[Intro]
B5
C G Em Am x2
[Verse]
C G D/F#
Businessmen drink my blood
Em Am
Like the kids in art school said they would
C G D/F#
And I guess I'll just begin again
Em Am
You say can we still be friends
[Chorus]
C D C/B
If I was scared, I would
C D G D/F#
And if I was bored, you know I would
C D Em D
And if I was yours, but I'm not
[Verse]
C G D/F#
All the kids have always known
Em Am
That the emperor wears new clothes
C G D/F#
But to bow to down to them anyway
Em Am
Is better than to be alone
[Chorus]
C G D/F#
Now you're knocking at my door
Em Am
Saying please come out against the night
C G D/F#
But I would rather be alone
Em Am
Than pretend I feel alright
C G D/F#
If the businessmen drink my blood
Em Am
Like the kids in art school said they would
C G D/F#
Then I guess I'll just begin again
Em Am
You say can we still be friends
[Chorus]
C D C/B
If I was scared, I would
C D G D/F#
And if I was pure, you know I would
C D Em
And if I was yours, but I'm not
D/F# C
Now I'm ready to start
C D
If I was scared, I would
C D G D/F#
And if I was pure, you know I would
C D Em
And if I was yours, but I'm not
D/F# C Em
Now I'm ready to start
D/F# C Em
Now I'm ready to start
D/F# C Em
I would rather be wrong
D/F# C
Than live in the shadows of your song
Em
My mind is open wide
D/F# C Em
And now I'm ready to start
D/F# C
And now I'm ready to start
Em
My mind is open wide
D/F# C
And now I'm ready to start
Em
Your mind surely opened the door
D/F# C Em
To step out into the dark
D/F#
Now I'm ready
