Verso 1:

(abafando) F#5             F#5/C#  
C#4/D
            She lives in a fairy  
tale
A9
Somewhere too far for us to find
F#5            F#5/C#      C#4/D
 Forgotten the taste and smell
A9
Of a world that she's left behind

It's all about    the    exposure 
the lens I told her

 The angles were all wrong now
      A9
She's ripping wings off of 
butterflies
