Fmaj7              F                         C
Rainclouds parting raked up the heaps of stars
C
In a summer fading quickly
F                                      C
Burning ozone lingered like heavy fog
       C
And we stumbled down the sidewalk
F                                        C
Buzzing neon the dangling pocket watch
        C
I was ripped from an amnesia
F                                     C
Doe eyed. Dreamstate. Phantasmagoria
            C
Swaying slow and cinematic
                   F
And we were young, fast friends and faster lovers
C           G            Am          F
To know the night was to live in it forever

F                                       C
Sequined stardust sultry in retrospect
C
With a thin, tawdry nostalgia
F                                     C
Careless. Clumsy. Mishandled momentum
C
In a box of tacky keepsakes
F
But I was young and flippant with a goodbye
C            G                Am              F
So quick to shrug off there won’t always be a next time
C
I don’t really want to talk now, baby
G
I don’t want to think about it anymore
Am
Sooner or later this will all start fading
F
We’ll have all the time we need to mourn
C
If I could ever turn the clock back, maybe
G
I could make it like we never met at all
Am
And I could get around the slow decaying
F
Of knowing everything’s my fault
C F C F
Am               G                       F                        C
All regrets and unresolved suspense meet the same sad ends in time
Am                        G                   F                       C
So I’ll wait here till the coast is clear and you’re miles out of sight
C
I don’t really want to talk now, baby
G
I don’t want to think about it anymore
Am
Sooner or later this will all start fading
F
We’ll have all the time we need to mourn

If I could ever turn the clock back, maybe
G
I could make it like we never met at all

And I could get around the slow decaying
