G#m
Just as fast as you came, just as fast the sun set

    F#
You pushed me away, you pushed me down

                                 G#m
Down, down, down, where my dreams lay

And just as quick you left

                                     F#
Just as quick as you left my heart undressed

And I fell down, down, down, down

                             G#m
You took my wish back to the well

    E          D#m                 B
And I remember all the words that you said

     E              D#m                        B
That love is just a spark that starts in your heart

            D#
And ends in your head

        G#m         D#m
Darling calm down, calm down

       E                    D#
You'll lose yourself in the clouds

G#m         D#m
Slow down, slow down

     E                D#
Your world's spinning around

           G#m    F#
May your untamed heart stay

E                D#
Restless running wild

             C#m           E       F#       G#m
Cause you're only, just a lonely, lonely, child

G#m
Just as dark as the night

Just as dark as the night when

  F#
I lost my mind, I lost control

                                             G#m
Down, down, down you let me sell my love for my soul

    E          D#m                 B
And I remember all the words that you wrote

     E              D#m                       B
That love is just a sound that plays in your heart

                   D# 
And gets caught in your throat

        G#m         D#m
Darling calm down, calm down

       E                    D# 
You'll lose yourself in the clouds

G#m         D#m
Slow down, slow down

     E                D# 
Your world's spinning around

           G#m    F#
May your untamed heart stay

E                D# 
Restless running wild

             C#m           E       F#       G#m
Cause you're only, just a lonely, lonely, child

E B F# G#m E B F# G#m

    E                            B
And I remember all the words that you said

     E                                       B

Yes you're only just a lonely, lonely, child
