Shattered Image

A                 D          A
I used to sit for hours as a kid
    D         A            E     
And dangle my feet from an old 
   A
flat bridge
                     D       A
Seeing myself in the water below
D          A              E     
Shatter my image with the rocks 
    A
I'd throw
G                                 
Shatter my image with the rocks 
  A
I'd throw

[Chorus]
A                      D         A
A long time gone and a long time ago
       D            A              
When I shattered my image with the 
E          A
rocks I'd throw
A                      D          
The world is cruel and people are 
A
cold
         D          A              
Now they shatter my image with the 
E          A
rocks they throw
G                                 
Shatter my image with the rocks 
   A
they throw


[Verse]
A                           D    
I'm far from perfect, but I ain't
     A
 all bad
       D        A            E   
And it hurts me more than it 
     A
makes me mad
A                           D    
We all do things that we don't 
     A
want told

       D        A            
And we all throw stones that we 
E        A
shouldn't throw
G                             
You shattered my image with the 
            A
rocks you throw


[Chorus]
A                      D         A
A long time gone and a long time ago
       D            A              
When I shattered my image with the 
E          A
rocks I'd throw
A                      D          
The world is cruel and people are 
A
cold
         D          A              
Now they shatter my image with the 
E          A
rocks they throw
G                                 
Shatter my image with the rocks 
   A
they throw


[Verse]
A                           D    
If you live in a glass house 
     A
don't throw stones
       D        A            E   
Don't shatter my image 'til you 
     A
look at your own
A                           D
Look at your reflection in your 
         A
house of glass
       D        A            E   
Don't open my closet if your 
     A
own's full of trash
G                                 
Stay out of my closet if your 
       A
own's full of trash


[Chorus]
A                      D         A
A long time gone and a long time ago
       D            A              
When I shattered my image with the 
E          A
rocks I'd throw
A                      D          
The world is cruel and people are 
A
cold
         D          A              
Now they shatter my image with the 
E          A
rocks they throw
G                                 
Shatter my image with the rocks 
   A
they throw


[Otro]
A
Shatter my image with the rocks you 
throw
      G          D            
Don't shatter my image with the 
            A
rocks you throw
