A - E (x4)
[Verse 1]
A E
Give me a canvas to color in
A E
These nursery rhymes I sing
Bm D D A
They all just sound the same, Sullivan
A E
Hung on the walls of my home
A E Bm D D A
Those painted portraits bear some resemblance to you now, Sullivan
[Chorus]
F#m A F#m A
I never meant to go
F#m A F#m A
I never meant to go
A - E (x4)
[Verse 2]
A E A
Some punishment that never came
E Bm D D A
The bodies you invade all outlined on pavement now, Sullivan
A E
The radio's static hymns
A E
And choirs of angels sing
Bm D D A
You're the talk of the town now, Sullivan
[Chorus]
F#m A F#m A
I never meant to go
F#m A F#m A
I never meant to go
[Verse 3]
B F#m
'Cause it's all coming back now
B F#m
And you're all running out
B F#m
Yet you don't see how
B F#m
You still like to pretend
