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

So I was up all night thinking about you

You were right, you were
