intro: A G F#m G x4
D A Bm [ G Bm A ] x2 D
Started out like in the movies,
Bm G [ A ]
But it ended like a bad dream.
D
Curtain opened, heard the crowd roar,
Bm G [ A ]
This one's a repeat, seen it before.
[Pre-Chorus]
D A Bm
Rewind to the start before it all went wrong,
G
What's going on?
D Bm G
Fast forward to the end, after everyone's gone home,
A
And they've forgotten it all.
[Chorus]
D [ F#m ] G
This ain't a movie that I wanna see,
G [ A ] Bm
A tragic story, starring you and me,
Bm A G
Yell "cut!", we're stuck inside this scene,
G [ A ] D
This is heartache on the big screen.
D [ F#m ] G
The clock is ticking, and I'm out of time.
G [ A ] Bm
The camera's rolling, and I forgot my lines
Bm A G
My script is ripped and now I see
G
This is heartache on the big screen
D A Bm
G
This is heartache on the big screen
[Verse 2]
D
Curtain closes on this cliché,
Bm G [ A ]
A good story of a bad day.
D
Back to square one where I started,
Bm G [ A ]
As I stand here brokenhearted.
[Pre-Chorus]
D A Bm
Fast forward to the end, after everyone's gone home,
G
And they've forgotten it all.
[Chorus]
D [ F#m ] G
This ain't a movie that I wanna see,
G [ A ] Bm
A tragic story, starring you and me,
Bm A G
Yell "cut!", we're stuck inside this scene,
G [ A ] D
This is heartache on the big screen.
D [ F#m ] G
The clock is ticking, and I'm out of time.
G [ A ] Bm
The camera's rolling, and I forgot my lines,
Bm A G
My script is ripped and now I see,
G
This is heartache on the big screen.
[Bridge]
D G
If Hollywood could see me now,
Bm G
I've got the starring roll,
Bm A D
But they won't so I'll just keep on acting a fool.
[Chorus]
D * A *
This ain't a movie that I wanna see,
Bm * G *
A tragic story, starring you and me,
Bm A G
Yell "cut", we're stuck inside this scene.
G [ G ] D
Yeah!
D [ F#m ] G
The clock is ticking, and I'm out of time.
G [ A ] Bm
The camera's rolling, and I forgot my lines,
Bm A G
My script is ripped and now I see,
G
This is heartache on the big screen.
[Outro]

This is heartache on the big screen.
