Intro 
G   D   G   D  
  
Verse
G                    D 
When did I lose my voice? 
G            D               Em7 
When did I make the choice to be 
           D             Em7   D    
living so easy in the quiet? 
G               D 
Too much of restless thinking 
G               D               Em7 
But they say time is everything 
         D                    Em7   D   
You came and opened up the silence 
 
Pre chorus
     Em7     G 
So I lie awake, 
        Cadd9                 D 
writing symphonies trapped inside me, 
       Em7   G            Cadd9  
But now I know, what you give to me, 
      D                     G   D   Em7   D    
I'm living with the poet's heart,   heart 
 
Chorus
              G                         D 
Now all the lights turned on and I'm never gonna stop 
         G                       D 
As the words come out, it's because you lit the spark 
        Em7                         D 
You're a priceless, timeless, precious work of art 
      Em7               
Though everywhere you are, 
       D                     G 
I'm living with the poet's heart.

G              D 
Whisper to me again 
G                  D                 Em7 
You fall from my ears straight to my pen, 
             D            Em7 
How did you see right through?

It's like you're always new.
