[Verse 1]
A
I've been looking so
D
long at these pictures
A
of you That I almost
believe that they're
D A
real I've been living
so long with my
D
pictures of you
A
That I almost
believe that
D
the pictures are
A D A D
All I can feel
[Verse 2]
A
Remembering
You standing
D
quiet in the rain
A
As I ran to your
D
heart to be near
A
And we kissed as
the sky fell in
D
Holding you close
A
How I always held
D
close in your fear
[Verse 3]
A
Remembering
D
You running soft
through the night
A
You were bigger
and brighter and
D
wider than snow
A
And screamed at
the make believe
D
Screamed at the
sky And you
A
finally found
D
all your courage
A D A D
To let it all go
[Verse 4]
A
Remembering
You fallen
D
into my arms
A
Crying for the
death of your
D
heart You were
A
stone white
So delicate
D
Lost in the cold
A
You were always
D
so lost in the dark
[Verse 5]
A
Remembering
D
You how you
used to be
A
Slow drowned
You were angels
D
So much more than
A
everything Hold
for the last time
D
then slip away
A
quietly Open my
D
eyes But I never
see anything
[Chorus 1]
E
If only I'd thought
D
of the right words
E
I could have held
D
on to your heart
E
If only I'd thought
D
of the right
E
words I wouldn't
be breaking
D
apart All my
A D A D A D A D
pictures of you
[Verse 6]
A
Looking so long at
D
these pictures of
A
you But I never
hold on to your
D A
heart Looking so
D
long for the words
to be true But
A
always just
D
breaking apart
A D A D A D A D
My pictures of you

[Chorus 2]
A
There was nothing
in the world
Bm
That I ever wanted
A/C#
more Than to feel
D
you deep in my heart

There was nothing in
the world That I
D
ever wanted more Than

to never feel the

breaking apart All
A
