C
Whatever happened to the fall of Rome?
F
What a strange thing to ask when I was taking you home
C
As we walked alone through the parking lot
F
I said I don’t have much you said I like what you got
G F C
And I’d be lying if I said I didn’t picture you then in your wedding dress
G F C
And the days I’d hope we’d some day spend in our Sunday best
F C
We were light as a flame
F C
Both bat-sh*t insane
F G C
We were lost but we were just the same
C
Whatever happened to the fall of Rome?
F
You were a mystery to me but the place felt like home
C
And there are no rules when you’re falling in love
F
You just take what you get and you hope it’s enough
G F C
And I’d be lying if I said I didn’t picture you then in your wedding dress
G F C
And the day’s I’d hope we’d some day spend in our Sunday best
F C
We were wrong from the start
F C
With our broken arms
F G C
You played your role and I played my part
(C from the intro)
F C
And the road was so long
F C
I was never as strong
F G C
As the love that you gave to me
F C
And it uttered its toll
F C
You become so cold
F G C
You forget what you were born to be
C
Whatever happened to the fall of Rome?
F
Those people all turned to ashes and stone
C
It’s a trick of the mind when you think it wont end
F
It’s a contest with time that time always wins
G F C
I saw a picture of you the other day in your wedding dress
G F C
And I wondered why I walked away like I had with the rest
F C
You were the only thing
F C
That was worth saving
F G C
And I swear I did my best
G F C
And sometimes at night I dream of you now in your wedding dress
G F C
And I hope it doesn’t seem somehow like I gave you less
F C
I have nothing to show
F C
From these years on the road
F G C
But these songs that I wrote for you
