Neutral Milk Hotel - Holland 1945 Chords & Tabs

Holland, 1945

C				G
The only girl I've ever loved
C				G
Was born with roses in her eyes
C				G		
But then they buried her alive 
			D
One evening 1945
C		D			G			
With just her sister at her side 
D					C			
And only weeks before the guns 
D					G	
All came and rained on everyone 
D					C
Now she's a little boy in Spain 
D					G
Playing pianos filled with flames
D					C
On empty rings around the sun
D					C
All sing to say my dream has come
C					G
But now we must pick up every piece
C				G		
Of the life we used to love 
C			G		
Just to keep ourselves
C				D
At least enough to carry on
C					G
And now we ride the circus wheel
C						G
With your dark brother wrapped in white
C				G
Says it was good to be alive
		D
But now he rides a comet's flame

C		D			G
And won't be coming back again
G			D		C
The Earth looks better from a star
D				G					
That's right above from where you are 
D			C		
He didn't mean to make you cry 
			D			G
With sparks that ring and bullets fly 
		D			C
On empty rings around your heart
			D			C
The world just screams and falls apart 
			C			G
But now we must pick up every piece
	C			G	
Of the life we used to love
C				
Just to keep ourselves
G		D
At least enough to carry on

	G			C		G
And here's where your mother sleeps
	G			C		G		D	
And here is the room where your brothers were born
G		C	G	
Indentions in the sheets 
		G		C			G		D
Where their bodies once moved but don't move anymore
C	G	C	G	
And it's so sad to see the world agree 
		G			C		D
That they'd rather see their faces fill with flies
G			C		D			G
All when I'd want to keep white roses in their eyes
