Neutral Milk Hotel – Holland 1945 tab
Chords:
Holland, 1945 C G The only girl I've ever loved C G Was born with roses in her eyes C G But then they buried her alive D One evening 1945 C D G With just her sister at her side D C And only weeks before the guns D G All came and rained on everyone D C Now she's a little boy in Spain D G Playing pianos filled with flames D C On empty rings around the sun D C All sing to say my dream has come C G But now we must pick up every piece C G Of the life we used to love C G Just to keep ourselves C D At least enough to carry on C G And now we ride the circus wheel C G With your dark brother wrapped in white C G Says it was good to be alive D But now he rides a comet's flame C D G And won't be coming back again G D C The Earth looks better from a star D G That's right above from where you are D C He didn't mean to make you cry D G With sparks that ring and bullets fly D C On empty rings around your heart D C The world just screams and falls apart C G But now we must pick up every piece C G Of the life we used to love C Just to keep ourselves G D At least enough to carry on G C G And here's where your mother sleeps G C G D And here is the room where your brothers were born G C G Indentions in the sheets G C G D Where their bodies once moved but don't move anymore C G C G And it's so sad to see the world agree G C D That they'd rather see their faces fill with flies G C D G All when I'd want to keep white roses in their eyes
