**Chords:**
Em  G  D  A

Em               G  
Sheets of empty canvas  
D                     A  
Untouched sheets of clay  
Em               G  
Were laid spread out before me  
D                       A  
As her body once did  
Em                  G  
All five horizons revolved around her soul  
D                     A  
As the earth to the sun  
Em                  G  
Now the air I tasted and breathed  
D                   A  
Has taken a turn  

Em          G  
Ooooh, and all I taught her was  
D                A  
Everything  

Em                  G  
Ooooh, I know she gave me all that she wore  
D                      A  
And now my bitter hands  
Em                      G  
Cradle broken glass  
D                      A  
Of what was everything  
Em                  G  
All the pictures had  
D                    A  
All been washed in black  
Em                   G  
Tattooed everything  

Em              G  
All the love gone bad  
D                 A  
Turned my world to black  
Em                     G  
Tattooed all I see  
D                      A  
All that I am  
Em                     G  
And all that I was  
D                     A  
Is gone  

Em                  G  
Ooooh, I know she gave me all that she wore  
D                      A  
And now my bitter hands  
Em                      G  
Cradle broken glass  
D                      A  
Of what was everything  
Em                  G  
All the pictures had  
D                    A  
All been washed in black  
Em                   G  
Tattooed everything  

Em              G  
Ooooh...  
D             A  
Ooooh...  
Em              G  
Ooooh...  
D             A  
Ooooh...
