verse 1 
              C                    F                         G 
I once saw a sunset so vivid and warm that I swore it was perfect 
              C                              F                             G 
I once had a lover, I'm not sure if I'll recover, but I know it was worth it 
                         C                                         F 
Then, last night in the car, the falling raindrops looked like stars of some  
             G 
incalculable speed 
                F                                Fm                       C 
Then later, my friends said "Good to see you again, this is a home to me" 

              F                                      C 
So I wrote a song and I called it "The Love of my Life" 
                F                                            G 
Said "don't be gone long", it now sings me to sleep every night 


verse 2 
                        C                         F                               G 
And I never learned a lesson looking at my own reflection, but sometimes it seems useful 
                    C                            F                           G 
So I loosen my heart strings in high hopes of starting to find something truthful 

                   F                                               C                                
Cynicism isn't wisdom, it's a lazy way to say that you've been burned 
              F                                            Fm                            
It seems, if anything, you'd be less certain after everything you ever learned
