[D5] [A5] x4

[E]Sheets of empty c[A]anvas, untouched [E] sheets of clay. [A]
were l[E]aid spread out bef[A]ore me as h[E]er body once did [A]

[E]...All five [A]horizons revolved ar[E]ound her soul  [A]  As the earth to the sun
[E]Now the air I ta[A]sted and breathed Has t[E]aken a turn  [E]

Oo[C]h, and all I taught her was everythi[E]ng
Oo[C]h, I know she gave me all that she w[E]ore

And now my b[D]itter hands
shade ben[C]eath the clouds
Of what was every[E]thing?
Oh, the pic[D]tures seared
all been w[C]ashed in black
 Tattooed everyt[E]hing...    [A]

[E]...I take a w[A]alk outside, I'm su[E]rrounded by some kids [A]at play
..[E]I can feel their la[A]ughter, So [E]why do I sear?  [E]

[C]and twisted thoughts that spin round my [E]head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinni[C]ng, How quick the sun can, drop aw[E]ay

And now my bi[D]tter hands
cradle br[C]oken glass
Of what was every[E]thing
All the pi[D]ctures seared
all been wa[C]shed in black,
tattooed everyt[E]hing...
All the lo[D]ve gone bad
Turned my wo[C]rld to black
Tattooed all [D]I see, all that [C]I am, all I'll [E]be....[D].....y[A]eah...
U[E]h huh...uh[D] huh...o[A]oh...

I k[E]now someday you'll have a beautiful life, [D]I know you'll be the sun
In[A] somebody else's sky, but w[E]hy Why, w[D]hy can't it be[A]
can't it be m[E]iiiine[D]eeee[A]e...
