A
I always feel blue
                                   D
And you're like a wave of Beatles songs
and yesterdays
                    E
Or Central Park on Saturdays,
my happy place (ha-ha-ha-ha)
A
I turned out the lights
                            D
I listened to you breathin' on me low and sweet
                      E
It's the only place I wanna be,
and it's scarin' me (ha-ha-ha-ha)

A
I, I tried
                D
I didn't wanna fall like this
                    E
You made me risk it all like this
        A
'Cause you, yeah, you knew
                        D
You knew that I would break easily
                     E
So you could take a piece of me

Chorus:
          A
You make high, you make me cry
           D
Keepin' me up all night, in the fire
               E
Don't think my arms could hold any tighter
             A
You make me sick, what do I do with this?
 D
Lovin' you is the best and the worst
  E                              A
Why does somethin' so beautiful hurt?

My head's in a fog
And you're rollin' in, smellin' like a memory
Of some place that
I've never been and you're sinkin' in
(Ha-ha-ha-ha)

I, I lied
When I said I wouldn't fall like this
Love shouldn't be at all like this
Why do I
Let you take me all the way?
You kill me with the love we make

Chorus:
You make me high
You make me cry
Keepin' me up all night in the fire
Don't think my arms could hold any tighter
You make me sink
What do I do with this?
Loving you is the best and the worst
Why does somethin' so beautiful hurt?

A                                     D
Why does love and pain feel like the same
                E
When I'm with you?

Chorus:
You make me high
You make me cry
Keepin' me up all night in the fire
Don't think my arms could hold any tighter
You make me sink
What do I do with this?
Loving you is the best and the worst
Why does somethin' so beautiful hurt?
