IntroGmDmCVerse 1GmDm
Right, right at the start
C
You put this into words
How you think we should proceed, yeah
GmDm
You wanted me alone
C
With the pictures that you've seen of where you haven't been but where you want to go
Pre-Chorus 1GmDm
Ask the leaf and ask the bird
C
Not to sing or speak a word, we are not fictitious characters but we don't belong to this world
ChorusDmC
The book, the book of your heart
GmF
One tiny mark, an entry
Dm
In the book of your heart
C
It's written on skin
Gm
To even be in
F
The book of your heart
InstrumentalGmDmCVerse 2GmDm
You can change your name,
C
Or even who you are, that's the beauty of the scar, that is the contract of the heart
Pre-Chorus 2GmDm
This is our wedding day
C
This is the promise that we'll stay through the long descriptive passages where we don't know what to say
ChorusDmC
The book, the book of your heart
GmF
One tiny mark, an entry
Dm
In the book of your heart
C
It's written on skin
Gm
To even be in
F
The book of your heart
