Verse:
C#       A#          C#     A#
You were right I was up all night
         G#?   G#7    G#?   G#7
Thinking about you
C#        A#             C#     A#
Dreamed I choked on your kaleidoscope
                   G#? G#7  G#? G#7
Now you still look deadly

         C#   A#        C#         A#
My fatal flower how the tigers all laughed
     G#?       G#7                G#?   G#7
As I ran along the well worn paths

Chorus:
C#       A#        C#         A#
Sapphire eye looks down on my lilacs
G#?        G#7     G#?        G#7
Down on my lilacs, down on my lilacs
        C#  A#         C#  A#         G#?  G#7
Down on me,    down on me,    down on

Insincere as we rolled for years

In turning barrels

I washed my hands in the lake

As you blew it all away with roman candles

So take your fever let me wallow alone

The callus on your eyes have grown

Sapphire eye looks down on my lilacs

Down on my lilacs, down on my lilacs

Down on me, down on me, down on

C# A# G#2
           And your faults have me stoned
C# A# G#
           Paying rent to your ghost
C# A# G#2               C#           A#
           Torn up by a frightened little girl
               G#
I thought that you were right

So I was up all night thinking about you
               G#2
I thought that you were right, you were right

You were right, you were

You were right and I was up all night thinking about you

And I couldn’t speak, covered with bees you flew above me

Figured it all out, I think you’ve had enough time

I’ve had long enough to change my mind

Sapphire eye looks down on my lilacs

Down on my lilacs, down on my lilacs

Down on me, down on me, down on
