[Verse 1]

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 sister 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


[Chorus]

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


[Verse 2]

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 coming back again
G                       D               C
The Earth looks better from a star
D                               G                                       
That's right above from where you are 
D                       C               
He didn't mean to make you cry 
                        D                       G
With sparks that ring and bullets fly 
                D                       C
On empty rings around your heart
                        D                       C
The world just screams and falls apart 


[Chorus]

                        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 carry on


[Verse 3]

        G                       C               G
And here's where your mother sleeps
        G                       C               G               D       
And here is the room where your brothers were born
G               C       G       
Indentions in the sheets 
                G               C                       G               D
Where their bodies once moved but don't move anymore
C       G       C       G       
And it's so sad to see the world agree 
                G                       C               D
That they'd rather see their faces fill with flies
G                       C               D                       G
All when I'd want to keep white roses in their eyes
