Red

[First Part]

                   C             
Lovin' him is like, drivin' a new 
    Em
Maserati
                D
Down a dead end street
C                           Em
Faster than the wind, passionate as 
sin
         D
Ended so suddenly
                    C
Loving him is like, tryin' to change
 your mind
            Em                     
Once you're already flying through 
    D
the free fall
         C                  Em
Like the colours in autumn so bright
                 D
Just before they lose it all

[Chorus]

               C                   
Losing him was blue, like I'd never
 G
 known
                D
Missing him was dark grey, all alone
                   C             
Forgetting him was like trying to 
          Em
know somebody
          D
You never met
                   C
But loving him was red
          Em        D
Re ee ed, re ee ed, re ee ed
               C
Lovin' him was red
          Em        D
Re ee ed, re ee ed, re ee ed

[Second Part]

C
 When the morning came
  G                              
We were cleaning incense off your 
Em
vinyl shelf
               D
'Cause we lost track of time again
C                      G
 Laughing with my feet in your lap
     Em          D
Like you were my closest friend
C                     G
"How'd we end up on the floor, 
anyway?"

         Em                        
You say, "Your roommate's cheap-ass
            D
 screw top Rosé, that's how"
C          G         D
 I see you every day now

[Chorus]

     C      G
And I chose you
    Em        D
The one I was dancing with
       C        G
In New York, no shoes
       Em        D
Looked up at the sky, and it was
    C
The burgundy on my T-shirt
         G
When you splashed your wine into me
            Em
And how the blood rushed into my 
cheeks
   D
So scarlet, it was
    C
The mark they saw on my collarbonе
    G
The rust that grew between 
tеlephones
    Em
The lips I used to call "home"
         D                C  G  
So scarlet, it was maroon
Em  D


[Bridge]

 C                         G
And I wake with your memory over me
         Em                 D
That's a real fucking legacy, legacy
 C                         G
And I wake with your memory over me
         Em                 D
That's a real fucking legacy to 
leave

[Third Part]

   C
The burgundy on my T-shirt
         G
When you splashed your wine into me
            Em
And how the blood rushed into my 
cheeks
   D
So scarlet, it was maroon
    C
The mark they saw on my collarbonе
    G
The rust that grew between 
tеlephones
    Em
The lips I used to call "home"
        D                 C  G  
So scarlet, it was maroon
Em  D



Remembering him comes in flashbacks 
and echoes
                    Em             
Tell myself it's time now, gotta let
D
 go
     G              C
But moving on from him is impossible
     G                         D
When I still see it all in my, head
            C  Em  D
In burning red
      C      Em  D
Burning reeeeed

[Chorus]

                  C             
Oh losing him was blue, like I'd 
          G
never known
                D
Missing him was dark grey, all alone
                   C             
Forgetting him was like tryin' to 
          Em
know somebody
          D
You never met
                     C
Cause loving him was red
Em          D
Yeah, yeah, red
           C   Em  D
Oh Burning reeeeeeeed

[Outro]

           C                  Em  
And that's Why he's spinnin' 
            D
'round in my head
                              C
Comes back to me, burnin' red
  Em      D
Yeah, yeah

His love was like, drivin' a new 
Maserati
               D
Down a dead end street
