[Verse 1]
[fig 1] Dm C
Why can't you just forget about algebra
E / E7 / E
it's all about you now
[fig 2] Dm C
And all your talk of logic and formula
E
could never help you now
E Esus2 E E7 E
(not any more)
[Chorus]
Am
'Cause you were always
D7
on the run
G Em
from the darkness in your heart
Am
so you wear it
Bm E
on the outside of your chest
[Verse 2]
[fig 2] Dm C
I have taken liberty
E / E7 / E
to tell your ghost to go
[fig 2] Dm C
bribing them with sunlight and sympathy
E
they've promised not to show
E Esus2 E E7 E
(for a while)
[Chorus]
Am
'Cause you were always
D7
the little boy
G Em
who couldn't keep it to yourself
Am
so your heart
Bm E
is on the outside of your chest

Am
And your heart

the sum of you and everyone
Am D7
but still you're always on the run
G Em
from the poison in your lungs
Am Bm
and your heart is on the outside
E
of your chest.
