Pictures Of You (CRD)
i've been [A]looking so long at these p[D]ictures of you
that i almost believe that they're real
i've been living so long with my pictures of you
that i almost believe that the pictures are all i can feel
remembering you standing quiet in the rain
as i ran to your heart to be near
and we kissed as the sky fell in holding you close
how i always held close in your fear
remembering you, running soft through the night
you were bigger and brighter and wider than snow
and screamed at the make-believe screamed at the sky
and you finally found all your courage to let it all go
remembering you fallen into my arms, crying for the death of your heart
you were stone white so delicate lost in the cold
you were always so lost in the dark
remembering you how you used to be
slow drowned you were angles so much more than everything
oh hold for the last time then slip away quietly
open my eyes but i never see anything
if o[E]nly i'd thought of the r[D]ight words
i [E]could have held onto you[D]r heart
if o[E]nly i'd thought of the r[D]ight words
i w[E]ouldn't be breaking a[Bm7]part all my pictures of [A]you
looking so long at these pictures of you
but i never held onto your heart
looking so long for the words to be true
but always just breaking apart my pictures of you
Bridge: A Bm7 A/C# D A/C# D A/E D/F#
there was no[A]thing in the world
that i e[Bm7]ver wanted more than to [A/C#]feel you deep in my he[D]art
there was no[A/C#]thing in the world
that i e[D]ver wanted more that to n[A/E]ever feel the breaking
a[D/F#]part all my pictures of y[D]ou
