Intro:  Dm7, F2, Gsus 

Dm7                     F2
Look what I've done, this picture I've painted, 
Gsus
It looks like my heart or what still remains 
Dm7                         F2                  Gsus
Convinced of the wieght your interpretations are not what I see 

I wish they could be, but... 
Dm7   F           G
I remember it was much redder, and... 
Dm7   F           G
I remember it was much brighter 
E F#m7   G         A
Can you stay for a while? 
Asus 
Try to imagine this 
E   F#m7   G       Asus
Could you be for a while? 
                   E    F#m7    G       Asus
I can't remember it Could you fall for a while, 'cause I can't escape from 
this 

Dm7                F2              G
Try to explain the way the fame doesn't quite fit the image 
                        Dm7
Or surrounded the edge It stands on display 
F2
What do you see? 
Gsus
Behold all the new gray. 
What's become of the old me? 

Dm7      F            G
'Cause I remember it much redder and... 
Dm7     F          G
I remember it much brighter 
E  F#m7   G       A
Can you stay for a while 
                   E   F#m7   G      A
Try to imagine this could you be for a while? 

'Cause I can't remember it? 
E F#m7    G         C            A
Could you fall for a while, 'cause I can't escape from this? 
E F#m7    G
Can you stay for a while? 

Fmaj7     Am7      Fmaj7   Am7          Fmaj7          Am7
Calling, crying ashamed of what I am not really falling, falling... 
Fmaj7              Am7
Into this cage, and I can't escape 
C2     Dm7
No, I can't escape, No I can't 


Dm7 F  G 

Dm7
So look what I've done 
F2                 Gsus
Picture I've painted doesn't quite fit or surround the edge 
Dm7     F         G
But I remember it much redder 

C/G  E  F#m7  G  Gmaj7  A 

                     E   F#m7   G         Asus
Try to imagine this, Could you be for a while? 

'Cause I can't remember it 
E F#m7   G       Asus
Could you fall for a while 

And I can't escape from this 
E F#m7   G         C2        A
Can you stay for a while?  I can't escape... 
E F#m7    G       Fmaj7     Am7   C2     Dm7
Could you be for a while, for a while, for a while 
I can't, I can't 

Fmaj7, Am, Fmaj7
