[Intro] A F#m7 B7 E7 A E7 A E7 [Verse 1]
A                       A7
When the moon is rising and the night is still

D                             Dm
Some of my delusions have the power to kill

A                        F#7
Scared I'll get what I deserve

B7       E7             A E7 A E7
Or maybe scared I won't
[Verse 2]
A                                A7
I'm sitting in my garage staring at my motorcycle

D                            Dm
My heart is so heavy, like a stack of Bibles

A                    F#7
Swear I need you too much

B7      E7           A E7 A A7
Baby, I swear I don't
[Bridge 1]
D
'Cause sometimes love can be so wrong

Dm
Like a fat man in a thong

A        Amaj7         A   A7
It walks shamelessly away

D
I hold a seashell to my ear

Dm
And winds of echoed dreams I hear

B7                      E7  E7#5
Reverberations of yesterday
[Verse 3]
A                A7
I can be rough - Sometimes I can be tender

D                         Dm
But I can't negotiate the terms of my surrender

A              F#7
I love you too much, babe

B7              E7           A  E7 A E7
Go on and have your way with me
[Interlude] A A7 D Dm A F#7 B7 E7 A E7 A A7 [Bridge 2]
D
Well, emperors and reigning kings

Dm
Have showered you with golden rings

A                   Amaj7     A    A7
Now I stand with my hat in my hand

D
I know that I can't compete

Dm
With ruthless men and satin sheets

B7                           E7    E7#5
But I'm ready to meet your demands
[Verse 4]
A                    A7
Words of glory, and ashes and dust

D                        Dm
At the end of the story there's just us

A              F#7
I love you too much, baby

B7       E7         A E7 A Amaj7
To ever say goodbye
