Meg & Dia - Masterpiece
Something Real, 2006
Doghouse Records
This is what I would assume the song sounds like.
Standard tuning (EADGBE)
Capo: 4
Original song would be E,B,C#m,A, and G#m chords without the capo.
I made it somewhat easier by adding the capo on 4 and using C,G,Am,F, and Em chords instead.
Enjoy.
Intro:
Verse 1:
Too bad you knew me.
When I wasn't ready.
I wasn't ready.
Did I say, "Come and get me?"
Too bad I held on.
When you tried to tell me. This was wrong.
Well, is this wrong?
Bridge 1:
I am no masterpiece where innocence is painted green.
Isn't it strange to think that you created all of me?
Chorus:
Done by the hands of a broken artist.
You painted black where my naked heart is.
I finally know what wrong is.
Now I finally know that you bleed for nothing.
Carved like a stone with your hands still shaking.
On display through a soul still breaking.
Aren't you proud you're the one that made me?
Aren't you proud you're the one that made me?
Verse 2:
You can't erase these.
Lines you can't save me.
You can't display me.
You know what dismay means.
I can't even try to.
Remember what I knew.
Before I became your.
Model to claim no.
Bridge 2:
I am no masterpiece.
So strange that you made all of me.
(Chorus)
Verse 3:
I grew tired.
You expired.
You finished me.
Now that I'm all that you planned.
Well tell me what do you think?
(Chorus)
Too bad you knew me.
I wasn't ready.
(hold)
I am no masterpiece at all...
