           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

  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

   A
Remembering
             D
You running soft
through the night
          A
You were bigger
and brighter and
D
whiter 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

   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

   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

   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

 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

          A
There was nothing
in the world
       Bm
That I ever wanted
              A  
more Than to feel
                D
you deep in my heart
           A  
There was nothing in
the world That I
D
ever wanted more Than
    E
to never feel the
           D  
breaking apart All
                A
my pictures of you
