Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
E A E
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did
E Asus2 E Asus2
All five horizons revolved around her soul as the earth to the sun
E A E
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
C Em
Hmmmm, and all I taught her was everything
C Em
Hmmmm, I know she gave me all that she wore
D
And now my bitter hands,
C
Chafe beneath clouds
Em
Of what was everything
D
Oh, the pictures
C
Have all been washed in black
Em
Tattooed everything

I take a walk outside I'm surrounded by some kids at play
E A E
Oh, I can feel their laughter so, why do I sear
C Em
Hmmmm, and twisted thoughts that spin 'round my head, I'm spinning, oh
C Em
I'm spinning, How quick the sun can drop away
D
And now my bitter hands
C
Cradle broken glass
Em
Of what was everything
D
All the pictures have
C
All been washed in black
Em
Tattooed everything
D
All the love gone bad
C
Turned my world to black
D
And tattooed all I see,
C
All that I am,
Em
All I'll be
D C Em D C
Yeah Uh huh Uh huh
Em
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
D C
I know you'll be a star in somebody elses sky
Em D C
But why, why, why can't it be,
C Em D C
Why can't it be mine
