Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

x2

Businessmen drink my blood

 Like the kids in art school said they would

 And I guess I'll just begin again

You say can we still be friends

Chorus

If I was scared, I would

And if I was bored, you know I would

And if I was yours, but I'm not

All the kids have always known

 That the emperor wears new clothes

 But to bow to down to them anyway

 Is better than to be alone

Chorus

Now you're knocking at my door

 Saying please come out against the night

 But I would rather be alone

Than pretend I feel alright

 If the businessmen drink my blood

 Like the kids in art school said they would

 Then I guess I'll just begin again

You say can we still be friends

Chorus

If I was scared, I would

And if I was pure, you know I would

And if I was yours, but I'm not

Now I'm ready to start

If I was scared, I would

And if I was pure, you know I would

And if I was yours, but I'm not

Now I'm ready to start

Now I'm ready to start

I would rather be wrong

 Than live in the shadows of your song

 My mind is open wide

 And now I'm ready to start

 And now I'm ready to start

 My mind is open wide

 And now I'm ready to start

 Your mind surely opened the door

 To step out into the dark

Now I'm ready
