(ver. 1)
The Tallest Man On Earth
F F
F F Dm G  x2

       F                              F
I was more than just a coward, I was handsome too
        Dm                           G
I felt nothing when your flood came down
         F                                 F
Holding fines that made me wonder if the lights were wrong
         Dm                           G
With my hands that never touched no ground

           Dm            G
When your talent is in numbers
        Em                Dm 
Of the many times you've gone
         F                        G
I could lie I don't care about forgiving
                                         F
But sometimes it's just roses dying too young


F F Dm G  x2

             F                           F
And you're fencing up the hours in the fields of red
           Dm                      G
While you think I'm on a loveless stray
         F                           F
In the letters from the lovers in a land gone wrong
      Dm                     G
Explanations always written late

           Dm                G
When your talent curse the framing
        Em               Dm
Of the crying you heard sung
         F                              G
I could lie I don't care about what's missing
                                         F
But sometimes it's just roses dying too young

F F Dm G  x2

           Dm       Em              F          Dm
With your train of thought always passing here
          Dm      Em              F         Dm  
With its falling paint, and its broken gears
                   Dm     Em             F         Dm  
It's the damn revelation blues when you see the path
                       Dm               G         F
And you know you won't be the last, oh lord, oh lord

       F                              F
I was more than just a terror, I was crying too
         Dm                      G
But you showed me in the gusts between
        F                                F
That a wind is sometimes broken and its flying path
        Dm                  G
Has no meaning no a ghost within

           Dm          G
When your talent is in hiding
           Em               Dm
That your feeling's always wrong
   F                        G
I always want to bring you something
                                         F
But sometimes it's just roses dying too young

F F Dm G  x2

           Dm          G
When your talent is in hiding
           Em               Dm
That your feeling's always wrong
   F                        G
I always want to bring you something
                                        
But sometimes it's just roses dying too young

(on "young", play this to the end)
