  A#m               F#
8 AM, we left your place
           C#                 G#
Bound for Paris on a runaway train
        A#m                F#
Walking down the Champs-Élysées
           C#                  G#
Pray this feeling never goes away

I remember thinking
A#m       F#
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
C#                 G#
It was a little too—
                        A#m F# C#
A little too good to be true
                       G#
It was too good to be true

Chorus:
    A#m                 F#
The city's never seen a love like ours
         C#                      G#
We were teenage dreams, we were movie stars
             A#m                           F#
And now it's pitch black, dark, and you're gone
          C#
Where did we go wrong?
                  G#
This was supposed to be a love song
A#m                  F#
Fallin' too hard, we burned too fast
            C#                     G#
Now there's no way out and there's no way back
             A#m                           F#
And now it's pitch black, dark, and you're gone
          C#
Where did we go wrong?
         G#
This was supposed to be a love song

The night we met, I still replay
Lost in Amsterdam, I saw your face
We were staying up and sleeping late
Two hopeless strangers in a love-drunk haze

And I remember thinking
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
It was a little too
A little too good to be true
It was too good to be true

Chorus

    F#
But that's okay
         A#m        G#
Too many love songs anyway
                   F#
And they all kinda sound the same
         A#m    G#
So, it's better off this way

(Ah-ah, ah-ahh)

Chorus:
The city's never seen a love like ours
We were teenage dreams, we were movie stars
And now it's pitch black, dark, and you're gone
Where did we go wrong?
This was supposed to be a love song
Fallin' too hard, we burned too fast
Now there's no way out and there's no way back
And now it's pitch black, dark, and you're gone
(And you're gone)
Where did we go wrong?
This was supposed to be a love song
