I heard it said that words are deadly things?
A# A#m F C7
I was surprised to find myself alive and breathing
F A7 Dm
I said I know it's tough but I'm growing up; and your love, it just ain't
A#m
good enough,
F Dm A# C7 F
so I'm taking back my heart for me.

I was lured into every word you speak.
A# A#m F C7
Yeah when I was young you could tie my tongue and weaken my knees,

But the lines been drawn and I'm moving on. Another girl will come
F Dm A# C7 F F7
along, so I'm taking back my heart for me.
A# C7 F
This is the end of the road this is where we part, you can keep all your

memories but I'm taking my heart.
A# C7 F F7
Turns out being away is a wonderful way to be.
A# C7 F F7
I'm going back to the earth, back to open doors, back to beach boys records
A#m
and minor 4's
F Dm A# C7 F
Cause I'm taking back my heart for me.
