E A E |
Hey... |
E A |
Sheets of empty canvas |
E A |
untouched sheets of clay |
E A |
Were laid spread out before me |
E |
as her body once did |
E A E A |
All five horizons revolved around her soul |
A |
As the earth to the sun |
E A |
Now the air I tasted and breathed |
E |
has taken a turn |
C E |
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything |
C E |
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore |
D |
And now my bitter hands chafe |
C |
beneath the clouds |
E |
Of what was everything? |
D C |
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black |
E |
tattooed everything... |
E A |
I take a walk outside |
E A |
I'm surrounded by some kids at play |
E A E |
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear |
C |
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin |
E |
round my head I'm spinning |
C |
oh, I'm spinning |
E |
How quick the sun can, drop away |
D C |
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass |
E |
Of what was everything? |
D C |
All the pictures have all been washed in black |
E |
tattooed everything... |
D C |
All the love gone bad turned my world to black |
D C |
Tattooed all I see, all that I am |
E D C |
all I'll ever be... yeah... |

Uh huh... uh huh... ooh... |
E |
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life |
D |
I know you'll be a star |
C E |
In somebody else's sky, but why |
D C |
Why, why can't it be |
E D C E D C E |
why can't it be mine |
