F/C G/B Em
Bring down the veil
F/C G C
For all to see
F/C G/B Em
Shake off the rain
F/C G C
And return to me
Edim F/A
If ours was a dream
Edim F/A
The phantom a sacred scheme
G/C G/B C F
Then how did it end so quick
Gsus4 G C Em C Em
My darling arithmetic
F/C G/B Em
Boxed up your clothes
F/C G C
Cleaned out your room
F/C G/B Em
Lay in your bed
F/C G C
Flew to the moon
Edim F/A
Are you hiding up here?
Edim F/A
Did they force you to disappear?
G/C G/B C F
Is it all just a dirty trick?
Gsus4 G C Em C Em
My darling arithmetic
F
And the merchants say
Em
What they always said
F
And the lenders say
Em
What they always said
F
But they only serve a soft reminder
Em
That you are dead
G C
My darling
