Chords

An older song from Adam Schlesinger & Chris Collingwood, The Pinwheel Sessions from the lates 80s or early 90s [Intro] A E A B C#m A B A E A B C#m [Verse 1]
E       A           B      C#m
She had stars taped to her ceiling

     A          B            A    E
They glowed for half an hour

E       A      B         C#m
I would try to save the feeling

                G#m
Of that plastic moonlight power
[Chorus]
      A         B          G#m C#m
And I dreamed a world that she created

  D                    A
A love unlocked from a secret past

      E         A     B          C#m
And I thought I saw a good thing coming

    A        B           A    E
But now it's fading fast
[Interlude] A E A B C#m A B A E A B C#m [Verse 2]
E       A      B        C#m
She was always starting something

   A       B     E      A
To keep me on my guard

      E        A        B
I was thinking next to nothing

    C#m            G#m     E
For once it didn't seem so hard
[Chorus]
  A        B     G#m     C#m
A low-down dirty kind of feeling

  D                A
A love that wasn't supposed to last

      E         A     B          C#m
And I thought I saw a good thing coming

    A        B           A    E
But now it's fading fast
[Interlude] A E A B C#m A B A E A B C#m [Bridge]
A                  G#m
Don't tell me I've been a fool

      A      Am            E
There are no rules to this game

                  G#m
Don't tell me I'm not alone

   A             D     A  B
It fades away to nothing
[solo] E A B C#m A B E A E A B C#m G#m [Chorus]
      A         B          G#m C#m
And I dreamed a world that she created

  D                    A
A love unlocked from a secret past

      E         A     B          C#m
And I thought I saw a good thing coming

    A        B           A    E
But now it's fading fast
[Outro]
      E         A     B          C#m
And I thought I saw a good thing coming

    A        B           A    E
But now it's fading fast
