Tom: E
E A9sus Sheets of empty canvas, E A9sus Untouched sheets of clay __ E A9sus Were laid spread out before me E As her body once did
A9sus All five horizons E A9sus Revolved around her soul __
As the Earth to the Sun E A9sus Now the air I tasted and breathed E Has taken a turn
C Em Oh, and all I taught that was everything C Em Oh, I know she gave me all that she wore
D And now my bitter hands C Chafe beneath the clouds Em Of what was everything
D Oh, the pictures have C All been washed in black Em Tattooed everything
A9sus I take a walk outside E A9sus I'm surrounded by some kids at play E A9sus I can feel their laughter E So why do I sear
C Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin Em Round my head C I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning Em 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 Tattooed all I see C All that I am Em D C Em D C All that I'll be, yeah
Em I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, D I know you'll be a star C Em D In somebody else's sky, but why, why, why C Em Can't it be, can't it be mine
