exactly where to play each chord with this song.
[Am] All the rowboats[E] in the paintings
[F] They keep trying to [Dm]row away
[Am] And the captains'[E] worried faces
[F] Stay contorted and [Dm]staring at the waves
[Am] They'll keep hang[E]ing in their gold frames
[F] For forever, for[Dm]ever and a day
[Am] All the rowboats[E] in the oil paintings
[F] They keep trying to [Dm]row away, row away
(Repeat same chords for whole song)
Hear them whispering French and German
Dutch, Italian, and Latin
When no one's looking I touch a sculpture
Marble, cold, and soft as satin
But the most special are the most lonely
God, I pity the violins
In glass coffins they keep coughing
They've forgotten, forgotten how to sing, how to sing
First there's lights out, then there's lock up
Masterpieces serving maximum sentences
It's their own fault for being timeless
There's a price to pay and a consequence
All the galleries, the museums
Here's your ticket, welcome to the tombs
They're just public mausoleums
The living dead fill every room
But the most special are the most lonely
God, I pity the violins
In glass coffins they keep coughing
They've forgotten, forgotten how to sing
They will stay there in their gold frames
For forever, forever and a day
All the rowboats in the oil paintings
They keep trying to row away, row away
First there's lights out, then there's lock up
Masterpieces serving maximum sentences
It's their own fault for being timeless
There's a price to pay and a consequence
All the galleries, the museums
They will stay there forever and a day
All the rowboats in the oil paintings
They keep trying to row away, row away
All the rowboats in the oil paintings
They keep trying to row away, row away
Hope this helps you guys out!!!
