Intro: D5 A5 x4


E		 A		  E 		   A	
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched  sheets of clay.
      E		        A 	   E                A
were laid spread out before me as her body once did


E           A                   E              A
...All five horizons revolved around her soul    As the earth to the sun
E               A                      E            E
Now the air I tasted and breathed Has taken a turn 


  C                                   E
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
  C                                   E
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore

            D
And now my bitter hands
         C
shade beneath the clouds
                 E 
Of what was everything?
           D                
Oh, the pictures seared 
          C 
all been washed in black
                E          A
 Tattooed everything...



E            A			E                     A 
...I take a walk outside, I'm surrounded by some kids at play
  E		     A	        E   		E
..I can feel their laughter, So why do I sear?


C					E
and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
			    C	                              E  
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning,	How quick the sun can, drop away

             D                  
And now my bitter hands 
         C
cradle broken glass
                 E  
Of what was everything
          D  
All the pictures seared 
           C
all been washed in black,
               E
tattooed everything...
          D  
All the love gone bad
            C
Turned my world to black
             D               C              E     D     A
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be.........yeah...
 E         D       A  
Uh huh...uh huh...ooh...

   E                                         D                       
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be the sun
  A                          E        D             A                                
In somebody else's sky, but why Why, why can't it be  
	     E     D   A
