[Verse]:
              Em*        Em Am           B
The sign said "Headshots"   and that was all,
  Em*          Em        Am               B
A picture of a boy and a number you could call,
Em*             Em      Am               B
Two eyes in the shade a mouth so sad and small,
     Em*               Em         Am              B
It's strange the way a shadow can fall across the wall,

             C         Em
And make the difference
         Aadd2   C
In what you see     Ah...

Intro x2

[Verse]:
            Em*   Em   Am             B
He's just a poster,    but he's everywhere,
  Em*          Em                     Am             B
A face under a street lamp ripped and hanging in the air,
         Em*   Em    Am              B
Turn the corner      and he's still there,
Em*              Em             Am         B
Watching all the people who are passing unaware,

           C        Em
Is there a judgement
         Aadd2     C
In what he sees?     Ah...


             Em^     Emadd7   Em7       A^
bridge: On a day As cold and gray As today

[Verse]:
              Dm          Dm* Gm         A
The sign says "Headshots"     it's all I see,
  Dm            Dm*        Gm        A
A boy becomes a picture of guilt and sympathy,
    Dm            Dm*   Gm      A
And so I think of you    in memory
       Dm           Dm*           Gm                    A
Of the days we were together, and I knew that you loved me

             Bb         Dm
That was the difference
        G       Bb  Dm
in what we see,
           G          Bb
But that's history...     Ah...
