[Intro]
Gm F C/G Cadd9 C Gm
Gm
Right
F
Right at the start
C/G
You put this into words
Cadd9 C/G
How you think we should proceed
Yeah
Gm Dm
You wanted me alone
C/G
With the pictures that you’ve seen
Cadd9 C/G
Of where you haven’t been
But where you want to go
Gm Dm
Ask the leaf and ask the bird
C/G
Not to sing or speak a word
Cadd9 C/G
We are not fictitious characters
We don’t belong to this world
Dm
The book
C Gm
The book of your heart
F Am
One tiny mark, an entry
Dm C/G
In the book of your heart
Gm
It’s written on skin
F
To even be in
Am Gm
The book of your heart
[Instrumental]
Am Gm Am F Am Gm F C
Gm Dm
You can change your name
C/G
Or even who you are
Cadd9 C/G
That’s the beauty of the scar
Cadd9 C/G
That is the contract of the heart
Gm Dm
This is our wedding day
C/G
This is the promise that we’ll stay
Through long descriptive passages
Where we don’t know what to say
Dm
The book
C/G Gm
The book of your heart
F Am
One tiny mark, an entry
Dm C/G
In the book of your heart
Gm
It’s written on skin
F
To even be in
Am
The book of your heart

Babe, I don’t belong to you
C G
Love is what we choose to do
Bb G
Babe, you don’t belong to me
A Dm
It’s not that easy
