	C	G
	The only girl I've ever loved

	C	G
	Was born with roses in her eyes

	C	G
	But then they buried her alive

	D
One evening 1945

	C	D	G
	With just her si	ster at her side

	D	C
	And only weeks before the guns

	D	G
	All came and rained on everyone

	D	C
	Now she's a little boy in Spain

	D	G
	Playing pianos filled with flames

	D	C
	On empty rings around the sun

	D	C
	All sing to say my dream has come

	C	G
	But now we must pick up every piece

	C	G
	Of the life we used to love

	C	G
	Just to keep ourselves

	C	D
	At least enough to carry on

	C	G
	And now we ride the circus wheel

	C	G
	With your dark brother wrapped in white

	C	G
	Says it was good to be alive

	D
But now he rides	a comet's flame

	C	D	G
	And won't be com	ing back again

	G	D	C
	The Earth looks better f	rom a star

	D	G
	That's right above from where yo	u are

	D	C
	He didn't mean to make y	ou cry

	D	G
With sparks that ring an	d bullets fly

	D	C
On empty rings a	round your heart

	D	C
The world just screams a	nd falls apart

	C	G
But now we must pick up	every piece

	C	G
Of the l	ife we used to love

	C
	Just to keep ourselves

	G	D
	At least enough	to carry on

	G	C	G
And here	's where your mother sle	eps

	G	C	G
And here	is the room where your	brothers were bo	rn

	G	C	G
	Indentions in th	e sheets

	G	C	G
Where their bodi	es once moved bu	t don't move anymore

	C	G	C	G
	And it's	so sad	to see t	he world agree

	G	C	D
That they'd rath	er see their faces fill	with flies

	G	C	D
	All when I'd want to kee	p white roses in	their eyes
