Hi! Hope this helps you guys! I’ll indicate lower in the tab where this applies but there are occasional ’sus4’ chords in this song but it’s kind of hard to point out exactly where they are in the lines. I’ll mark where that happens so you can listen to the song and figure out where you want to play them. Thanks!!! Capo 2 Intro- You were married in the mirrored hall when I was 16 You spoke the words "I love girls in white leather jackets" That was good enough for love it was good enough for me    (Listen for correct timing of when to play these three chords) I listened in when you thought you were lost        Caught in those fangs on a tornado sprawl           Who knows what you know                                                E                  Esus4 E I only heard what I wanted You said I was your blue blue baby And you were right         You said I was your blue blue baby And you were right Instrumental- Same chords and timings as first verse up until "That was good second verse.                                                      Wondered the halls of the nighttime My body burned my legs ached But you never came to bed You just left me there awake You kept me wanting wanting wanting Like the wanting in the movies and the hymns I want the pharaohs but there’s only men I want the pharaohs but there’s only men You said I was your new blue baby And you were right You said I was your new blue baby And you were right This is pretty accurate you just have to listen to the song for certain timings since it’s difficult to write it out. Hope this helps you out!!!

La chanson évoque des souvenirs d'amour et de désir à travers le prisme de la jeunesse et des aspirations. Elle parle d'un moment marquant, avec des promesses d'affection et des rêves inaccessibles. L'interlocuteur se rappelle d'une connexion passionnée, mais aussi de la douleur de l'attente et du besoin, symbolisée par le désir d'atteindre quelque chose de plus grand, représenté par les pharaons, tout en se sentant coincé dans une réalité limitée. Le contexte semble être celui d'un amour perdu ou insatisfait, où la nostalgie et l'envie s'entremêlent. Les références à des images de films et d'hymnes soulignent une quête romantique, mais aussi une certaine mélancolie face à l'absence et à l'illusion d'une vie plus fascinante.
