Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Can[G] yo[C]u still remember[G]
how [Cm]it a[C]ll began?
With clipper ships an[G]d pink
electric [Cm]trees[C][Cm]
[Eb]Dawn light on a skyl[G]ine brid[C]ges' span
[Eb]Street light on a roof[G]top
[C]memory[Cm]
Then it was me and spring [Eb]came
[G]Playing a son[Cm]g of spring rain
A melody in [Fm]your [Ab]name[Cm][C]
Night now [G]comes much bluer
[Cm]than it used [C]to be
The pink [G]nun sings

[Verse 2]
much sadder
[C]than be[Cm]fore
[Eb]She sings that sometimes thing[G]
s aren't what they
[C]Seem to [G]be, [C]lik[Cm]e moo[Eb]ns
reflected [G]on the six[C]teenth [Cm]floor

[Verse 3]
Love is no [Cm]more, [G]it's ended
Paper and pins [Cm]won't mend it
Even the moon preten[Ab]ded
[C]There must be [G]a reason, oh,
[C]there must be [Cm]one[C]
Keep your an[G]swers,
let me [C]find [Cm]my o[C]wn[Cm]
[Eb]Where do pretty stories[G]
get their [C]endings [Cm]from
[Eb]If loving always l[G]eaves you all al[C]one?
[Cm]Kisses have shown me sorro[C]w[G]

[Verse 4]
Love is a throne to [Cm]borrow
Pay for the loan [C]tomorrow

[Outro 1]
[G][Cm][C][G][Cm][C][G]
[Cm][Eb][D][G][C][Eb][G][C][Cm][C][G][Eb][Cm]
[C]
