Track Info

[Verse]

A D I just looked into my life Bm And all I saw was that
F#m
you're not coming back
D Bm Oh, can't you see when
C#m
the ballad comes for you
Bm E It comes like me? A D But I won't be afraid Bm I can't seem to find you
F#m
in this midnight parade
D Bm I know it's all true C#m When the ballad comes for me,
Bm E
it comes like you
[Chorus]
Gmaj7 F#m Up close C I fell in love with you C (I met you at an early show) Gmaj7 F#m C You fall,

I'll fall along with you
C (We travelled
Gmaj7
'round the world together)

[Verse]

A I just looked
D
out to the point
Bm Where the words,

they are hitting me
F#m In a full-on assault D Bm Oh, can't you see when
C#m
the ballad comes for you
Bm E It comes like mе? A Well, I know I can't
D
change the timеs
Bm I know I'm already

breaking when
F#m
I look into your eyes
D Bm Oh, can't you see when
C#m
the ballad comes for you
Bm E It comes like me? [Chorus]

G F#m Up close C I fell in

love with you
C (I met you at

an early show)

I'll fall along with you
C (We travelled

'round the world together)
