INTRO:

Bm A E F#m (x4) G
VERSE 1: (strum each chord once lightly)
--------
D A
Lilacs blossom just as sweet
D A
Now my heart is shattered
F#m G
If I bowled it down the street
D A
Who's to say it mattered?
D A
If there's one that rode away
D A
What would I be missing?
F#m G
Lips that taste of tears, they say
D A
Are the best for kissing
CHORUS:
-------
Bm A E F#m
Oh-aie aie-ohh
Bm A E F#m
Oh-aie aie-ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
VERSE 2: (arpeggiate)
--------
Eyes that watch the morning star
Seem a little brighter
Arms held out to darkness are
Usually whiter
Shall I bar the strolling guest
Bind my brow with willow
When they say the empty breast
Is the softer pillow?
CHORUS 2:
---------
Oh-aie aie-ohh
Oh-aie aie-ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-aie aie-ohh
Oh-aie aie-ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
VERSE 3: (arpeggiate)
--------
That a heart falls tinkling down
Never think it ceases
Every likely lad in town
Gathers up the pieces
If there's one gone whistling by
Would I let it grieve me?
Let him wonder if I lied
Let him half believe me
CHORUS 3:
---------
(softly)
Oh-aie aie-ohh
Oh-aie aie-ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-aie aie-ohh
Oh-aie aie-ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-aie aie-ohh
Oh-aie aie-ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
[REPEAT CHORUS 3]
[REPEAT TO FADE]
