INTRO:

===

VERSE ONE:

Who's the boy you like the most?

Is he teasing you with underage?

Could he be waving from a tropical sunset?

Static silhouette somehow

Single in this bed someday

===

CHORUS:

Quiet till it falls, falls, falls; Rome, Rome, Rome, Rome

Focus looking forward, the Colosseum

Oh no, what did I say? What can I say?

Rome, Rome, many tears are falling here

I'll be driving; you'll look the other way

===

VERSE TWO:

That ain't easy to ignore

With your shutters open all the way

When it's candlelight I see I go insane

Distant silhouette somehow

We shared a cigarette somewhere

===

CHORUS TWO:

Addict till it falls, falls, falls; Rome, Rome, Rome, Rome

Focus looking forward, the Colosseum

Oh no, what did I say? What can I say?

Rome, Rome, many tears are falling here

I'll be driving; you'll look the other way

===

BREAK:

| D | (x4)

===

VERSE THREE: (no bass)

Always and forevermore

I call to say I'm on the way

Two thousand years remain in a trash can

Let burn the cigarette somewhere

Ashes till it fall, fall, falls

===

BREAK TWO:

--- NOTE ---

At this point in the song, the keyboard plays the chords, and the guitar just holds a D

note until the outro. The keyboard could be replaced by another guitar playing the

following chords:

All together, these are the chords created:

BRIDGE:

I stand outside under broken leaves

I know I can't do without; the future's trying to wait

I never loved you; and if I loved you

I wouldn't say I'm sorry, oh no

I stand outside under broken leaves

===

VERSE FOUR:

Always and forever more; We're together dead and lonely

I thought I couldn't do this without you

Single in this bed somewhere

Ashes till it fall, fall, falls

===

OUTRO:

End on D.
