[Verse 1]
C F
My favorite picture of you is the one where you're staring straight into the lens.
C F
It's just a polaroid shot someone took on the spot, no beginning, no end.
G E/G#
It's just a moment in time you can't have back,
Am D G
you never left but your bags were packed, just in case.
[Verse 2]
C F
My favorite picture of you is bent and faded and it's pinned to my wall.
C F
Oh, and you were so angry, it's hard to believe we were lovers at all.
G E/G#
There's a fire in your eyes, you've got your heart on your sleeve,
Am D G
a curse on your lips, but all I can see is beautiful.
[Verse 3]
C F
My favorite picture of you is the one where your wings are showing.
C F
Oh, and your arms are crossed, your fists are clenched, not gone but going.
G E/G#
Oh, a stand up angel who won't back down,
Am D G
nobody's fool, nobody's clown, you were smarter than that.
[Verse 4]
C F
My favorite picture of you is the one where it hasn't rained yet.
C F
Oh, and as I recall, that came a winter squall and we got soaking wet.
G E/G#
It's a thousand words in the blink of an eye,
Am D G
the camera loves you and so do I, click.
[Outro]
C F
My favorite picture of you is the one where you're staring, straight into the lens.
