[Fm]
[Eb]
[Bbm] [Fm]
[Eb]
On [Bbm] my [Fm] way up [Eb] north, up on the [Bbm] Ventura
I [Fm] pulled [Eb] back the hood and I was talking to [Bbm] you
And I [Fm] knew then it [Eb] would be a lifelong thing
But [Bbm] I didn't [Db] know that [Eb] we, we could break [Cm] a silver [Eb]
lining
And [Fm] I'm [Db] so
[Fm] sad, like a [Eb] good bird, I can't [Fm] put this [Db] deep [Fm] in
I [Eb] sold a fairy tale [Fm] with you
[Db] I sold a fairy tale [Fm] [Eb]
[Fm] with you
[Db] And
[Ab] [Eb] you [Bb] said [Fm] that [Eb] day, on the 101, [Bbm] the [Fm] girl come [Eb] undone
I tried to downplay [Bbm] it with a [Fm] bet, oh [Eb] but I said you'd take [Bbm] it as [Fm] long as [Eb] I could
I could not erase it
And [Fm] I'm so [Db]
sad, [Fm] like a [Eb] good bird, I can't put [Fm] this [Db] deep [Fm] in
I [Eb] sold a fairy tale [Fm] with you
[Db]
[Fm] [Eb]
[Ab] [Db]
[Ab] [Bb] And [Eb]
[Fm] I ride [Db] alongside, [Fm] and I rode [Eb] alongside with him
[Fm] And I rode [Db] alongside, till [Fm] you lost me [Eb] there in the open road
[Fm] But I rode [Db] alongside, and [Ab] led to the honey's [Eb] parade
It's so soothing [Bbm] for me to break your bread
[Db] For me to take your [Eb] word, [Fm] I have to [Db] steal it
[Ab] [Eb]
And [Fm] I'm so [Db]
sad, [Fm] like a [Eb] good bird, I can't put [Fm] this [Db] deep in
[Fm] I [Eb] sold a fairy tale with you
[Db]
I [Fm] think you'd back [Eb] up whenever I [Fm] fear
[Db]
[Ab] [Eb]
[Fm] [Db] Down in Mexico [F] way, something [Bbm] about [Fm] the open road
I [Db] knew that he was [Eb] looking [C] for some new [Fm] blood
And find a little in you, [F] find a little in me, we may be [Fm] on this [Db] road
[Eb] But we're just [Bb]
impostors [Fm] in this country
[Db]
[Ab] So we go [Eb] along and we said we'd fake [Fm] it
Feel [Db] better with all of us down, [Eb] till I almost [Bbm] smack them, see right back [Fm] at em
I [Db] don't know what they [Eb] told, how they're in the [Bbm] desert [Fm] cold
These [Db] guys think they [Eb] must, try and [Bbm] just get over on [Fm] us
[Db]
[Ab] [Eb] And
[Fm] I'm so [Db]
[Fm] sad, like a [Eb] good bird, I can't put [Fm] this [Db] deep in
[Fm] I [Eb] sold a fairy tale with [Fm] you
[Db]
[Fm] I [Eb] sold a fairy tale with [Fm] you
[Db]
[Ab] I [Eb]
[Fm] was [Db] riding back, [Ab] [Eb] riding out loud
[Fm] I was riding [Db]
back, [Ab] riding out loud
Till [Eb] you lost me and I [Fm] was [Db] riding back
[Ab] [Eb] Riding [Eb] out loud till [Fm] you lost [Db] me
Till [Fm] you [Eb] lost me
[Bbm] And I waited for you
[Fm] And you [Eb] lost [Fm] me
[Db]
[Bb] [Eb]
[Cm] [Fm] Way up [Ab] north I took my day
[Eb] All in all [Bbm] was a pretty nice [Fm] day
Up with the [Db] hood, right back where
[Eb] You could [Bbm] taste heaven [Fm] perfectly
Feel [Db] out the summer [Eb] breeze
Didn't [Bbm] know when we'd be back [Fm] in
I [Db] don't, didn't think [F] we'd end up [Bbm] like Lying there
