Perfect Sonnet  Bright Eyes



[C]Lately I've been wishing I had one desire,
[Em]Something that would make me never want another,
[Am]Something that would make it so that nothing matters,
[D]All would be clear then  But I
[C]guess I'll have to settle for a few brief moments, And
[Em]watch it all dissolve into a single second,
And [Am]try to write it down into a perfect sonnet,
Or o[D]ne foolish line
'Cause that's [F]all that you'll [G]get,
So you'll h[Am]ave to ac[D]cept,
You [F]are here ,
Then you're g[G]one
I [C]believe that lovers should be tied together,
[Em]Thrown into the ocean in the worst of weather,
[Am]Left there to drown, Left there to drown
in their inno[D]cence But
[C]as for me I'm coming to the final chapter,
[Em]I've read all of the pages and there's still no answer,
[Am]The only words before I know will soon come after,
It’s the only[D] way it can be.
So I [F]stand in the s[G]un,
And I[Am] breathe with my lu[D]ngs,
Trying to [F]spare me the [G]weight of the tru[Am]th,
Seeing ev[C]erything you've ever seen was just a mirror,
Sp[Em]end your whole life sweating in an endless fever,
[Am]Laying in a bathtub full of freezing w[D]ater,
Wishing you were a ghost
But o[C]nce you knew a girl and you named her Lover,
And d[Em]anced with her in kitchens through the greenest summers
But au[Am]tumn came,
She disappeared,

You can't remember wh[D]ere she said she was going to
But you k[F]now that she's gone,
Because she le[Am]ft you a s[D]ong,
That you d[F]on't wanna si[G]ng
Singing: I[C] believe that lovers should be chained together,
[Em]Thrown into a fire with their songs and letters,
[Am]And left there to burn, left there to burn in their arr[D]ogance
But [C]as for me I'm coming to my final failure,
I've k[Em]illed myself with changes trying to make things better,
But still e[Am]nded up becoming something other,
Than w[D]hat I had planned to be

All right! ( C Em Am D )
Now [C]I believe that lovers should be draped in flowers,
And l[Em]aid entwined together on a bed of clovers,
And l[Am]eft there to sleep,
Left there to dream of their ha[D]ppiness.  [D]

Then end on :
