--------------------...........

*from 'Parallel Lines' (1979)*


Intro:

E

Verse 1:

E                               C#7
 Once I had a love and it was a gas,
C#m7                               E
 Soon turned out; I had a heart of glass.
                                    C#7
Seemed like the real thing, only to find;
C#m7                           E
 Much mistrust; love's gone be-hind.

Verse 2:

E                                C#7
 Once I had a love and it was di-vine,
C#m7                             E
 Soon found out; I was losing my mind.
                                        C#7
Seemed like the real thing but I was so blind,
C#m7                           E
 Much mistrust; love's gone be-hind.

Chorus 1:

A                                             E
 In between, what I find is pleasing, and I'm feeling fine.
                                 A
Love is so confusing; there's no peace of mind.
If I fear I'm losing you;
     F#7               B7
It's just no good: you teasing like you do.

Interlude:

E

Verse 3:

E                               C#7
 Once I had a love and it was a gas,
C#m7                               E
 Soon turned out; I had a heart of glass.
                                    C#7
Seemed like the real thing, only to find;
C#m7                           E
 Much mistrust; love's gone be-hind.

Chorus 2:

A                                      E
 Lost inside, adorable illusion, and I cannot hide.
                                        A
I'm them one you're using; please don't push me aside,

We coulda made it cruising, yeah.

 Soon turned out to be a pain in the ass.
                                    C#7
Seemed like the real thing, only to find;
C#m7                           E
 Much mistrust; love's gone be-hind.
