(Each chord is one measure.)
(Asus9/G=3x2200; Bm7(4)=x20230 or x20200)
(Intro: strum Asus9.)
For [Asus9]you, [Asus9] I would tattoo [Asus9/G]me[Asus9/G]
With [Bm7(4)]lines crossing i[Bm7(4)]nto a hand and a h[D(9)]eart that would n[E]ever bleed
With the tw[Asus9]ilight [Asus9] and the h[Asus9/G]orse drawn on my a[Asus9/G]rm
[Bm7(4)]Standing for an add[Bm7(4)]iction, pr[D(9)]ay we go unh[E]armed.
[G] Here i[G]s my love and a[D]nger[D]
You see now,[C(9)] these are my [C(9)]gods, [D] these are my sc[D]ars
Here i[G]s, here i[G]s my love and a[D]nger[D]
Well, these a[C(9)]rms are bu[C(9)]rning, but they're open w[D]ide[D]
Some things, I hold too tightly
Some things, I'll never, I'll never touch
Oh, but I'm wearing down the stones in the river
And you see all my life, I've painted with anger's brush
Now, now could you lift me through my love and anger
You see now, these are your gods, these are my scars
Lift me through my love and anger
Oh, well, my arms are burning, but they're open wide
Oh, you precious kid
I have a motion, and it's just for you
I see a warrior, barefoot and dancing
Oh with tears of pain and beauty, and all of this is true
For you lift me through my love and anger
You see now, these are my gods, these are your scars
Lift me through my love and anger
Oh, well, my arms are burning but they're open wide.
[Asus9]Pointing out the gr[Asus9]aveyards, [Asus9/G]I will be the re[Asus9/G]aper
If [Bm7(4)]you will be the ke[Bm7(4)]eper of my he[E]art[E]
[Asus9]I will be the re[Asus9]aper if [Asus9/G]you will be the ke[Asus9/G]eper
Bm7(4) Bm7(4) E E Asus9.
You are the keeper of this heart, of my heart
