[Intro]
E               Asus2             E              Asus2

[Verse 1]
|E             |  Asus2          |   E   |           Asus2 |
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
|     E           |      A         |     E |   E |
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did
| E   |        Asus2  |        E    |            Asus2 |
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

[Pre-chorus 1]
| C  | C |                          Em|          Em |
Oh, and all I taught her was everything
| C  | C |                                   Em | Em | 
Oh, I know she gave me all that she wore

[Chorus]
| D |
And now my bitter hands,
| C |
Chafe beneath the clouds
| Em |
Of what was everything
| D |
All the pictures have
| C |
All been washed in black
| Em |
Tattooed everything

[Verse 2]
|E    |    Asus2   |             E      |         Asus2|
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

[Pre-chorus 2]
| C |                  C |                  Em |       Em |
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin 'round my head, I'm spinning, oh
 |   C   | C |                Em |                    Em|
I'm spinning, how quick the sun can drop away

[Chorus]
| 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|
And tattooed all I see,
| C|
All that I am,
|Em|
All that I'll be

[Bridge]
|D  | C  |   Em |     D  |     C|
  Yeah  Uh huh  Uh huh  Uh
| Em | 
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
 | D              |         C|
I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky
   | Em      |  D            |
But why, why, why can't it be,
| C        |        Em | D  |C|
Oh can't it be mine
|Em     | D   |     C|
ooh, ah yeah, aah ooh
|C         |               Em|
(Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo)
|Em            |           D|
(Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo)

[Outro] 
|D             |          C|
Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo
|C             |          Em|
Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo
|Em       |               D|
Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo
