G
[Verse]
G D Em
Last night I went blind painting some pictures of you
G D Em
I built you a house and I dreamt you a view
C/G G
Didn't want to wake up, didn't want to come 'round
D Em G
I knew when I did, I would not hear a sound
G D Em
You gave me your hand and I gave you my heart
G G/F# Em
I gave you my life, you ripped it apart
C/G G
Leaving me stripped, my warts and all
D Em
Took off my mask and you built me a wall
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
C/G Em
When I'm alone your beckon calls
D C C/G
You were there for the rise, never there for the fall
C/G C/G
Leaving me stripped, my warts and all
D C C/G G
Took off my mask and you built me a wall
[Outro]
G D Em
Tonight I'll go blind painting pictures of you
D C/G
I'll build you a house and I'll dream you a view
G D Em
Won't want to wake up, won't want to come 'round
D C
I know when I do, I will not hear a sound
