MI LA
She was married to somebody else
I was lonely and lived by myself
MI SIm FA#m FA#m7
Baby, that's a battle you can't win
MI LA
So we met and we started the clock
Did that help -- no it did not
MI SIm FA#m FA#m7
But I guess I knew that going in
REsus2 LA/DO# MI/SI LA/DO#
REsus2 LA/DO# MI/SI LA/DO#
And watched the sweeping second hand
REsus2 RE REsus2 RE REmaj7
But at least I was calm
A E Bm6 D(1stx Dsus2 D Dmaj7)
On the road to the big observatory where the planets were hung
And the stars swung around the second story and we stumbled upon
LA FA#m
A room where a luminous moon was waning
REsus2 RE REmaj7 REsus2 LA/DO# MI/SI LA/DO#
And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond
REsus2 RE RE LA/DO# SIm
But at least I was calm
MI LA
Fun is fun, but when push comes to shove
When it's done, we deny it was love
MI SIm FA#m FA#m7
She'll say Jim -- I think it's a mistake
MI LA
And the room where we looked at the sky
Will be there with its telescope eye
MI SIm FA#m FA#m7
Just another sentry kept awake
REsus2 LA/DO# MI/SI LA/DO#
REsus2 LA/DO# MI/SI LA/DO#
Watching over silverlake
REsus2 RE REsus2 RE REmaj7
But at least I was calm
A E Bm6 D(1stx Dsus2 D Dmaj7)
On the road to the big observatory where the planets were hung
And the stars swung around the second story and we stumbled upon
LA FA#m
A room where a luminous moon was waning
REsus2 RE REmaj7 REsus2 LA/DO# MI/SI LA/DO#
And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond
REsus2 RE RE LA/DO# SIm
But at least I was calm
FA#m SIm MI MIsus4 MI MIsus4
And you'll be glad to leave with dignity intact
She won't be sad so much as matter-of-fact
SIm FA#m RE RE LA/DO# SIm FA#
And it was doomed and hopeless as a suicide pact
[solo] Bm D A E 2x

But at least I was calm

On the road to the big observatory where the planets were hung

At least I managed to stay calm
