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.
