[Verse 1]
E A Asus4 A
Sheets of empty canvas
E A Asus4 A
untouched sheets of clay
E A
lay spread out before me
E
as her body once did
E A Asus4 A
All five horizons,
E A Asus4 A
revolved around her soul (as the earth to the sun)
E A
Now the air I tasted and breathed,
E
has taken a turn
C Em
Oooh and all I taught her was… everything
C Em
Oooh all I know she gave all… that she wore

[Hook]
D
And now my bitter hands
C
chafe beneath the clouds
Em
Of what was everything
D C
All the pictures have all been washed in black
Em
Tatooed everything.

[Verse 2]
E A Asus4 A
I take a walk outside
E A Asus4 A
I’m surrounded by some kids at play
E A
I can feel their laughter
E
So why do i seer
C Em
Ooh and twisted thoughts they spin round my head (I’m spinnin’)
C Em
Oooh I’m spinning how quick the sun can drop awayayayayay

[Hook]
D
And now my bitter hands
C
cradle broken glass
Em
of what was everything
D C
All my pictures have all been washed in black
Em
Tatooed everything

[Verse 3]
D
All my love gone bad
C
turned my world to black
D
tatooed all I see
C
All that I am
Em D C
All I’ll ever beeeeeeee yeaahheah

Em D C

Em
I know some day you’ll have a beautiful life
D
I know you’ll be a sun,
C Em D
In somebody elses sky, but whyhy, whyhy whyhy
C Em
can’t it be, oh can’t it be mine.
