E                  A
She was married to somebody else

I was lonely and lived by myself

E           Bm                 F#m F#m7
Baby, that's a battle you can't win

E                A
So we met and we started the clock

Did that help -- no it did not

E          Bm               F#m F#m7
But I guess I knew that going in

Dsus2 A/C# E/B A/C#

    Dsus2       A/C#     E/B    A/C#
And watched the sweeping second hand

Dsus2              D   Dsus2 D Dmaj7
But at least I was calm

A                  E           Bm6                      D(1stx Dsus2 D Dmaj7)
On the road to the big observatory where the planets were hung

And the stars swung around the second story and we stumbled upon

  A                     F#m        
A room where a luminous moon was waning

     Dsus2 D Dmaj7 Dsus2 A/C#   E/B     A/C#
And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond

Dsus2              D       D A/C# Bm
But at least I was calm

E                    A
Fun is fun, but when push comes to shove

When it's done, we deny it was love

E          Bm                       F#m F#m7
She'll say Jim -- I think it's a mistake

E                     A
And the room where we looked at the sky

Will be there with its telescope eye

E           Bm            F#m F#m7
Just another sentry kept awake

Dsus2 A/C# E/B A/C#

Dsus2    A/C# E/B   A/C#
Watching over silverlake

Dsus2              D   Dsus2 D Dmaj7
But at least I was calm

A                  E            Bm6                    D(1stx Dsus2 D Dmaj7)

And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond

Dsus2              D   D A/C# Bm
But at least I was calm

              F#m     Bm                   E Esus4 E Esus4
And you'll be glad to leave with dignity intact

She won't be sad so much as matter-of-fact

           Bm                  F#m          D   D A/C# Bm F#
And it was doomed and hopeless as a suicide pact

[solo] Bm D A E 2x Dsus2 A/C# E/B A/C# Dsus2 A/C# E/B A/C#

  Dsus2            D   Dsus2 D Dmaj7
But at least I was calm

And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond

Dsus2              D    D A/C# Bm
But at least I was calm

    A      E       D       Asus2
At least I managed to stay calm
