I just can't take the stage and say these parts
C2 F#/D B/G Em D
While we dance through all these issues in the dark
C2 F#/D B/G C2 F#/D B/G
Feigning madness from the start
C2 F#/D B/G Em D
We dance through all these issues in the dark
C2 D
Because Kings will kill Kings
G D
And marry their Queens
G F#/D Em
But love always seems
C2 D G
to be lost on me.
G F#/D Em D
And so to my Ophelia,
Em F#/D G
"Adieu, love, adieu."
G F#/D Em D
It echoes through my heart and lungs
Em F#/D G
"Adieu, love adieu"
C2 F#/D B/G
Adieu, love, adieu, love love love love love...
C2 F#/D B/G C2 F#/D B/G
So Ophelia stepped out into the Great Divide
C2 F#/D B/G Em D
And decided she'd try to walk on water
C2 D
Because Kings will kill Kings
G D
And marry their Queens
G F#/D Em
But love always seems
C2 D G
To be lost on me
C2 D G
Oh, you're lost on me.
