[DWOHT Verse 1]
Bm
   I, I loved you in secret

D
   First sight, yeah, we love without reason

Gmaj7
  Oh, twenty-five years old

Gmaj7
  Oh, how were you to know?

Bm
   And my, my love had been frozen

D
   Deep blue, but you painted me golden

Gmaj7
  Oh, and you held me close

Gmaj7
  Oh, how was I to know?
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
I could've spent forever with your hands in my pockets

D
Picture of your face in an invisible locket

Gmaj7
You said there was nothing in the world that could stop it

      A
I had a bad feeling

             Bm
And darling, you had turned my bed into a sacred oasis

D
People started talking, putting us through our paces

Gmaj7
I knew there was no one in the world who could take it

      A
I had a bad feeling
[Chorus]
                   Bm D
But we were dancing

                 Gmaj7       A
Dancing with our hands tied, hands tied

                     Bm D
Yeah, we were dancing

                Gmaj7       A
Like it was the first time, first time

                   Bm D
But we were dancing

                 Gmaj7       A
Dancing with our hands tied, hands tied

                     Bm D
Yeah, we were dancing

            Gmaj7       A
And I had a bad feeling
But we were dancing [Bridge]
Gmaj7                                Bm
  I'd kiss you as the lights went out

D                                Gmaj7
  Swaying as the room burned down

Gmaj7                                Bm
  I'd hold you as the water rushes in

D                                Gmaj7
  If I could dance with you again

Gmaj7                                 Bm
  I'd kiss you as the lights went out

D                                Gmaj7
  Swaying as the room burned down

Gmaj7                                Bm
  I'd hold you as the water rushes in...
[The Albatross Bridge]
Em Gmaj7           D         A     Em
     And when that sky rains fire on you

Gmaj7          D        A
 And you're persona non grata

Em Gmaj7           D        A          Em
     I'll tell you how I've been there too

Gmaj7     D          A
 And that none of it matters
[Chorus]
 Bm       D         Gmaj7
 Wise men once read fake news

 A
 And they believed it

 Bm      D            Gmaj7
 Jackals raised their hackles

     A
 You couldn't conceive it

 Bm       D        Gmaj7             A                     Bm
 You were sleeping soundly when they dragged you from your bed

                D           Gmaj7 A
 And I tried to warn you about them
[Chorus]
D     A
 So I crossed my thoughtless heart

Bm         Gmaj7
 Spread my wings like a parachute

D        A
 I'm the albatross

Bm       Gmaj7
 I swept in at the rescue

D          A
 The devil that you know

Bm         Gmaj7
 Looks now more like an angel

D        A
 I'm the life you chose

Bm            Gmaj7        D   A
 And all this terrible danger

Bm    Gmaj7        D   A
 This terrible danger

D              A             Bm   G
 So cross your thoughtless heart

D          A
 She's the albatross

Bm      Gmaj7
 She is here to destroy you
