Intro
F#add9 G#add11 A#m7
A#m7 C# F#add9
[Verso 1]
F#add9 G#add11 A#m7
Talked about reasons to stay here
A#m7 C# F#add9
And stories were never lived down
F#add9 G#add11 A#m7
Spoke as the morning grew warmer
A#m7 C# F#add9
Of murmurs from this side of town
[Pré-Refrão]
F#add9 G#add11 A#m7
Sat from you across the table
A#m7 C# F#add9
Your mother said grace as we tried not to laugh
F#add9 G#add11 A#m7
Slept on the roof and we knew
A#m7 C# F#add9
That it was two nights that wed never get back
[Refrão]
A#m7
Oh when I close my eyes
G#add11 C#
I see a picture of you and I
F#add9
In black and white
A#m7
When I close my eyes
G#add11 C#
You're layin' down with me into the night
F#add9
Under satellites
N.C.
Under the satellites
[Verso 2]
F#add9 G#add11 A#m7
We joked about leaving an imprint
A#m7 C# F#add9
And summers we carved in the grass
F#add9 G#add11 A#m7
Thought that we wrote it in stone you get older
A#m7 C# F#add9
to realize it's all made of glass
[Pré-Refrão]
F#add9 G#add11 A#m7
Sat from you across the table
A#m7 C# F#add9
Your mother said grace as we tried not to laugh
F#add9 G#add11 A#m7
And I don't mean to paint you unfaithful
A#m7 C# F#add9
But is it a lot is it too much to ask
[Refrão]
A#m7
Oh when I close my eyes
G#add11 C#
I see a picture of you and I
F#add9
In black and white
A#m7
When I close my eyes
G#add11 C#
You're layin' down with me into the night
F#add9
Under satellites
[Ponte]
A#m7
Under satellites
G#add11
Into the night
F#add9
I still see your smile, woah
A#m7
Satellites
G#add11
It's you and I
F#add9
I still see your smile

Do you see a picture of you and I
F#add9
In black and white
A#m7
Oh when I close my eyes

I see a picture of you and I

In black and white
