Holland 1945 Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

C

Muted strumming during "One... Two..."

CThe only girl I've ever Gloved

CWas born with roses in herG eyes

CBut then they buried her alGive

 One evening D1945 C

 With just her Dsister at her Gside

 And only Dweeks before the gCuns

 All came and Drained on everyGone

 Now she's a Dlittle boy in SCpain

 Playing piaDnos filled with fGlames

 On empty Drings around the Csun

 All sing to Dsay my dream has Gcome

 But now we must Cpick up everGy piece

 Of the Clife we used toG love

 Just to Ckeep ourseGlves

 At least enoCugh to carry on D

Same as Verse 1:

And now we ride the circus wheel

With your dark brother wrapped in white

Says it was good to be alive

But now he rides a comet's flame

And won't be coming back again

The Earth looks better from a star

That's right above from where you are

He didn't mean to make you cry

With sparks that ring and bullets fly

On empty rings around your heart

The world just screams and falls apart

 But now we must Cpick up everGy piece

 Of the Clife we used toG love

 Just to Ckeep ourseGlves

 At least enoCugh to carry on D

 And here's where youCr mother Gsleeps

 And here is the Croom where your Gbrothers were boDrn

 IndentiCons in theG sheets

 Where their bodies once Cmoved but don't Gmove anyDmore

 And it's so Csad to Gsee the Cworld agrGee

 That they'd rather see their Cfaces fill withD flies

 All when I'd Cwant to keep white Droses in their Geyes

Play C, G repeating until the end
