Holland 1945

	  		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              C 
One evening nineteen-forty-five 
              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      G 
All sing to say my dream has come 

                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 

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 
G          D               C 
But now he rides a comet's flame 
             D          G 
And won't be coming back again 
                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     G 
The world just screams and falls apart 

                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 

    G      A     C    C      G 
And here's where your mother sleeps 
    G    A  C   C               G             D 
And here is the room where your brothers were born 
G A  C     C      G 
Indentations in the sheets 
            G A    C    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 
            C                G                 D 
That they'd rather see their faces filled with flies 
G   A    C   C       G    C                    G    
All when I'd want to keep white roses in their eyes 

Final C  G  C  D  C  G
