The other [Dm]night you said you
[C]might try to [Em]kill that thing I [F]love
It is invin[Dm]cible,
[C]it is encased [Em]in glass and stone
[F]You painted a song,
[Dm]you painted a song[C]
It started when [Em]I was young
and now it is [F]in my lung
You painted a song,

It started when I [Em]was young and now it is
[F]in my lung
