[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][F]
[C][F][C][F][C]
[G][Am][G][Am]
[F][C][F]
She fell [C]to the mattress

[Verse 1]
[G]With the grace of an actress
Fall[Am]ing like a thief from [G]a roof.
[Am]She's asking for p[F]roofâ??â??Are you
[C]staying?â??
[F]Outside you [C]hear mission bells.
[F]

[Verse 2]
Welcome [C]to [G]Maria's beautiful [Am]mess,
[G]In a cluttered [Am]apartment on the West [F]Side.
She pulls the [C]blinds while,
You watch how her dress falls [F]round her.
And [C]the world

[Verse 3]
[Am]slows, a clo[C]ck shows
A [G]wrinkle in the flow of [D]time
[C]And [Am]she steps close,
[C]her eyes [Csus4]glow,
[C]Lips pop [G]open like a bottle of [D]wine
[C]And she'll love

[Verse 4]
[Am]like it's thirst
Like she's [C]never been hurt,
She's [G]dancing just like
nobody's [D]watching.
Is this [Am]love? Is this cursed?
[C]It feels like the first time fall[G]ing
Nobody's [D]watching,
Nobody's [Am]watching,[C]
Nobody's [G]watch[C]ing,
[D]wat[Am]ching[C][G]

[Interlude 1]

[F][C]

[Verse 5]
She puts on some [C]music,
She [G]asks you to choose it
[Am]You sang her back [G]a G[Am]ershwin line.
Now Ella is [F]singing holy, soul[C]fully,
Bringing up better times
[F]

[Verse 6]
And beneath the [C]tunes,[Csus4]
[C]She's [G]smiling on an [Am]unmade bed
[G]She saysâ??â??What's in
the middle [Am]that [F]scares you?

[Verse 7]
Does it dare [C]you
To take a [Dm]moment [C]and just slow
[F]down?â??

[Verse 8]
[Am]And the world slows, [C]a clock shows
A [G]wrinkle in the flow of [D]time
[C]And [Am]she steps close,
[C]her eyes glow,
[Csus4]Lips pop [C]open like[G]
a bottle of [D]wine

[Verse 9]
And she'll [Am]love like it's thirst
Like she's [C]never been hurt,
She's [G]dancing just like
nobody's watch[D]ing.
Is this [Am]love? Is this cursed?
[C]It feels like the first time fall[G]ing
Nobody's [D]watching.
Pull [C]the cur

[Verse 10]
[Am]tains all down
Let [C]the stars fall around you,
She's smil[G]ing like the Mona [D]Lisa.
You [C]could con[Am]quer this town.
If [C]your feet touched the ground,
But you're fall[G]ing boy
I know, [D]I s[Am]ee you
I [C]see you, I [G]see, I see,
I [D]see you
