[Intro 1]
[Am][C][F][C]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Saturday sunset [C]we’re lying
on my bed with [F]five hours [C]to go
[Am]Fingers entwined and [C]so were our minds
cryin [F]I don’t want you t[C]o go
You [Am]wiped away tears [C]but not fears
under the still and [F]clear indigo
[C]You said bab[Am]y don’t cry
[C]we’[G]ll be fine
[C]You’re the one thing
[F]I swear I can’t out[C]grow
My [Am]mother said the younger me was
[C]a Pretending p[G]rodigy[C]
[G]Well not[F]hing then much has[C] changed
Coz while [Am]you’re wolfing down
liquor [C]my soul it gets sicker
But [F]I’m stickin' to the screenplay
gotta say I’m okay

[Verse 2]
But answer this babe
[Am]How is it now that someh[C]ow you’re a
stranger you were [F]mine just yesterday
[C]I pra[Am]yed the block in my air
[C]way dissipates
And instead de[F]ters your
[C]airplane’s way

[Verse 3]
But heaven [D]denied
Destiny [F]decried
Something beautiful [D]died
Too [F]soon

[Verse 4]
But I’m letting [C]go
[Am]I’m givin’ up the ghost
But don’t get me [F]wrong
I’ll always love you that’s why
I wrote you this [G]very last song

[Verse 5]
I guess this is [C]where we
say [Am]goodbye
I know I’ll be al[F]right
Someday [G]I’ll be fine
But just not tonight
[Am]Uh[C]
[F]

[Verse 6]
[Am]Plunging into all kinds [C]of diversions like
blush [F]wine and sonor[C]ous soirées
[Am]But even with gin [G]and [C]surgin’ adrenaline
I [F]see you’re all that can intoxicate
[C]Oce[Am]ans and engines you[G]’re skilled at[C]
infringin' on [F]great love af[C]fairs
Cause [Am]now my heart’s home all
I’ve[C]known is long gone
And [F]10 thousand miles [C]away

[Verse 7]
And I’m not [D]okay[F]
[G]But I’m letting [C]go
[Am]I’m givin’ up the ghost
But don’t get [F]me wrong
I’ll always love you and that’s why
I wrote you this [G]very last song

[Verse 8]
I guess this is [C]where we say [Am]goodbye
I know I’ll be [F]al right
[G]But just not

[Verse 9]
To[Am]night was the first time I stared into [C]seas
of beguiling sepia two [F]years [C]ago
And the first time I [Am]learned real
world superpowers
Lived in [C]three words and could revitalize
my [F]fraying bones [C]oh
What do you do when your [Am]pillar
crumbled down
You’ve lost all solid ground
[G]Both dreams and [C]demons drowned
And this void’s all you’ve found
[F]an d doubts light it aglow

[Verse 10]
[C]I have so many quest[Am]ions
But [C]I’m pouring them into the ocean
and [F]I’m starting up my engine

[Verse 11]
And I’m letting [C]go
[Am]I’m givin’ up your ghost
It’s come too [F]close
I marked the end with this last
[G]song [C]I wro[G]te
I’m letting [C]go
This is the [Am]last falsetto
I’ll ever sing to [F]you my [Fm]great lost love
