Verse 1:
Dm         F          Bb
Not whole, not wholly separate, but syncopated
C                         Dm
Single in our nature, and because of the times
      F
Not a word was said when the lights came on
      Bb                        C
Or a glance given pause at the cost of our desired wrongs
     Dm                              F
It's second nature to love you, it's first to die
            Bb                    C                        Dm
And we were killed upon waking, killed upon waking to the life
                                F
We weren't prepared to live but rebelled to realize
         Bb                        C
We were killed upon the pavement, Bonnie we're immortalized in

Chorus:
Dm                      F
Blood, cold, cold love, we were still young
         Bb                 C
When the radio lights came on
                Dm                    F
Elton's on the air, no fair dear that we were still here
       Bb                       C
In the absence of everything, abstain from fear
         Dm
And if I cry in your arms
F                               Bb
Just some other xxxx, just some other xxxx
                C
Just some other things that I've been dealing with
    Dm                F
I'd die in your arms, bury me while playing this
Bb                        C
Bury me saying "You were all I ever needed"
    Dm                                F
And hold me like we're dying from the liquor that we drank
        Bb               C
Down in hotel rooms, to feel warm in cold love

Verse 2:
Dm             F
What's harder, harder to say?
         Bb
That you want me to stay
         C               Dm
That you want me to stay unchanged for you?
F                            Bb                         C
Chained to a lie, we're the same, you and I, we're the same
         Dm                       F                      Bb
Not the same, we hurt differently, but consistent in our pain
          C                         Dm
Equal and equidistant in the way we laugh
                F
To lay bare the weight of our cold love affair
Bb                           C
Recalling the days where we were, we weren't, we were
Dm                    F
Wrong for the papers, wrong for the dinner tables
Bb                         C
Of the inner rings of the rich and famous anythings
     Dm                  F                  Bb
It's gone, not bad, just gone, my bad, just wrong, we had
       C
And we had, and we were then in

Chorus:
Dm                      F
Blood, cold, cold love, we were still young
         Bb                 C
When the radio lights came on
                Dm                    F
Elton's on the air, no fair dear that we were still here
       Bb                       C
In the absence of everything, abstain from fear
         Dm
And if I cry in your arms
F                               Bb
Just some other xxxx, just some other xxxx
                C
Just some other things that I've been dealing with
    Dm                F
I'd die in your arms, bury me while playing this
Bb                        C
Bury me saying "You were all I ever needed"
    Dm                                 F
And hold me like we're dying from the liquor that we drank
        Bb               C
Cown in hotel rooms, to feel warm in cold love

Outro:
Dm             F
What's harder, harder to say?
         Bb
That you want me to stay
         C               Dm
That you want me to stay unchanged for you?
F                            Bb                         C
Chained to a lie, we're the same, you and I, we're the same
Dm             F
What's harder, harder to fake?
         Bb
That you want me to stay
         C                   Dm
That you want me to stay the same for you?
F                           Bb                           C
Chained to a lie, who's to blame? Let it die, we're the same
Dm                         F
In blood, cold, cold love, we were still young
         Bb                 C
When the radio lights came on
                Dm  Bb  F
Elton's on the air
