4Verse:
F6                        C7
5The only girl I've ever loved
F8                          C9
6Was born with roses in her eyes
F10                         C11
7But then they buried her alive
            G12                F13
8One evening Nine-teen-forty-five
              G14              C15
9With just her sister at her side
         G16                 F17
10And only weeks before the guns
             G18              C19
11All came and rained on everyone
            G20              F21
12Now she's a little boy in Spain
          G22                 C23
13Playing pianos filled with flames
         G24                F25
14On empty rings around the sun
            G26                C27
15All sing to say my dream has come
16
17Chorus:
                F28             C29
18But now we must pick up every piece
        F30               C31
19Of this life we used to love
        F32                 C33
20Just to keep ourselves at least
                G34
21Enough to carry on!

23Verse:
F35                          C36
24And now we ride the circus wheel
F37                                 C38
25With your dark brother wrapped in white
F39                       C40
26Says it was good to be alive
           G41               F42
27But now he rides a comet's flame
              G43           C44
28And won't be coming back again
                G45             F46
29The Earth looks better from a star
              G47                   C48
30That's right above from where you are
           G49               F50
31He didn't mean to make you cry
                 G51                C52
32With sparks that ring and bullets fly
         G53                 F54
33On empty rings around your heart
               G55                 C56
34The world just screams and falls apart
35
36Chorus:
                F57             C58
37But now we must pick up every piece
       F59               C60
38Of the life we used to love
        F61                  C62
39Just to keep ourselves at least
                G63
40Enough to carry on!

42Verse:
  C64    D65      E66     F67        C68
43And here's where your mother sleeps
  C69   D70  E71      F72               C73             G74
44And here is the room where your brothers were born
C75  D76   E77     F78       C79
45In-den-tions in the sheets
            F80            C81              F82       G83
46Where their bodies once moved but don't move anymore
            F84      C85       F86      C87
47And it's so sad to see the world agree
            F88                C89                G90
48That they'd rather see their faces fill with flies
             F91                  G92               C93
49All when I'd want to keep white roses in their eyes
