Verse 1
A C#m B
Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street
A
Faster than the wind
C#m B
Passionate as sin, ended so suddenly
A
Loving him is like trying to change your mind
C#m B
Once you’re already flying through the free fall
A
Like the colors in autumn
C#m B (Pause)
So bright just before they lose it all
Chorus
A E
Losing him was blue like I’d never known
B
Missing him was dark grey all alone
A C#m B
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you've never met
A C#m B
But loving him was red
A C#m B (Pause)
Loving him was red
Verse 2
A C#m B
Touching him is like realizing all you ever wanted was right there in front of you
A C#m B
Memorizing him was as easy as knowing all the words to your old favorite song
A C#m B
Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and realizing there’s no right answer
A C#m B
Regretting him was like wishing you never found out love could be that strong
Chorus
A E
Losing him was blue like I’d never known
B
Missing him was dark grey all alone
A C#m B
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you've never met
A C#m
But loving him was red
B A C#m B
Oh red burning red
Bridge
A B
Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes
C#m B (or E/Eb) E
Tell myself it’s time now, gotta let go
A G#m
But moving on from him is impossible
B
When I still see it all in my head
