A C#7 F#m
I heard it said that words are deadly things?
D Dm A E7
I was surprised to find myself alive and breathing
A C#7 F#m
I said I know it's tough but I'm growing up; and your love, it just ain't
Dm
good enough,
A F#m D E7 A
so I'm taking back my heart for me.
A C#7 F#m
I was lured into every word you speak.
D Dm A E7
Yeah when I was young you could tie my tongue and weaken my knees,
A C#7 F#m Dm
But the lines been drawn and I'm moving on. Another girl will come
A F#m D E7 A A7
along, so I'm taking back my heart for me.
D E7 A
This is the end of the road this is where we part, you can keep all your
F#m
memories but I'm taking my heart.
D E7 A A7
Turns out being away is a wonderful way to be.
D E7 A A7
I'm going back to the earth, back to open doors, back to beach boys records
Dm
and minor 4's
A F#m D E7 A
Cause I'm taking back my heart for me.
A C#7 F#m A7
I heard it said that words are deadly things?
D Dm A E7
I was surprised to find myself alive and breathing
A C#7 F#m
I said I know it's tough but I'm growing up; and your love,
Dm
it just ain't good enough,
A F#m D
so I'm taking back my heart
A F#m D
I'm taking back my heart
A F#m D Dm E7 A A7
I said I'm taking back my heart for me.
