Bm      A             Dm     F    
..I was raised from a broken seed, 
C        G        F#m  E      Bm
..I grew up to be an unwanted weed..
     A          Dm     F        
Ever faster the time exceeds me, 
C        G       F#m       E      Bm
..Little harder again to remember you..
       A             Dm             F        C      G
Held a torch for you when lightning struck me once again,
       F#m          E   
Hope I died for the last time
Bm     A            Dm            F        
..Only one I have a thing greater than you, 
C        G            F#m E     Bm
..Little light on the sky every night..
        A          Dm            F               
Morning dew on the field where I met you, 
C       G        F#m            E         
..I was frozen a year, couldn't get through..
Bm      A           Dm          F        
..Got a sign, not a scar, on my shoulder, 
C      G             F#m     E       Bm
..I am not quite the man you take me for..
        A             Dm           F     
Fell in love with the weakness within me, 
C          G            F#m      E 
..Tried to force me the ring and own me
Bm          A                Dm           F        
..Guess you found what you'd think would oblige me;
C        G          F#m      E
..Little version of me to consume you..

C#m           B                 E
..I'd give my everything to you,
                       F#              C#m
Follow you through the garden of oblivion..
         B                        E           
If only I could tell you everything,
                         F#
The little things you'll never dare to ask me..

C#m  
Do you really know me? 
             B
I might be a God..
                                    E                               
Show me that you care and have a cry..
( E )              
How do you see me (as the one)?
F#                              C#m
Can you see my blood when I'm bleeding?
( C#m )                          
How can you love this exile?
B                         E
And how could I desire you..
                   F#                Gm
When my pain is my pain and yours is too?

Bb                     Dm    F                      Gm   
..On this deadwinter's night, darkness becomes this child..
Bb                        Dm   F                  Bm
..Bless this night with a tear, for I have none I fear..

      A          Dm           F       
Seven lives of a man passed before me
C       G       F#m           E         Bm
..Seven graves; one for every love I've had..
     A           Dm        F         C           
Only once I have broken my so called heart, 
     G           F#m     E       Bm
Only one made me see why they cry..
       A            Dm        F       C
Will I learn how to be one of you someday?
       G              F#m         E         
Will I still feel the eyes that behold me?
Bm       A             Dm             F
..Will I hear what you think when you see me?
C         G        F#m         E        C#m
..Will it tear me apart if you feel for me?

            B                 
I'd give my everything to you,
E                        F#              C#m
..Follow you through the garden of oblivion..
         B                        E             
If only I could tell you everything,
                         F#
The little things you'll never dare to ask me..

C#m  
Do you really know me? 
             B
I might be a God..
                                    E                               
Show me that you care and have a cry..
( E )              
How do you see me (as the one)?
F#                              C#m
Can you see my blood when I'm bleeding?
( C#m )                          
How can you love this exile?
B                         E
And how could I desire you..
                   F#                Gm
When my pain is my pain and yours is too?

Bb                     Dm    F                      Gm   
..On this deadwinter's night, darkness becomes this child..
Bb                        Dm   F                  Bb
..Bless this night with a tear, for I have none I fear..

( Bb )            G
Little broken.. Always been..
  Dm            G 
A part of you belongs to me..
Bb             Gm 
You were never mine to love, but 
Dm                   C4      C Gm C4 C Dm
This all has made it easy for me..
Bb                G
Burning feathers; not an angel..
Dm               G                          
Heaven's closed, Hell's sold out..
     Bb                 Gm
So I walk on the earth, behind the curtains
Dm                    C4 C        Gm          C4 C   Dm        
Hidden from everyone, until I find a new life to ruin  a - gain..
