Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Dm][F][G][Am][F][G][Em]
[Am][Dm][F][G][Am][G][Em][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[Am]I[Em][G][Dm][D][Am][D][F]
[Am][Em][C][G][Dm][Am][Dm]
[F]was[G] bo[C]rn [D]into this terror,[Dm] unsu[Bb]specting[D] as I was
[C]Jus[D]t a lifeward child,
[Bb]not [D]aware of a[C]ll the miser[D]y
No idea [Bb]of the b[D]lame this world
[C]already had to [D]shoulder
As an untold [Bb]crime [D]came down
[C]and sealed my [Am]faith
No [F]premon[G]ition [Am]of the
[F]doom [Dm]im pe[D]nding[Am]
Not [F]knowing [G]of [Am]the strife
for [D]life [C]to [Am]come
Soon [F]gone [G]were the [Am]years
of my [F]lev[Dm]ity[Am]
El[F]even sum[G]mers [Am]before
darkness fell
[D][C]

[Verse 2]
[Am]
Keep this [Em]paper crane,
[G]one of a tho[D]usand[Am]
There never [D]was a guilt
to [F]burden [C]myself
[Am]My hopeless cry,
[Em]it w[G]ent un[C]heard[D][Am]
And unlike [D]me, you knew there [F]were
no gods to save [C]me[D][Bb][D]
You knew there were no
[C]gods [D]to save me
[Bb][D][C]

[Verse 3]
[D]Still no idea of [Bb]the blame[D] this world
[C]would have to [D]shoulder
As for one [Bb]last [D]time I bid [C]the
cranes [Am]farewell
[F]Passing [G]by like [Am]the timid ghosts
[F]Sum[D]mon[Am]ers [F]of
[G]a placid w[C]orld[Am]
[Dm]Never [C]reaching me[Am]
[F]Masters [G]of a [Am]peaceful life
[F]Moving [D]on to [Am]stainless [F]shores[G]
Nev[Am]er te[D]aching m[C]e[G][C]
[Am]

[Verse 4]
Now I lay my aching hands to [F]rest[G]
As I bid my crane [Em]farewell[C][Am][Dm][F]
And I wish for [G]an echo of my [Am]forlorn life
[G]to be [Em]your melody
[Am]

[Verse 5]
See this [Em]paper crane,
[G]one of [C]a tho[D]usan[Am]d
There never [D]was a guilt to
[F]burden mys[C]elf
[Am]My hopeless cry,[Em]
[C]it [G]wen[C]t unh[D]eard[Am]
And unlike [D]me you knew,
[Dm]there [F]were no gods to [C]save [G]me
All hope in [Bb]vain, [F]you just mur[C]dered
[F]them[G#][Eb][C][G]
Banished [Bb]the crane[F][C][F]
[G#]from the meadows of this[Cm] life
