Magazine Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]I was waiting for a mira[G]cle[F]
[G]Waiting high and [Am]low[C]
I was [Em]reaching for [F]illogical faith
[G]Reaching for an instant fix for [C]a p[Em]ain
I was praying for a mes[F]siah to [G]love
I was praying to the gods [C]above
As I [Em]wondered where the
real [Am]things [F]been
There you [G]are, your face
On the cov[Em]er of a [Am]magazine[G]

[Interlude 1]
[Am][F]
[Am][F][Em][C][Em][Am][F][G]
[Em]Who needs biblical in

[Verse 2]
[F]tegrity?
Now I have a vision
[G]Of who I would like to [C]be
[Em]Between your pages
[F]I think I love you, between [G]your lines
I really think I know [C]you [Em]too
I check my mirror, and [F]hate what I see
The [G]face the person,
looking back [C]at [G]me
[Em]Because it never[F] will be
[G]Your face, on [C]the cover of [G]a magazine[Am]
[F]

[Interlude 2]

[Am]

[Verse 3]
Do I [Em]want fame?
[Am]An instant fix for a pai[Em]n?[Am]
It's [F]warped [G]and utopian,
[Em]A make believe[Am] arcadia[F]n
[G]If [Em]its biblical in t[F]egrity
[G]Or celebrity [C]dependency
[Em]How could I not see what[F]
I was looking [G]for
Was inside of me [C]already[Em]
Before I look [F]for a messiah to love
I [G]need to start with [C]myself [Em]first
I [F]close your pages [G]now
On the shelf I lay you [C]back [Em]down
This is the [F]farewell scene whoever you [G]are,
goodbye,
Your face,
On the cov[C]er of [G]a magazine
