Intro: G

Verse:
G                                                      C
Richard Wagner's letters to his lover Mathilde were a mess
                                                  Em
He should have quit before he had written the address
                      Dsus4  D       (Dsus2   D)      G
They made love on the mezzanine her husband was his friend
                                       C
Vienna in a fugue-state working on a thing
                                                    Em
That when he finished it took almost seven hours to sing
                       Dsus4     D      (Dsus2   D)      G
He still found time to write to her his heart-exploding words

Chorus:
 G             Em               D
Our love surpassed our love so fast
                 C                  D       G
Our love's all wrong our love goes on and on
             Em                D                              C
Our love became our love by name when I wrote it to you in a song
              D       G
Our love goes on and on
 G    C   D    G            C D
Our love our love

Verse:
Kafka in his letters to his lover Milena was alive
But he was waiting for a love that never would arrive
Their rendezvous was singular her husband was his friend
She is a living fire she is a reason to live
She is killing me burning only for him
I'll spend my whole life loving her my heart exploding words

Chorus:
 G             Em               D
Our love surpassed our love so fast
                 C                  D       G
Our love's all wrong our love goes on and on
             Em                D                              C
Our love became our love by name when I wrote it to you in a song
              D       G
Our love goes on and on
 G    C   D    G            C D
Our love our love
