[Verse 1]
[fig 1] Am G
Why can't you just forget about algebra
B / B7 / B
it's all about you now
[fig 2] Am G
And all your talk of logic and formula
B
could never help you now
B Bsus2 B B7 B
(not any more)
[Chorus]
Em
'Cause you were always
A7
on the run
D Bm
from the darkness in your heart
Em
so you wear it
F#m B
on the outside of your chest
[Verse 2]
[fig 2] Am G
I have taken liberty
B / B7 / B
to tell your ghost to go
[fig 2] Am G
bribing them with sunlight and sympathy
B
they've promised not to show
B Bsus2 B B7 B
(for a while)
[Chorus]
Em
'Cause you were always
A7
the little boy
D Bm
who couldn't keep it to yourself
Em
so your heart
F#m B
is on the outside of your chest

Em
And your heart

the sum of you and everyone
Em A7
but still you're always on the run
D Bm
from the poison in your lungs
Em F#m
and your heart is on the outside
B
of your chest.
