Verse:
G G D D
This time of night I could call you up
Am Am
I'd get angry with athletic ease,
C C
break common laws in twos and threes
G G D D
And if I die clutching your photograph
Am Am
Don't call me boring,
C C
It's just 'cause I like you
G G
Oh take me on back...
D D
Take me on back and take me back
Am Am
To the place where I could feel your heart
C C
Is this the end or just the start of
G G D D
Something really, really beautiful
Am Am C C
Wrapped up and disguised as something really, really ugly

Cmaj7 Cmaj7
Won't you...

Chorus:
G G B B Em Em
Come by and see me, I'm a love letter away
C C G G
I'd break your name before I'd say,
B B B7 B7
I really love you, love you
C C G G
No, I don't care if you saw,
B B Em Em
I watched every inch of film
C C G G
Flash across your Roman features,
B B
And I loved it, loved it,
B7 B7 (single strum)
no I don't care if

Verse:
G G D D
You think I'm eager to shut your eyes, well
Am Am
I'm sorry; everybody knows you can't
C C
break me with your gutter prose
G G D D
Would you believe it, she sent me a letter,
Am Am
The ring, it nearly weighs her down,
C C
she's got another boy, oh boy
G G
Steady your ears, steady your ears,
D D
and read my lips
Am Am
Poetry is not a luxury,
C C
it's how I'll break this home
G G D D
And when I'm really ill,

won't you cradle me?
Am Am
Man is not a noble animal,
C C
but maybe woman is, remember,

Cmaj7 Cmaj7
I heard you...

Chorus:
G G
Inside your room, you said,
B B Em Em
"You've never really lived
C C G G
Until your back's against the wall."
B B B7 B7
Oh did you really mean it?
C C G G B B
No, I never break my gaze, if just to see
Em Em C C G G
this scar remain reflected in your eyes
B B B7 B7
I think it's time to go home

GUITAR SOLO:
G G D D Am Am C C G G D D Am Am C C

Verse:
G G
Oh, tell me your thoughts, tell me your
D D
thoughts on liberty,
Am Am
See there's a place where I sink to
C C
sleeping
G G
She said oh, my vote
D D
is as red as my blood
Am Am
Will you join me for another round?
C C
I haven't had the chance to speak yet

Cmaj7 Cmaj7
Godspeed...

Chorus:
G G B B
I break the law once every week
Em Em
to feel your touch,
C C G G
What's a book to you in bed,
B B B7 B7
do you feel better, older?
C C G G
This just makes me ill, your name is
B B Em Em
dripping from my pen
C C G G
Still you're not around to curse,
B B
I've gotta drop the gun now,
B7 B7 (single strum)
say I'm still under you...

Em Em C C Em Em C C Em Em C C Em Em C C

G G C C
Marianne, let the ghosts sleep tonight.
G G
Marianne, let the ghosts sleep,
C C
just shut your eyes and burn the past
G G C C
Marianne, let the ghosts sleep tonight.
G G
Marianne, let the ghosts sleep,
C C
just shut your eyes and burn the past
G G C C
Marianne, let the ghosts sleep tonight.
G G
Marianne, let the ghosts sleep,
C C
just shut your eyes and burn the past
G G C C
Marianne, let the ghosts sleep tonight.
G G
Marianne, let the ghosts sleep,
C C
just shut your eyes and burn the past away
