Perfect Sonnet

C
Lately I've been wishing I had one 
desire,
Em
Something that would make me never 
want another,
Am
Something that would make it so that
 nothing matters,
E7/D
All would be clear then,
      C
but I guess I'll have to settle for 
a few brief moments,
    Em
and watch it all dissolve into a 
single second,
    Am
and try to write it down into a 
perfect sonnet,
    E7/D
or one foolish line
              F               G
'Cause that's all that you'll get,
           Am       E7/D
So you'll have to accept,
    F
You are here,
             G
Then you're gone
  C
I believe that lovers should be tied
 together,
Em
Thrown into the ocean in the worst 
of weather,
Am
Left there to drown, Left there to 
drown
             E7/D
in their innocence

    C
But as for me I'm coming to the 
final chapter,
Em
I've read all of the pages and 
there's still no answer,
Am
The only words before I know will 
soon come after,
             E7/D
It’s the only way it can be.
     F             G
So I stand in the sun,
     Am                 E7/D
And I breathe with my lungs,
          F            G          
Trying to spare me the weight of 
       Am
the truth,
         C
Seeing everything you've ever seen 
was just a mirror,
  Em
Spend your whole life sweating in an
 endless fever,
Am                                
Laying in a bathtub full of 
    E7/D
freezing water, wishing you were a 
ghost
     C
But once you knew a girl and you 
named her Lover,
     Em
And danced with her in kitchens 
through the greenest summers
      Am
But autumn came, she disappeared,
                     E7/D
You can't remember where she said 
she was going to
         F
But you know that she's gone,
              Am        E7/D
Because she left you a song,
          F            G
That you don't wanna sing
          C
Singing: I believe that lovers 
should be chained together,
Em
Thrown into a fire with their songs 
and letters,
Am                                
And left there to burn, left there
                     E7/D
 to burn in their arrogance
    C
But as for me I'm coming to my final
 failure,
      Em
I've killed myself with changes 
trying to make things better,
           Am
But still ended up becoming 
something other,
      E7/D
Than what I had planned to be

All right!

C Em Am E7/D

    C
Now I believe that lovers should be 
draped in flowers,
     Em
And laid entwined together on a bed 
of clovers,
     Am
And left there to sleep,
Left there to dream of their 
  E7/D    E7/D
happiness.
