When I'm Alone Carbon Leaf
Listen to song for strumming pattern and timing.
Capo 2
[G] I opened up the music [D]box
I wish you would have changed the [Em]locks
To keep me from replaying
[D]All the feelings I've been saving
[G] I did not keep them locked up i[D]nside
I did not take my steps in s[Em]tride
Thought you were bluffing, trampled on[D] you
Went from friends to nothing
[C] Radi[G]o turns to [D]gold
[C] And paves the [G]way to find my [D]home
When [C]I'[G]m a[D]lone
When [C]I'[G]m [D]alone
[G] [Em] [F#m] [G]
[G] Overeager and under[D]way
I risked it all, I had to [Em]say
What opened me up for the [D]beating
But the heart is for [G]bleeding
With scraps of songs I [D]paste along
The seams of my clumsy [Em]tongue
In hopes of creating the golden [D]notes
That might bring you back to me
[C] Radi[G]o turns to [D]gold
[C] And paves the [G]way to find my [D]home
When [C]I'[G]m a[D]lone
When [C]I'[G]m [D]alone
[G] [Em] [F#m] [C]
[G] [D] [Em] [D]
[G] Like phantoms on the highway
[D]After holiday, gritting their [Em]teeth
Racing to find a place for their [D]soul
Or at least a place... that's less fa[G]miliar
We offer up our heart be[D]fore
The heart's invited or asked [Em]for
Oh no, here I go my friend, I'm re[D]peating
But the heart is for bl[G]eeding...
And I've said all I can [D]say
I am retreating, on my w[Em]ay
Music box, play my song I'll [D]sing along
To that bitterly sweet [C]tone
When I'm alone...
