Verse 1
[G]She's thinking about [C]the prince and [G]Cinderella
And the outlaws, and the hustlers, and the [C]heroes
That never seem to [G]fall
It[G] doesn't matter, it doesn't [C]matter what
The outcome of the [G]story is
[G]Because in real life I try to [C]tell her
It's not like that at [D]all

When your [C]world is sinking like a [G]sunset

[G]Tales of Don Juan, [C]they're very [G]poetic, babe
But out on the streets out there[C]
The true verse of life is [G]written
[G]You know it's really a shame
When you've [C]got to let go of all the [G]things you love
[G]Like a fighter he really bleeds
When he [C]must hang up his [D]gloves

But for a [Em]moment, I'd like to [D]forget
That my [C]heart is sinking like a [G]sunset

You can [G]walk too far out on that [C]ledge
And you might [G]lose your mind
