[A] What was that face?
That's like, it could be the red [D#m] king.
That was a pain in the face.
Takes me about 40 minutes to figure out the key. _
_ If [F#] I had a pen_
Let me [F#] tell you a story [N] about this song.
_ I feel like I can tell you stories,
because I can't usually talk this much.
_ _ I wrote this song about_
So I had_
[Bm] Most of my songs before [D#] this new record were about_
They were like letters to people.
And I didn't want them to be [A#] misinterpreted,
so I worked really hard at making them
as mean as they could possibly be. _ _ _
_ [G#] So I wrote this [G#m] song,
this song, [A#] Beneath These Fireworks,
_ [D] which is a record I made in 2003.
And most of that record [G#] is about
[Gm] one person, _ in particular.
Mean songs.
And the nice songs are about [G#] somebody else.
_ _ So, long story short, [B] I was rekindling
my relationship [F#] with this person in New York City
after the record had [C] come out.
I [G#] hadn't seen them in a while.
So we're sitting in a diner.
I'm sitting across from her, and I said,
[G] Have you heard the record?
And she's like, Yeah, it's really good.
And I was like, [A#] Awesome. _ _
_ [G#] _ Do you know that song, Bent?
_ [D#m] _
She's like, Yeah, yeah, that's a good one.
[G#] _
That's about you.
_ _ [G#] _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ [G#] End of rekindle. _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ If I bent
_ _ _ [B] like you said was [F#] best
_ would that change
_ a thing
if I spent
_ _ _ _ [B] myself till _ _ nothing's [F#] left _ _
_ would [C#] you still
[C#] leave me [D#m] here
you're so sorry
[B] about it all
now [F#] that it's _
over _ should I
thank you for that
[D#m] dear you're so
sorry [Bm] about it all
_ _ and [F#] I hope you'll _ always be
