[A#] [C#]
[C#m] [A#] [B]
[B] I found [A] this photograph
[F#m] [A] underneath the picture glass.
[C#m] [F#] In her [A] face, a black and white, [F#m] beautiful, [A] [A] haunting [C#m] sight.
[B] Looked into [A] an angel's [F#] smile, [A] captivated all the while.
[C#m] [B] From the [A] handful she wore, I'll place her in between.
[E] Was she willing [B] when she sat?
[F#m] Oh, so pretty [D] photograph, [E] save her [B] flowerling and hair.
[F#m] Days to come, [D] days to share, [E] this [D] smile for the [A]
camera.
[F#m] How did she [D] know?
[E] A moment [D] could be lost [A] forever, [F#m] forever, [E] forevermore.
[C#m] I [A] found this photograph, the stats between [F#] the [A] old joke's [C#m] wall.
In a [A] place where time is lost, lost behind [F#m] when all things fall.
[C#m] Broken [A] books and calendars, letters, script, [F#] [A] careful [C#m] hand.
[A] Music to a stand, tune by, some forgotten, [C#] [A] big, bright span.
[E] From the threshold [B] once seen, [F#m] a vow of [D] braveness sent to me.
[E] The [B] television's just dream, [F#m]
[D] radio's [E] silkscreen.
This smile [D] for the [F#m] camera.
How did she know?
[E] A moment could be [D] lost forever, [F#m]
[E] forever, forevermore.

[C#m] [B]
[C#m] Was [B]
[G#] [B]
[E] her childhood [B] filled with crime?
[F#m] Stolen [D] books and passing crimes.
[E] Was she [B] innocent or blind [F#m] to the cruelty [D] of her time?
[E] Was she fearful [D] in her [F#m] day?
Was she hopeful, [D] did she pray?
[E] Were there [D] skeletons
[A] inside?
[F#m] Found the secrets sworn [A] to [E] hide.
Did she feel [D] the heat that [F#m] stirred?
Call from graves, [D] waiting girls.
[E] Was she tempted [D] to [A] pretend?
[F#m] Love and laughter [E] until the end.
