[fig 1] Fm D#
Why can't you just forget about algebra

G Gsus2 G G7 G
(not any more)
[Chorus]

'Cause you were always

on the run

from the darkness in your heart

so you wear it

on the outside of your chest
[Verse 2]
[fig 2] Fm D#
I have taken liberty
G / G7 / G
to tell your ghost to go

(for a while)
[Chorus]

'Cause you were always

Cm Dm
and your heart is on the outside

of your chest.
