[Verse]
          A7                       D              
I've been looking so long at these pictures of you
       A7                          D   
That I almost believe that they're real
          A7                     D              
I've been living so long with my pictures of you
       A7                      D                      A7  
That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel

[Verse]
A7                       D7    D      D7  
Remembering you standing quiet in the rain
     A7                      D   
As I ran to your heart to be near
       A7                        D7               
And we kissed as the sky fell in holding you close
      A7                        D   
How I always held close in your fear
A7                      D    D7          D    
Remembering you running soft through the night
         A7                      D              
You were bigger and brighter and wider than snow
    A7                          D                  
You screamed at the makebelieve screamed at the sky
        A7                     D                       
And you finally found all your courage to let it all go

[Verse]
A           A7         D           
Remembering you fallen into my arms
A7                           D    
Crying for the death of your heart
         A7                     
You were stone white so delicate
D    D7         
Lost in the cold
         A7                    D   
You were always so lost in the dark
A7                  Dmaj7         
Remembering you how you used to be
A7                    A     
Slow drowned you were angels
D                           
So much more than everything
A7                          D                
Hold for the last time then slip away quietly
A                  D                 
Open my eyes but I never see anything


[Chorus]
   E                       D          
If only I'd thought of the right words
  E                          D    
I could have held on to your heart
E                          D          
If only I'd thought of the right words
  E                    D                        A  
I wouldn't be breaking apart all my pictures of you
        A7                  D              
Looking ■  so long at these pictures of you


[Verse]
      A7                    D    
But I never hold on to your heart
A7                      D               
Looking so long for the words to be true
A7                       D    
But always just breaking apart
               A7 
My pictures of you

There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
        Amaj7    C#m7       Bm7   Esus4
Than to feel you deep in my heart ■    
          A       C#m7                D               
There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
        A              E        Bm   
Than to never feel the breaking apart
Bm7            A  
My pictures of you
