Verse:

Am            D
I should have known better
          C
To see what I could see
     Fmaj7/A
My black shroud
         G/B
Holding down my feelings
          F6
A pillar for my enemies

Am            D
I should have wrote a letter
               C
And grieve what I happen to grieve
     Fmaj7/A
My black shroud
         G/B
I never trust my feelings
           F6
I waited for the remedy


Chorus:

Dm      F/C         G/B
When I was three, three maybe four
          F6      (F/A - G/B) C
She left us at that video store

Be my rest, be my fantasy
   G      F6
Be my rest, be my fantasy


Verse:

Am            D
I'm light as a feather
             C
I'm bright as the Oregon breeze
     Fmaj7/A
My black shroud
         G/B
Frightened by my feelings
          F6
I only want to be a relief

Am            D
No, I'm not a go-getter
             C
The demon had a spell on me
     Fmaj7/A
My black shroud
        G/B
Captain of my feelings
             F6
The only thing I want to believe


Chorus:

Dm      F/C         G/B
When I was three, three maybe four
          F6      (F/A - G/B) C
She left us at that video store

Be my rest, be my fantasy

Verse:

C            Fmaj7/C
I should have known better

Nothing can be changed
           C
The past is still the past
  G6/B       Fmaj/A
The bridge to nowhere
            Fmaj7    G6
I should've wrote a letter
         C     G6/B
Explaining what I feel, that empty feeling


C     Fmaj7/C
Don't back down,
        G6/B
concentrate on seeing
          C
The breakers in the bar
  G6/B        Fmaj/A
the neighbor's greeting
            Fmaj7    G6
My brother had a daughter
         C     G6/B
The beauty that she brings, illumination


C      Fmaj7/C
Don't back down,
         G6/B
there is nothing left
          C
The breakers in the bar,
  G6/B       Fmaj/A
no reason to live
            Fmaj7    G6
I'm a fool in the fetter
         C     G6/B
Rose of Aaron's beard, where you can reach me


C     Fmaj7/C
Don't back down:
        G6/B
nothing can be changed
      C
Cantilever bridge,
  G6/B       Fmaj/A
the drunken sailor
          Fmaj7    G6
My brother had a daughter
           C    G6/B    Fmaj7 G6
The beauty that she brings, illumination,   illumination
