A Perfect Sonnet bright eyes
Lyrics and guitar chords
C
lately i've been wishing i had one desireEm
something that would make me never want anotherAm
something that would make it so that nothing mattersD
(A#m5
)sus2all would be clear then but i
C
guess i'll have to settle for a for a few briefmoments and
Em
watch all dissolve into a single secondand
Am
try to write it down into a perfect sonnetD
(A#m5
)sus2or one foolish line
cauz that's
F
all that you'll G
get so you'll Am
have toD
(A#m5
)sus2accept
you are
F
here and then you're G
gone*sing the chorus now*
but
C
i believe that lovers should be tied together andEm
thrown into the ocean in the worst of weather andAm
left there to drown, left there to drownD
(A#m5
)sus2in their innocence but
C
as for me i'm coming to the final chapteri
Em
read all of the pages and there is still no answerAm
only all that was before i know must soon come afterD
(A#m5
)sus2that is the only way it can be
so i
F
stand in the G
sunAm
D
(A#m5
)sus2and i breathe with my lungs
trying to
F
spare myself the G
weight of the trut(Am)
h saying
C
everything you have ever seen was just a mirrorand you've
Em
spent your whole life sweating in anendless fever
and now you are
Am
laying ina bathtum full of freezingD
(A#m5
)sus2water wishing you were a ghost
but
C
once you knew a girl and you named her loverand
Em
danced with her in kitchens through the greenestsummer but
Am
autumn came, she disappearedD
(A#m5
)sus2you don't remember where she said she was going to
but you
F
know that she is G
gone because she Am
left you Am
D
(A#m5
)sus2song
that you
F
don't want to G
singsinging
C
i believe that lovers should be chainedtogether
and
Em
thrown into a fire with their songs and lettersand
Am
left there to burn, left there to burn in theirD
(A#m5
)sus2arrogance
but
C
as for me i'm coming to my final failurei've
Em
killed myself with changes trying to make itbetter
but i still
Am
ended up becoming something other thanD
(A#m5
)sus2what i had planned to be...ALRIGHT!!! [C,Em,Am,
D
(A#m5
)]now
C
i believe that lovers should be draped in flowersand
Em
layed entwined together on a bed of cloverand
Am
left there to sleep, left there to dream of theirD
(A#m5
)sus2 D
(A#m5
)sus2happiness
