------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ELABORATE LIVES - Heather Headley ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Justin Miller Email: [email protected] This is from the Tony award-winning Broadway musical AIDA. Intro: F F F Gsus G
       F                   F
We all lead such elaborate lives

       G              F
Wild ambitions in our sights

       F     F#m              Am   
How an affair of the heart survives

      F                G
Days apart and hurried nights

                F#m
Seems quite unbelievable to me

                Am
I don't want to live like that

                F#m
Seems quite unbelievable to me

                F
I don't want to love like that

G                       D             F        G      F
I just want our time to be slower and gentler, wiser, free

       F                   F
We all live in extravagant times

        G                  F
Playing games we can't all win

    F     F#m        Am
Unintended emotional crimes

          F                G
Take some out, take others in

                F#m
I'm so tired of all we're going through

                Am
I don't want to live like that

                F#m
I'm so tired of all we're going through

                F
I don't want to love like that

G                      D              F     G         F     F 
I just want to be with you now and forever, peaceful, true

                    F
This may not be the moment

            F
To tell you face to face

                    D
But I could wait forever

                         G
For the perfect time and place

F      F                   F
We all live such elaborate lives

         G                    F
We don't know whose words are true

           F      F#m        Am
Strangers, lovers, husbands, wives

        F                 G
Hard to know who's loving who

                 F#m
Too many choices tear us apart

                Am
I don't want to live like that

                 F#m
Too many choices tear us apart

                F
I don't want to love like that

G                         D                  F       G      F      Gsus...G...F
I just want to touch your heart, may this confession be the start
