D Asus4     G              Asus4/F#
  I put the groceries down on the front lawn

D Asus4               G                  Asus4/F#
  And think maybe the children just want recognition

D Asus4       G              Asus4/F#
  I wrote the fairytale on a midnight drive

D Asus4      G           Asus4/F#
  Wanting to know if I'm more than alive

Bm              E
  I torched the fields again

                G
  And killed an honest man

        A          A#dim
  Now I understand Mother Nature

D Asus4    G                  Asus4/F#
  Watch me running head-first into the thorns

D Asus4         G              Asus4/F#
  It's like the lights are off but somebody's home

[Chorus]

Bm            Em
  Unwrap that tourniquet 'round the sun

Bm           Em
  Turn those subtle reds into neon

G                E
  You'll see the difference when it's done

        D               DM7sus2/C#
  But I undеrstand your hesitation

[Verse 2]

D Asus4       G                 Asus4/F#
  Come take a walk with mе down billionaire's row

D Asus4     G                Asus4/F#
  Trying to keep our balance over zero

D Asus4           G                 Asus4/F#
  We'll write the fairytale for the rest of our lives

D Asus4        G          Asus4/F#
  Throwing the trash away one more time

[Chorus]

Bm        Em
  Holding on to love like a stone

Bm        Em
  Melting down today for tomorrow's

  G
  Covenant of the heart

  E
  You know it's turbulent from the start

        D               DM7sus2/C#
  And I understand it's not your nature

[Post-Chorus] Bm Em Dsus2 A

                 G     Em     Dsus2
  But you need a friend

D/F#            Bm     Em     Dsus2
  To take you home

A                 G     Em     Dsus2     D/F#
  You've got to begin again

[Bridge]

Dsus2                    DM7sus2/C#   Dsus2
  To open castle gates and let me go inside

                                DM7sus2/C#     Dsus2
  And taste the bitter tea that won't let you hide

                           DM7sus2/C#     Dsus2
  Then we can take away as much as we can steal

                                   DM7sus2/C#    Dsus2  Dsus2/E
  Break all the precious bones before the guards appear

Dsus2/F# Dsus2/G Dsus2/A DM7sus2/C#   Dsus2
  Before the fantasy is cast into the fire

                 Dsus2/A        DM7sus2/C#
  And strike the temple bell to resonate the

[Chorus]

  G
  Covenant of the heart

           E
  You know what comes right after the dark

        D               DM7sus2/C#
  But I understand your hesitation

[Outro] (repeat until the sunset) D Asus4 G Asus4/F#
