Verse 1
[A] [C#m] [B]
Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street
[A]
Faster than the wind
[C#m] [B]
Passionate as sin, ended so suddenly
[A]
Loving him is like trying to change your mind
[C#m] [B]
Once you’re already flying through the free fall
[A]
Like the colors in autumn
[C#m] [B] (Pause)
So bright just before they lose it all
Chorus
[A] [E]
Losing him was blue like I’d never known
[B]
Missing him was dark grey all alone
[A] [C#m] [B]
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you've never met
[A] [C#m] [B]
But loving him was red
[A] [C#m] [B] (Pause)
Loving him was red
Verse 2
[A] [C#m] [B]
Touching him is like realizing all you ever wanted was right there in front of you
[A] [C#m] [B]
Memorizing him was as easy as knowing all the words to your old favorite song
[A] [C#m] [B]
Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and realizing there’s no right answer
[A] [C#m] [B]
Regretting him was like wishing you never found out love could be that strong
Chorus
[A] [E]
Losing him was blue like I’d never known
[B]
Missing him was dark grey all alone
[A] [C#m] [B]
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you've never met
[A] [C#m]
But loving him was red
[B] [A] [C#m] [B]
Oh red burning red
Bridge
[A] [B]
Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes
[C#m] [B] (or [E]/Eb) [E]
Tell myself it’s time now, gotta let go
[A] [G#m]
But moving on from him is impossible
[B]
When I still see it all in my head

Burning red!
[A] [C#m] [B]
Burning it was red!
Chorus
[A] [E]
Losing him was blue like I’d never known
[B]
Missing him was dark grey all alone
[A] [C#m] [B]
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you've never met
[A] [C#m] [B]
Cause loving him was red yeah yeah red
[A] [C#m] [B]
We're burning red
[A] [C#m]
And that's why he's spinning round in my head
[B]
Comes back to me burning red
[A] [C#m] [B]
Yeah yeah
