Verse:

Bb       Eb      D         G  G7
Cut this picture into you and me,
Bb      Eb        D              G  G7
Burn it backwards kill this history,
Bb      Eb   D                G  G7
Make it over make it stay away,
   Bb               Eb          D                   [main riff]
Or hate'll sing the ending that love started to say...


Verse 2:
          Bb          Eb             D                 G    G7
There's a kid a floor below me saying brother can you spare?
Bb             Eb              D             G  G7     
Sunshine for a brother old man winter's in the air,
Bb             Eb    D              G  G7
Walked me up a story asking how you are
Bb             Eb             D                    [main riff]   
Told me not to worry you were just a shooting star...


Chorus 1:
       
      Eb     Bb    F   G#   C#     E
Sweet Adeline   
      Eb     Bb    F   G#   C#     E
Sweet Adeline
      Eb     Bb    F   G#   C#     E 
My clementine
      Eb      Bb   F   G#   B      D     [main riff]
Sweet Adeline


Verse 3:

      Bb              Eb              D                G   G7
Its a picture perfect evening and i'm staring down the sun,
Bb     Eb     D                 G  G7
Fully loaded, deaf and dumb and done,
Bb          Eb          D             G  G7
Waiting for sedation to disconnect my head,
Bb         Eb              D               G  G7
Or any situation where I'm better off than dead......
