F
C/G (same pattern as with F)

C/GWhatever happened to the fall of Rome?
What a Fstrange thing to ask when I was taking you home
as we wC/Galked alone in the parking lot
I said I Fdon’t have much, you said I like what you’ve got
And I’d bGe lying if I said I didn’t picture you then in yFour weddC/Ging dress
And the Gdays I hoped we’d someday spend in ourF SundayC/G best
We were Flight as a C/Gflame, both Fbatshit iC/Gnsane
We were lAmost but we were Gjust the C/Gsame
C/GWhatever happened to the fall of Rome?
You were a Fmystery to me but the place felt like home
There arC/Ge no rules when you're fallin in love
You just tFake what you get and you hope it’s enough
And I’d beG lying if I said I didn’t picture you then in yFour weddC/Ging dress
And the Gdays I hoped we’d someday spend in ouFr SundaC/Gy best
We were Fwrong from the sC/Gtart, with our Fbroken hC/Gearts
You played your Amrole and I Gplayed myF part C/G
Repeat intro once
And the road was Fso lC/Gong
I was never Fas sC/Gtrong
As the Amlove that you Ggave to Fme C/G
And it all turned Fas tC/Gold(?), you becFome C/Gso cold
That you foAmrget what you were Gborn to C/Gbe
C/G
C/GWhatever happened to the fall of Rome?
F (a little bit of strumming)
Those people all turned to ashes and stone
It’s C/Ga trick of the mind, when you think it won’t end
It’s F contest with time and time always wins
G (little bit of strumming) F C/G
I saw a picture of you the other day in your wedding dress
And I Gwondered why I walked away like I Fhad with the C/Grest
You were the Fonly C/Gthing that was wForth sC/Gaving
And I Amswear that I Gdid my C/Gbest
build on C/G
And Gsometimes at night I dream of you now in your wFedding dC/Gress
And I Ghope it doesn’t seem somehow like FI gave yoC/Gu less
I have Fnothing to C/Gshow from these yFears on the rC/Goad
But these Amsongs that I wGrote for C/Gyou
