[Verse 1]

A
You clean the bathroom
          E
On your hands and on your knees
F#m
Wearing latex gloves
          D
That you borrow from her
A                                  
I don’t know what you think you’re 
E
doing
                         F#m
But you’re doing it for free
                               D
Do you know even what you’re doing 
anymore?
A                   E
I know it’s not my business
                       F#m
And I know it’s not my right
                            D
But the expression on your face
                         A
Looks so awkward and contrived
                         E
But I know it’s not my business
                         F#m
And I know it’s not my right
                          D
And I don’t know what to call it

But I wouldn’t call it

[Chorus 1]

 A                 E              
Oh, I’m a rising star, I’m a 
     F#m
sinking ship
                  D
You’re a work of art, something 
delicate
A
You’re my mother’s son
E
You’re my favorite song
F#m                 D
I’m the things you hide

When you turn the lights back on
A                       E
I’m a one, or two, or three page 
explanation
          F#m
You’re a getaway vacation
Continúa después del anuncio
         D
That I hoped would bring salvation

It did not
A
And it’s killing me
     E
You were the only person
            F#m
Who could understand
                    D
The things I think inside my head
                    N.C.
And somehow you forgot

[Interlude]
A E F#m D

[Verse 2]
A
I dated Audrey Hepburns
 E
Just to be Paul Varjack
       F#m
And I picked up all the paychecks
      D
But I never called them back
A                  E
I guess I wasn’t fooling anybody
       F#m
But I never knew myself
           D
As well as I knew how to act
A                       E
And I know it’s not my business
                        F#m
And I know it’s not my right
                      D
But you crawl into my bed

In the middle of the night
A                      E
And you ask me not to leave you
                        F#m
But you don’t ask me to stay
                    D
And I never can say no
                           A
When you look at me like that

[Chorus 2]

             E                   
I’m a rising star, I’m a sinking 
F#m
ship
                  D
You’re a work of art, something 
delicate
A
You’re my mother’s son
E
No, you’re my favorite song
F#m                 D
I’m the things you hide

When you turn the lights back on
A                       E
I’m a one, or two, or three page 
explanation
          F#m
That you wouldn’t take the time
            D
To give to anyone at all
       A              E
I’m a one, or two or three page 
explanation
           F#m
That you wouldn’t take the time
            D
To give to anyone

Anyone at all

A E F#m D x2

[Bridge]
A            E
Are you overseas now?
           F#m
With the drugs
             D
And all the men
            A
Or are you dead
                   E
Or hiding in your loft
              F#m            D
Behind your papers and your pens
            A
Just how we met
              E                  F#m
I never did believe a word they said
             D
The bluest blues
             A
The reddest reds
              E                   
I never did believe a word they 
F#m
said
             D
They made it up
          A
Even the end
