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