Cm                   A#
Take a picture to remember this by
G#maj7
You'll never hold all the details in your mind
Cm                      A#
Fillin' your head with superfluous facts
G#maj7
Pushin' out what you're never gettin' back

And all that's left is a version of the truth
A recollection that is often misconstrued
Sgt. Pepper with the faces of friends
But the names all elude you in the end

Chorus:
D#                 A#       Cm7 G#
Kiss me just this one last time
D#               A#        Cm7 G#
Tell me that you once were mine

Take a picture to remember me by
To show everybody who you left behind
The near-miss that almost shot you out the blue
I was a city you were only passin' through

And all that's left is a version of events
Favorably framed for the sake of self-defense
We barely notice as the pages disappear
Floating off into another year

Chorus:
D#                 A#       Cm7 G#
Kiss me just this one last time
D#               A#        Cm7 D#
Tell me that you once were mine
G#                A#       Cm7 Gm7
Kiss me just this one last time
G#                 A#
Show me that your love was mine - x2
