A D I just looked into my life Bm F#m And all I saw was that you're not coming back D Bm C#m Oh, can't you see when the ballad comes for you Bm E It comes like me? But I won't be afraid I can't seem to find you in this midnight parade I know it's all true When the ballad comes for me, it comes like you Chorus: Gmaj7 F#m Up close C I fell in love with you C (I met you at an early show) Gmaj7 F#m C You fall, I'll fall along with you C Gmaj7 (We travelled 'round the world together) I just looked out to the point Where the words, they are hitting me In a full-on assault Oh, can't you see when the ballad comes for you It comes like me? Well, I know I can't change the times I know I'm already breaking when I look into your eyes Oh, can't you see when the ballad comes for you It comes like me?
