Intro: E B E B
verse 1
E
Here, we’re just stuck in the spotlight,
B
We should make like shadows and disappear.
C#m A
Silhouettes in the sunset, our final curtain call is drawing near.
E
If parting is such sweet sorrow,
B
To hell with waiting for tomorrow.
C#m
Hand in hand like we planned,
A
As the night takes us away.
Pre-Chorus
E
And I hope when they find me and you
B
In this tomb built for two,
C#m
They get the glory for the end of our story,
A
And take their fucking bows.
E B
So remember us, the soon dearly departed,
C#m
And how the war our fathers started,
A
Sealed the fate of star-crossed enemies.
E B
You and I both know that death won’t matter,
C#m G#m A
Bring on the poison and the dagger,
Am
They set the stage for tragedy.
verse 2
E
Don’t scream, ‘cause the show must go on,
B C#m
Though our fairytale is ripping at the seams.
A E
But love doesn’t have to be something that we hide behind the scenes.
B
If parting is such sweet sorrow,
C#m
To hell with waiting for tomorrow.
Side by side when we die,
A
As the night takes us away.
Pre-Chorus
E
And I hope when they find me and you
B
In this tomb built for two,
C#m
They get the glory for the end of our story,
A
And take their fucking bows.

Sealed the fate of star-crossed enemies.

Bring on the poison and the dagger,
