Madeline Chords & Lyrics by Tickle Me Pink
Madeline
guitar chords lyrics
I know I'm missing two chords in the bridge section, but this is a much more
accurate representation than any version I've seen on here.
Verse 1
E
There's a girl back I used to know,
B
who cried herself to sleep every night.
we all knew.
we all knew.
E
The only girl who would ever compromise,
B
strike a deal with the devil to save a night.
we all knew.
we all knew.
E
She tried to call me a month ago,
B
to sing me a song that she just wrote.
but I wasn't home,
G#m
I should've known that time had taken it's toll.
she had no place to go,
Eb
they found her body,
resting by the river.
Chorus:
G#m E
Oh
B
I never said goodbye.
Eb G#m
I wish I would have tried.
E B
I couldn't hear her cries, as she filled her veins with lies,
Eb E
until she saw the light.
Verse 2:
E
I remember we would hide behind the trees,
B
smoking cigarettes until our throats would bleed.
Those were the days.
Those were the days.
E
Never scared, never worried that the summer would end.
Invincible to every short bend.
B
We drove so fast,
thought it would last.
G#m
but time had taken had taken it's toll,
E
she had no place to go.
Eb
They found her body resting by the river.
Repeat Chorus:
Bridge:
G#m
Madeline.
Madeline.
B
You will be remembered.
G#m
Madeline.
Madeline.
B
We still have September.
G#m
Madeline.
Madeline.
B C#m Eb
We'll see you on the other side.
G#m
If I could turn back time,
E B
I'd find a way to remind you
Eb G#m
that somehow you could try to give in and fight the good fight
E B
oh you didn't have to die,
Eb
you filled your veins with lies,
My Precious Madeline
E , B
