 Intro:
 E7  A  E7  A  E7  A  E
 
 
 Verse 1:
 E7                 A
 Sheets of empty canvas
          E7              A
 Untouched sheets of clay 
      E7                  A          E
 Were laid spread out before me as her body once did
 E7           A                   
 All five horizons revolved 
 E7              A
 Around her soul, as the earth to the sun
 E7            A                      E
 Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
 
 
 Pre-Chorus:
     C                              Em 
 Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
     C                            Em
 Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
 
 
 Chorus:
            Dsus2                C                                 Em
 And now my bitter hands shade beneath the clouds of what was everything
         Dsus2                  C                              Em
 All the pictures have all been washed in black tattooed every day
 
 
 Verse 2:
 E7        A
  I take a walk outside
        E7              A
 I'm surrounded by some kids at play
 E7                 A         E
 I can feel their laughter,  so why do I sear?
 
 
 Pre-Chorus:
    C                                      Em
 Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head, I'm spinning
          C                                    Em
 Oh, I'm spinning, how quick the sun can drop away
 
 
 Chorus:
            Dsus2               C                             Em
 And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass of what was everything
         Dsus2                  C                             Em
 All the pictures have all been washed in black tattooed everything
         Dsus2                   C
 All the love gone bad turned my world to black
              Dsus2          C                  Em
 Tattooed all I see all that I am all that I'll be         yeah
 Dsus2   C       Em
 Uh huh  uh huh  ooh
 Dsus2                                   
 I know someday you'll have a beautiful life
  C                        Em
 I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky 
 Dsus2         C           Em                   
 But why, why, why can't it be, oh, can't it be 
 Dsus2    C     Em
 Mine?
 Dus2        C         Em
 Ooh    ahhh yeah  ahh ooh
 
 Dsus2    C                    Em
             Do do do do do do do   do do do do do do
 Dsus2                    C                      Em
 Do     do do do do do do do   do do do do do do do  do do do do do do
 
 
 Dsus2  -  C  -  Em
