C G

CThe only girl I've ever lGoved

CWas born with roses in her Geyes

CBut then they buried her aGlive

 One evening DNine-teen-forty-fCive

 With just her Dsister at her sGide

 And only Dweeks before the gCuns

 All came and Drained on everyGone

 Now she's a Dlittle boy in SCpain

 Playing piDanos filled with fGlames

 On empty Drings around the Csun

 All sing to Dsay my dream has Gcome

 But now we must Cpick up every Gpiece

 Of this Clife we used to Glove

 Just to Ckeep ourselves at Gleast

 Enough to carry Don!

CAnd now we ride the circus Gwheel

CWith your dark brother wrapped in Gwhite

CSays it was good to be aGlive

 But now he Drides a comet's Cflame

 And won't be cDoming back aGgain

 The Earth looks Dbetter from a Cstar

 That's right aDbove from where you Gare

 He didn't mDean to make you Ccry

 With sparks that Dring and bullets Gfly

 On empty Drings around your Cheart

 The world just Dscreams and falls Gapart

 But now we must Cpick up every Gpiece

 Of the Clife we used to Glove

 Just to Ckeep ourselves at lGeast

 Enough to carry Don!

 AnGd herAe's wheBre youCr mother Gsleeps

 AnGd heAre Bis the Croom where your Gbrothers were Dborn

 IGn-deAn-tiBons Cin the sGheets

 Where their Cbodies once mGoved but don't Cmove anyDmore

 And it's so Csad to Gsee the Cworld aGgree

 That they'd Crather see their Gfaces fill with fDlies

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