A F#m D
[Verse]~
A F#m D A F#m D
You said I'll come back,.. I'll come back for you my love,.. wait for me
A F#m D A F#m D A
You said you're the only,.. you've been the only one I love,.. and love believes
[Chorus]~
F#m D A E F#m D A E
But love is a bird that you kept in your coat,.. warm until it died in the dark
F#m D A E
And death is the love of what hurts you the most
D A
So you drink your day away till you're warm as paradise
A G#m F#m D A
I'm not hurt I'm broken,.. but I called to say I'm fine
A G#m F#m D A
And I heard you had another love,.. but I'd love you to think I don't mind
A G#m F#m D A
The baby in your arms ain't mine,.. but I made believe as though it was
A G#m F#m D
And I didn't mean to call this late but I think I'm in love With the thought of us
[Bridge]~
A F#m D A
A F#m D A
[Verse]~
A
So you drink your day away till the liquor in your mouth laughs,..
F#m
And mirrors paint you beautiful like older photographs,..
D A
But we grow,.. we grow old,.. even this won't last
A
No one understands,.. no one cares at all
F#m
And they're tearing down our sacred places in the hall
D A
You know I hate to dance,.. still you ask,.. still you ask for my hand
A F#m
I love you like the kids love throwing bottles off the bridge
A D A
And breaking in to trade your fix for American shoes
F#m
For American shoes,..
A D
I've been dying to lie awake in a room for two
A F#m D A F#m D
I'll come back,.. I'll come back for you my love
[Chorus]~
F#m D A E F#m D A E
But love is a bird that you kept in your coat,.. warm until it died in the dark
F#m D A E
And death is the love of what hurts you the most
