	        Intro E Asus2

E               Asus2 
Sheets of empty canvas 
          E              Asus2 
untouched sheets of clay 
E                Asus2       
Were laid spread out before me  
       E 
as her body once did 

E           Asus2 
All five horizons,  
          E             Asus2 
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 me all... that she wore 
       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 
Tattooed everything. 

  E      Asus2 
I take a walk outside 
       E               Asus2 
I'm surrounded by some kids at play 
E                Asus2         
I can feel their laughter 
   E        
So why do I swear? 
    C                                          Em 
Ooh and twisted thoughts that spin round my head  
                         C                              Em 
Oooh I'm spinning,oh 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                      C 
All the pictures have 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 
All that I'll beeeeee    yeaahheah 

Em    D    C 
Hum...uh 

  Em                          
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life 
  D 
I know you'll be a star,  
   C                   Em             D 
In somebody elses sky, whyhy, whyhy   whyhy 
           C                 Em D C         
can't it be, oh can't it be mine. 

Em  D  C... 
Tchruruu.... Yeah ... uhh...
