bb/D
Ebsus2
And even though this life, this love is brief
Gm7
F/A
I've got some people who carry me
