[D][C][C]

[Verse 1]
[Em]I should have known better
[A]To see what I could see[G]
My black [C]shroud
Holding down my [D]feelings
A pillar for my ene[C]mies
[Em]I should have wrote a letter
[A]And grieve what I happen to gri[G]eve
My black [C]shroud
I never trust my [D]feelings
I waited for the reme[C]dy

[Pre-chorus 1]
[Am]When I was three[C], three maybe four[D]
She left us at that [C]video [D]store

[Verse 2]
[Em]I'm light as a feather
[A]I'm bright as the Oregon bre[G]eze
My black [C]shroud
Frightened by my [D]feelings
I only wanna be a re[C]lief
[Em]No, I'm not a go-getter
[A]The demon had a spell on me[G]
My black [C]shroud
Captain of my [D]feelings
The only thing I wanna be[C]lieve

[Pre-chorus 2]
[Am]When I was three[C], and free to explor[D]e
I saw her face on the [C]back of the [D]door

[Bridge 1]
[G]I should have known better
[C]Nothing can be cha[D]nged
The past is still the [G]past
The [D]bridge to nowhere
[Em]I should have wrote a letter
(I [C]should have wrote a [D]letter)
Explaining what I [Em]feel, that [D]empty feeling

[Bridge 2]
[G]Don't back dow[C]n, concentrate on see[D]ing
The breakers in the [G]bar,
the [D]neighbor's greeting
[Em]My brother had a daughter
(my [C]brother had a [D]daughter)
The beauty that she [Em]brings, [D]illumination

[Bridge 3]
[G]Don't back dow[C]n, there is nothing lef[D]t
The breakers in the [G]bar,
no [D]reason to live
[Em]I'm a fool in the fetter
(I'm a [C]fool in the [D]fetter)
Rose of Aaron's [Em]beard,
where [D]you can reach me

[Bridge 4]
[G]Don't back dow[C]n, nothing can be cha[D]nged
Cantilever [G]bridge, the [D]drunken sailor
[Em]My brother had a daughter
(my [C]brother had a [D]daughter)
The beauty that she [Em]brings, [D]illumination
[C](illumination) [D]Illumination
