Intro - D then Em then G

                            
I drew a picture of you
                            
You and your anchor tattoo
                            
And saw the face that I knew
                   /  
Covered in shame

You drew a bird that was here
A kind of sweet chanticleer
But with a terrible fear
That the cage couldn t tame

                                                  
That s how I knew this story would break my heart
            
When you wrote it
                                                  
That s how I knew this story would break my heart

So, like a ghost in the snow
I m getting ready to go
Cause baby, that s all I know –
How to open the door
And though the exit is crude
It saves me coming unglued
For when you re not in the mood
For the gloves and the canvas floor

That s how I knew this story would break my heart
When you wrote it
That s how I knew this story would break my heart

That s how I knew this story would break my heart
When you wrote it
That s how I knew this story would break my heart
