Am C/G Fmaj7 C

[Verse 1]
Am
Saturday sunset
      C/G                  Fmaj7           C
We're lying on my bed with five hours to go
Am                    C/G
Fingers entwined and so were our minds
         Fmaj7               C
Crying, "I don't want you to go"
    Am
You wiped away tears
        C/G                       Fmaj7       C
But not fears under the still and clear indigo
          Am                        C/G
You said "Baby, don't cry, we'll be fine
                       Fmaj7            C
You're the one thing I swear I can't outgrow"
   Am                             C/G
My mother said the younger me was a pretending prodigy
      Fmaj7                       C
Well, nothing then, much has changed
                    Am
'Cause while you're wolfing down liquor
   C/G
My soul, it gets sicker
        Fmaj7
But I'm sticking to the screenplay
              Fmaj7
Gotta say I'm okay But answer this, babe

[Pre-Chorus]
Am                       C/G
How is it now that, somehow, you're a strangеr?
        Fmaj7            C
You were mine just yеsterday
  Am                          C/G
I pray the block in my airway dissipates
            Fmaj7                  C
And instead deters your airplane's way
             D
But heaven denied
           F
Destiny decried
                    D
Something beautiful died
    F
Too soon

[Chorus]
                C
But I'm letting go
           Am
I'm giving up the ghost
                F
But don't get me wrong
                                                 G
I'll always love you That's why I wrote you this very last song
                C                Am
I guess this is where we say goodbye
                 F
I know I'll be alright
                 G
Someday, I'll be fine
                  Am   C/G    Fmaj7
But just not tonight (Ooh)

[Verse 2]
Am                       C/G
Plunging into all kinds of diversions
           Fmaj7                 C
Like blush wine and sonorous soirées
    Am                    C/G
But even with gin and surgin' adrenaline
       Fmaj7                    C
I see you're all that can intoxicate

[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Oceans and engines
         C/G                    Fmaj7         C
You're skilled at infringin' on great love affairs
      Am
Cause now my heart's home
          C/G                       F               C
All I've known is long gone and ten thousand miles away
             D   C*
And I'm not okay

[Chorus]
    G            C
But I'm letting go
           Am
I'm giving up the ghost
                  F
But don't get me wrong
                                                 G
I'll always love you That's why I wrote you this very last song
                C                Am
I guess this is where we say goodbye
               F
I know I'll be alright

But just not --

[Bridge]
    Am                                   C/G                         Fmaj7      C
Tonight was the first time I stared into seas of beguiling sepia two years ago
                     Am                                      C/G                             Fmaj7          C
And the first time I learned real world superpowers lived in three words, they revitalize my fraying bones
                             Am
Now what do you do when your pillar crumbled down You've lost all solid ground
      C/G
Both dreams and demons drowned And this void's all you've found
    Fmaj7              C
And doubts light it aglow
               Am7
I have so many questions
        C/G
But I'm pouring them into the ocean
        Fmaj7
And I'm starting up my engine

[Outro]
                C
But I'm letting go
           Am
I'm giving up your ghost
                F
It's come to a close
                                G
I marked the end with this last song I wrote
            C*
I'm letting go
             Am*                            F*
This is the last falsetto I'll ever sing to you
    Fm*        C*
My great lost love
