As recorded by Blur (From the 2023 Album THE BALLAD OF DARREN) [Verse 1]
A                  D
I just looked into my life

             Bm        F#m
And all I saw was that you're not coming back

    D            Bm        C#m
Oh, can't you see when the ballad comes for you

Bm            E
It comes like me?

      A     D
But I won't be afraid

  Bm                        F#m
I can't seem to find you in this midnight parade

  D             Bm
I know it's all true

         C#m                  Bm E
When the ballad comes for me, it comes like you
[Chorus]
Gmaj7    F#m
Up close

       C
I fell in love with you

C
(I met you at an early show)

Gmaj7    F#m C
You fall,    I'll fall along with you

C                                     Gmaj7
(We travelled 'round the world together)
[Interlude] F C Em G [Verse 2]
A                    D
I just looked out to the point

          Bm
Where the words, they are hitting me

     F#m
In a full-on assault

    D            Bm        C#m
Oh, can't you see when the ballad comes for you

Bm            E
It comes like mе?

      A              D
Well, I know I can't change the timеs

  Bm                               F#m
I know I'm already breaking when I look into your eyes

    D            Bm        C#m
Oh, can't you see when the ballad comes for you

Bm E
It comes like me?
[Chorus]
G        F#m
Up close

       C
I fell in love with you

C
(I met you at an early show)

G       F#m C
You fall,   I'll fall along with you

C
(We travelled 'round the world together)
