[Verse 1]
Am7       E7sus4
Love is a catastrophe
Am7            E7sus4
Look what it's done to me
Cadd9                   Fmaj7(add13)
Brought me down here so low
Bdim         E7-13       [ Am7 ]
   Stranded, nowhere to go

[Verse 2]
Am7          E7sus4
    No concentration 
Am7                     E7sus4
   Just rerunning conversation 
Cadd9          Fmaj7(add13)
Trying to understand 
Bdim         E7-13    [ Am7 ]
How I fell into this quicksand

[Verse 3]
Am7             E7sus4
   What happens next?
Am7                    E7sus4
    With life I'm unimpressed
Cadd9                Fmaj7(add13)
Pain like a cutter's knife
Bdim          E7-13          [ Am7 ]
   Never been lonelier in my life

[Verse 4]
Am7                  E7sus4
   Who issued the instruction
Am7                       E7sus4
    For this mad act of destruction?
Cadd9             Fmaj7(add13)
    An end to equilibrium
Bdim           E7-13               [ Am7 ]
Fate laughs:       Look what we've done to him

[Verse 5]
Am7                     E7sus4
  High wind through the trees
Am7                  E7sus4
    Falling November leaves
  Cadd9            Fmaj7(add13)
A weak sun hanging low
Bdim          E7-13    | Am7 | % | E7sus4 | % | Am7 | % | E7sus4 | % |
       Summer seems        so long ago

[Bridge]
F(add#11)     Am(add9)
All my former dreams 
F(add#11)       Am(add9)
Tender romantic schemes 
  F(add#11)      Am(add9)
Revealed as so naive 
   F(add#11)       Am(add9)
To think I could believe

[Verse 6]
   Am7                 E7sus4
In love as the kindest law 
Am7         E7sus4
Not as a declaration of war 
Cadd9          Fmaj7(add13)
On my life and sanity 
Bdim          E7aug    Am7
Now I know at last for me 
            Am7
Love is a catastrophe
