Verse 1
[C] [Am] [G]
Who's gonna stop us from waltzing back into rekindled flames
If we know the steps anyway?
[C] [Am] [G]
We embroided the memories of the time I was away
Stitching "we were just kids, babe"
[F] [Am] [G]
I said "I don't mind. It takes time."
I thought I was better safe than starry-eyed
[F] [Am] [G]
I felt a glow like this, never before, and never since
Chorus
[C] [Am]
If you know it in one glimpse, it's legendary
[G]
You and I go from one kiss to getting married
[C] [Am]
Still alive, killing time at the cemetery
[G]
Never quite buried
[F] [Am]
In your suit and tie, in the nick of time
[G]
You lowdown boy, you stand up guy
[F]
You holy ghost
[Am] [G]
You told me I'm the love of your life
[C] [Am]
Said I'm the love of your life
[G]
About a million times
Verse 2
[C] [Am] [G]
Who's gonna tell me the truth when you blew in with the winds of fate
And told me I reformed you?
[C] [Am] [G]
When your impressionist paintings of heaven turned out to be fakes
Well, you took me to hell too
[F] [Am]
And all at once, the ink bleeds
[G]
A conman sells a fool a get love quick scheme
[F] [Am] [G]
But I felt a hole like this, never before, and ever since
Chorus
[C] [Am]
If you know it in one glimpse, it's legendary
[G]
What we thought was for all time was momentary
[C] [Am]
Still alive, killing time at the cemetery
[G]
Never quite buried
[F] [Am]
You cinephile in black and white
[G]
All those plot twists and dynamite
[F] [Am]
Mr. Steal Your Girl then make her cry
[G]
Said I'm the love of your life
Bridge
[Dm] [C/E]
You shit talked me under the table
[F]
Talking rings and talking cradles
I wish I could unrecall
[Dm]
How we almost had it all
[C/E]
Dancing phantoms on the terrace
[F]
Are they secondhand embarrassed
[G]
That I can't get out of bed
[C]
'Cause something counterfeit's dead?
Outro
[Am] [G]
It was legendary
[C]
It was momentary
[Am]
It was unnecessary
[G]
Should've let it stay buried
[F]
Oh, what a valiant roar
[Am]
What a bland goodbye
[G]
The coward claimed he was a lion
[F] [Am]
I'm combing through the braids of lies
[G]
I'll never leave, never mind
[F] [Am]
Our field of dreams engulfed in fire
[G]
Your arson's match, your somber eyes
[F] [Am]
And I'll still see it until I die
[G]
You're the loss of my life
