Intro :
Am G F C
Am G
saturday sunset, we're lying on my bed
F C
with five hours to go
Am G
fingers entwined and so were our minds crying
F C
i don't want you to go
Am G
you wiped away tears but not fears
F C
under the still and clear indigo
Am G
you said baby don't cry, we'll be fine
F C
you're the one thing i swear i can't outgrow
Am
my mother said the younger me
G
was a pretending' prodigy
F C
well nothing then, much has changed
Am
cause while you're wolfing down liquor
G
my soul it gets sicker
F
but i'm stickin' to the screenplay,
gotta say i'm okay, but answer this babe
Am
how is it now
G
that somehow you're a stranger
F C
you were mine just yesterday
Am
i pray the block in my airway
G F
dissipates and instead deters
C
your airplane's way
D F
but heaven denied destiny decried
D F
something beautiful died too soon
Reff :
C
but i'm letting go
Am
i'm giving up the ghost
F
but don't get me wrong
i'll always love you, that's why
G
i wrote you this very last song
C Am
i guess this is where we say goodbye
F
i know i'll be alright
G
someday i'll be fine
(Am)
but just not tonight
Int. Am G F
(uuu uuh )
Am G
plunging into all kinds of diversions
F C
like blush wine and sonorous soirées
Am G
but even with gin and surgin' adrenaline
F C
i see you're all that can intoxicate
Am G
oceans and engines, you're skilled
F C
at infringing on great love affairs
Am G
cause now my heart's home, all i've known
F C
is long gone and ten thousand miles away
D F
and i'm not okay
Reff :
-G C
but i'm letting go
Am
i'm giving up the ghost
F
but don't get me wrong
i'll always love you, that's why
G
i wrote you this very last song
C Am
i guess this is where we say goodbye
F G
i know i'll be alright but just not-
Am
tonight was the first time
G
i stared into seas of beguiling sepia
F C
two years ago
Am
and the first time i learned real world
G
superpowers lived in three words
F C
they revitalized my fraying bones, oh
Am
now what do you do when your pillar
crumbled down, you've lost
G
all solid ground, both dreams
and demons drowned, and this void's
F
all you've found and doubts
C
light it aglow?
Am
i have so many questions
G
but i'm pouring them into the ocean
F
and i'm starting up my engine
Reff :
C
and i'm letting go
Am
i'm giving up your ghost
F
it's come to a close
i marked the end
G
with this last song i wrote
C
i'm letting go
Am
this is the last falsetto
F Fm
i'll ever sing to you my great
C
lost love
