[Bass solo & Intro]
[Ab]
[CHORUS]
[Db]Poor boy, I could never live [Cm7]up to your imagination
[Db]Poor boy, I was a [Cm7]crush that killed
[Db]Poor boy, I could never live [Cm7]up to your hallucination
[Db]Poor boy, I was a [Cm7]crush that killed
[VERSE 1]
[Fm7]I had a [Cm]dream
That trouble always starts in someone's [Fm7]head
And dreams are [Cm]real
When you're asleep you may as well be [Fm7]dead
I predi[Cm]cate
The last 10 years on figuring with [Fm7]me
After the [Cm]war
In some strange city on a strangers
[PRE-CHORUS 1]
[E]So you think I'd [Ebm]waste my life on [Db]this
To be your comfort when you needed me
[E]Lay the ever[Ebm]lasting friendship [Db]
[CHORUS]
Poor boy, I could never live [Cm7]up to your imagination
[Db]Poor boy, I was a [Cm7]crush that killed
[Db]Poor boy, I could never live [Cm7]up to your hallucination
[Db]Poor boy, I was a [Cm7]crush that killed
[INTERLUDE]
[Ab] [Cm]
[VERSE 2]
[Fm7]We had a [Cm]time
If we could have it back over a[Fm7]gain
I'd be a [Cm]force
Not so polite and not so deli[Fm7]cate
I'd trot a[Cm]round
On velvet socks so I could not be [Fm7]felt
I was your [Cm]fan
Waiting for the day when this God will start to
[PRE-CHORUS 2]
[E]Talk to me, don't [Ebm]venerate me [Db]now
I'm not a golden calf to be adored
[E]See my heartbeat, [Ebm]smell my sweet skin [Db]
[CHORUS]
Poor boy, I could never live [Cm7]up to your imagination
[Db]Poor boy, I was a [Cm7]crush that killed
[Db]Poor boy, I could never live [Cm7]up to your hallucination
[Db]Poor boy, I was a [Cm7]crush that killed
[INTERLUDE]
(Ab Cm) x4
[BRIDGE]
If I [Db]carry you in my [Eb]heart
Will you [Db]ease the pain or make it [Eb]harder
I know you [Db]like to let me know you're [Cm7]there
If the [Db]black clouds come, will you disap[Cm7]pear
Is there [Ab]space in my life for [Eb]you?
Will I [Dbm]see you [Ab]tomorrow?
Or will I [Eb]ride on?
[CHORUS]
[Db]Poor boy, I could never live [Cm7]up to your imagination
[Db]Poor boy, I was a [Cm7]crush that killed
[Db]Poor boy, I could never live [Cm7]up to your hallucination
[Db]Poor boy, I was a [Cm7]crush that killed
