1/2 Step Down
These chords are based of Aaron Lewis' version of the song. I have removed the power chord intro, because it sounds identicle to open chords, and transitions better into the actual song.

Intro: E A (x4)
E A E A
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay.
E A E A
were laid spread out before me as her body once did
E A E A
All five horizons revolved around her soul As the earth to the sun
E A E E
Now the air I tasted and breathed Has taken a turn
C E
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
C E
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
D
And now my bitter hands
C
shade beneath the clouds
E
Of what was everything?
D
Oh, the pictures seared
C
all been washed in black
E A
Tattooed everything...
E A E A
...I take a walk outside, I'm surrounded by some kids at play
E A E E
..I can feel their laughter, So why do I sear?
C E
and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
C E
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning, How quick the sun can, drop away
D
And now my bitter hands
C
cradle broken glass
E
Of what was everything
D
All the pictures seared
C
all been washed in black,
E
tattooed everything...
D
All the love gone bad
C
Turned my world to black
D C E D A
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be yeah...
E D A
Uh huh...uh huh...ooh...
E D
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be the sun
A E D A
In somebody else's sky, but why Why, why can't it be
E D A
can't it be miiiineeeeee...
