Am7       D
A dying flame
Gmaj7         Em
you're free again
Am7        D
who could love
G
and do that to you.

Am7              D
All dressed in black
Gmaj7        Em
he won't be coming back.
Am7              D
Well, save your tears
Esus4                 E7
you've got years and years.

Am7           D
The pains of seventeens
Gmaj7           Em
unreal, they're only dreams.
Am7         D
Save your crying
        Esus4 E7
for the day.

Chorus:
 Am7                    D
Fool, if you think it's over,
Gmaj7             Em
'cos you said goodbye.
 Am7                    D
Fool, if you think it's over,
               Esus4 E7
I'll tell you why.
 Am7                   D
New born eyes always cry with pain
Gmaj7                            Em
at the first look at the morning sun
 Am7                    D
Fool, if you think it's over,
           Esus4 E7
it's just begun.

Miss Teenage Dream
Such a tragic scene
He knocked your crown
And ran away

First wound of pride
And how you cried and cried
But save your tears
You've got years and years

Chorus:
Fool if you think it's over
'Cause you said goodbye
Fool if you think it's over
I'll tell you why

(Fool if you think it's over)
(Fool if you think it's over)

I'll buy your first good wine
We'll have a real good time
Save your crying for the day

That may not come
But anyone
Who had to pay
Would laugh at you and say

Chorus:
Fool if you think it's over
'Cause you said goodbye
Fool if you think it's over
I'll tell you why

New born eyes always cry with pain
At the first look at the morning sun
You're a fool if you think it's over
It's just begun

Chorus:
I'll buy your first good wine
Oooh, we'll have a real good time
Save your crying for the day

New born eyes always cry with pain
At the first look at the morning sun
You're a fool if you think it's over
It's just begun
