	C	G
	The only girl I've ev	er loved

	C	G
	Was born with roses in	her eyes

	C	G
	But then they buried her	alive

	D	C
One evening	nineteen-forty-	five

	D	G
With just her	sister at her	side

	D	C
And only	weeks before the	guns

	D	G
All came and	rained on ever	yone

	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	G
All sing to	say my dream	has com	e

	C	G
But now we must	pick up every	piece

	C	G
Of the	life we used to	love

	C
Just to	keep ourselves

	G	D
At	least enough to c	arry on

(same as verse1)

And now we ride the circus wheel

With your dark brother wrapped in white

Says it was good to be alive

But now he rides a comet's flame

And won't be coming back again

The Earth looks better from a star

That's right above from where you are

He didn't mean to make you cry

With sparks that ring and bullets fly

On empty rings around your heart

The world just screams and falls apart

	G	A	C	C	G
And	here's	where	your	mother	sleeps

	G	A	C	C	G	D
And	here	is	the	room where your	brothers were	born

	G	A	C	C	G
	In	den	tions	in the	sheets

	G	A	C	C	G	D
Where their	bo	dies	once	moved but don't	move an	ymore

	C	G	C	G
And it's so	sad to	see the	world	agree

	C	G	D
That they'd	rather see their	faces filled with	flies

	G	A	C	C	G	C
	All	when	I'd	want to	keep	white roses in their eyes
