[Intro] D7sus4 Fadd2 G D7sus4 Fadd2 G [Verse 1]

D7sus4                   Fadd2
Look what I've done this picture I've painted

   G
It looks like my heart or what still remains

   D7sus4                    Fadd2
Convinced of the weight your interpretations

    G
Are not what I see I wish they could be

[Pre-Chorus]

 D7sus4 Fadd2         G
But I remember it much redder

 D7sus4 Fadd2         G
And I remember it much brighter

[Chorus]

E   D/F# G          A
Can you  stay for a while try to imagine this

E     D/F# G        A
Could you  be for a while I can't remember it

E     D/F# G          A
Could you  fall for a while 'cause I can't escape from this

[Interlude 1] D7sus4 Fadd2 G [Verse 2]

D7sus4             Fadd2
Try to explain the way that the frame

        G
Doesn't quite fit the image or surround the edge

   D7sus4            Fadd2
It stands on display what do you see

  G
Behold all the new grey what's become of the old me

[Pre-Chorus]

    D7sus4 Fadd2         G
'Cause I remember it much redder

 D7sus4 Fadd2         G
And I remember it much brighter

[Chorus]

E   D/F# G         A
Can you  stay for a while try to imagine this

E     D/F# G        A
Could you  be for a while I can't remember it

E     D/F# G          C            A
Could you  fall for a while 'cause I can't escape from this

[Bridge]

E   D/F# G
Can you stay for a while

Fmaj7    Am7      Fmaj7     Am7
Calling, crying, ashamed of what I am not

       Fmaj7    Am7     Fmaj7              Am7
Really failing, falling into this cage and I can't escape

Fmaj7     Am7
      No, I can't escape

C     Dm7
  No, I can't

[Interlude 2] D7sus4 Fadd2 G D7sus4 Fadd2 G [Verse 3]

   D7sus4              Fadd2
So look what I've done picture I've painted

G
Doesn't quite fit or surround the edge

 D7sus4 Fadd2         G
But I remember it much redder

[Chorus]

E  D/F#  G  A
              Try to imagine this

E     D/F# G        A
Could you  be for a while 'cause I can't remember it

E     D/F# G          A
Could you  fall for a while I can't escape from this

E   D/F# G          C            A
Can you  stay for a while 'cause I can't escape

[Ending]

E     D/F# G        Fmaj7

    For a while

Am7       Fmaj7
    For a while

Am7       C
    For a while

I can't, I can't escape

Can you stay for a while

Could you be for a while

No, I can't, I can't escape

Fmaj7   Am7
Can you stay for a while

Fmaj7     Am7
Could you be for a while
