The Idea of You

E9  E  G#m7  Gm7  F#m7  A
        E  G#m7  Gm7  F#m7  A  Am

E           G#m7
I built you in my mind, piece by
F#m7
Piece
                   A
A perfect picture of who I thought you'd be
E             G#m7
Every glance, every touch
          F#m7
Feels so real
                   A
So real, just like a fever dream

              E
And it feels like if I get any
G#m7
Closer
       F#m7             A
Then I might stay here forever
       E         G#m7
But I try not to forget
              F#m7   Am
That it's all in my head

E
It's the story I imagine
     G#m7
The part you play
  F#m7
A wall of clouds, where you
A
Stand so tall
E
But you're not real, you're
G#m7
Not there at all
    F#m7
I'm chasing a shadow, a dream I drew
A
Falling in love with the idea of
E            G#m7     F#m7
You, of you, of you, of you
A
Falling in love with the idea of
E            G#m7    F#m7
You, of you, of you, of you
A
Falling in love with the idea of you

E                 G#m7
It's bittersweet, this world
     F#m7
I’ve made
             A
A beautiful lie where I feel safe
E           G#m7
But someday I'll wake and
      F#m7
Leave it
                 A
I’ll stop loving a love I'll never know

              E
And it feels like if I get any
G#m7
Closer
       F#m7             A
Then I might stay here forever
       E         G#m7
But I try not to forget
              F#m7   Am
That it's all in my head

E
It's the story I imagine
     G#m7
The part you play
  F#m7
A wall of clouds, where you
A
Stand so tall
E
But you're not real, you're
G#m7
Not there at all
    F#m7
I'm chasing a shadow, a dream I drew
A
Falling in love with the idea of
E            G#m7     F#m7
You, of you, of you, of you
A
Falling in love with the idea of
E            G#m7    F#m7
You, of you, of you, of you
A                         Am
Falling in love with the idea of
E
You
