Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
A part of me own these grounds,
but they're no longer mine.
I have to find a way home.
And you - you were all that I got;
you kept me hanging on.
I have to make it on my own now.
Oh, the night is young,
and a hollow tooth
was all it took.
And I tie the laces 'round my wrist;
for the last time, meet me at the same place.
Oh, if tomorrow comes,
I wanna waste my love
on you like a pearl merchant.
I'm ready to learn what it takes to burn.
I'm gonna let you show me
what it means to breathe fire.
I never knew what I want:
I let my body talk.
I was in a deep sleep.
And I tie the laces 'round my wrist;
for the last time, meet me at the same place.
Oh, if tomorrow comes,
I wanna waste my love
on you like a pearl merchant.
I'm ready to learn what it takes to burn.
I'm gonna let you show me
what it means to breathe fire.
I kept on coming back -
I couldn't help myself.
Soft flashes ahead of me
color my footsteps blue and milk.
Can you really trust it?
Oh, if tomorrow comes,
I wanna waste my love
on you like a pearl merchant.
I'm ready to learn what it takes to burn.
I'm gonna let you show me
what it means to breathe fire.
Ooh, if tomorrow comes,
I wanna waste my love
on you like a pearl merchant.
I'm ready - I'm ready to learn.
I'm ready to learn.
