Verse 1
(C major) The only girl I've e (G major) ver loved
(C major) Was born with roses in her (G major) eyes
(C major) But then they buried her alive (G major)
One evening in (D major) nineteen-forty-five (C major)
With just her sister (D major) at her side (G major)
And only weeks (D major) before the guns (C major)
All came and rained (D major) on every one
(G major) Now she's a little (D major) boy in Spain (C major)
Playing pianos (D major) filled with flames (G major)
On empty rings (D major) around the sun (C major)
I'll sing to say (D major) my dream has (C major) come (G major)

Chorus 1
But now we must (C major) pack up every (G major) piece
Of the (C major) life we used to (G major) love
Just to (C major) keep ourselves
At (G major) least enough to carry (D major) on
Verse 2
(C major) And now we ride the cir (G major) cus wheel
(C major) With your dark brother wrapped (G major) in white
(C major) Says it was good to be alive (G major)
But now he rides (D major) a comet's flame (C major)
And won't be coming (D major) back again (G major)
The Earth looks (D major) better from a star (C major)
That's right above (D major) from where you are (G major)
He didn't mean (D major) to make you cry (C major)
With sparks that ring (D major) and bullets fly (G major)
On empty rings (D major) around your heart (C major)
The world just screams (D major) and falls (C major) apart (G major)
Chorus 2
But now we must (C major) pack up every (G major) piece
Of the (C major) life we used to (G major) love

And (G major) here's (G/A) where (G/B) your
Bridge 1
(C major) mother (G major) sleeps

In (G major) den (G/A) tan (G/B) tions (C major) in the (G major) sheets
Where their bo (G/A) dies (G/B) once (C major) moved but don't
(G major) move any (D major) more
And it's so (C major) sad to (G major) see the (C major) world ag (G major) ree
That they'd (C major) rather see their
faces (G major) filled with (D major) flies
(G major) All (G/A) when (G/B) I'd (C major) want to (G major) keep white
(D major) roses in their (G major) eyes
