I'm as crazy as clown tonight
F                Em
a clown without a crown tonight
Am         Dm               G
a simple sack of wishes and bones.
C      Bb         F
I'm as useless as a memory
F                Em
the day before it came to me
Am         Dm               G
to save your time stitches and stones

Am                  Dm           G
to fill these empty castles with ghosts
C          Bb                  F
I've married devils to their history
F               Em
sood where you would bury me
Am                  Dm           G
through a time of statues and rows

[Bridge]
Am
now that the stars have frozen in their places
F             G          C
all that I've hold seems gone
Em                      Am         D
now that the stars have fallen from their faces
Dm             G
I will see you on
 
[Verse 3]
C      Bb         F
I'll never be your picture present
F                Em
but I hope you go the rose I sent
Am         Dm               G
to save your town of stitches and bones
C      Bb         F
I'm nothing more than a simple man
F                Em
born to be american
Am         Dm               G
out to draw these bridges and motes

Once in my life...
