🎸 Intro: A F#m E D (x2) 🎸 Verse 1: A F#m Ellie got under my skin E D With her strawberry hair flowing in the wind A F#m She gave me a flannel jacket to wear E D When the world's just too cold to bear F#m A C#m B F#m A But she gave everything, drained out all that's inside C#m B And she cried on the floor feeling empty F#m A Stayed in the shadows and she'd tear her own skin C#m B And she won't let me know where she's been
🎸 Chorus: A F#m E F#m E I stare at the flicker of the candle burning slowly in the dark A F#m Beside was a picture of you E D With a smile on your face that I barely recognize 🎸 Verse 2: A F#m Walking on eggshells around you E D Tread lightly, don't fly too close to the sun A F#m But the world's so grim and dark, so ghastly E D I'd clawed myself out to keep afloat A F#m I thought you'd shed me some light E D But I slipped away and now I'm gone 🎸 Chorus: A F#m E F#m E I stare at the flicker of the candle burning slowly in the dark A F#m Beside was a picture of you E D With a smile on your face that I barely recognize A F#m E D Oh oh oh oh A F#m E D Oh oh oh oh 🎸 Bridge: F#m A Walking 'round and 'round and C#m B You can't see me but all I see is you 🎸 Outro: A F#m Ellie got under my skin E D With her strawberry hair flowing in the wind A F#m E D She gave me a flannel jacket to wear but the world's just too cold for her to bear F#m A E But she gave everything, drained out all that's inside B And she died
