Repeat through verses Chords: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Verse 1: w/intro riff (Chords for 2nd guitar)
Images on the sidewalk speak of dream's decent
1 2 1 2 5 2
Washed away by storms to graves of cynical lament
1 2 1 2 5 2
Dirty canvases to call my own
1 2 1 2 7 8 9
Protest limericks carved by the old pay phone
Chorus:
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
In your picture book I'm trying hard to see
1 2 3 4 1 2 3
Turning endless pages of this tragedy
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
Sculpting every move you compose a symphony
1 2 3 4 5 6 9 2
You plead to everyone, "see the art in me"
(2) 6 9 2
"see the art in me" "see the art in me"
Verse 2:
Broken stained-glass windows, the fragments ramble on
Tales of broken souls, an eternity's been won
As critics scorn the thoughts and works of mortal man
My eyes are drawn to you in awe once again
In your picture book I'm trying hard to see
Turning endless pages of this tragedy
Sculpting every move you compose a symphony
You plead to everyone, "see the art in me"
Refrain: 1 9 2 (8x)
