[Verse 1]
A Bm
Tryin' hard to recognise
F#m E F#m E A
Some clear motive inside of me
A Bm
A creature that would horrify
F#m E F#m E A
Any child that I used to be
[Bridge]
Bm F#m D
Oh, give no faith to show
Bm F#m E A
Started to smile so I showed my teeth
Bm F#m D
No more than flesh and bone
F#m E
Doin' so much just to watch someone bleed
[Chorus]
A E A E F#m G#m A
But I love the very blood of you
A E A E F#m G#m A
It keeps its heat in spite of you
D C#m
Oh, the heart that beats
E D
To keep you here with me always
[Verse 2]
A Bm
Tryin' hard, I nearly find
F#m E F#m E A
Innocence in spite of me
A Bm
Whoa, creature that would terrify
F#m E F#m E A
Any child left inside of me
[Bridge]
Bm F#m D
Oh, that's a cold insight
Bm F#m E A
Nothin' above us and nothin' below
Bm F#m D
Ahh, but you might be right
F#m E
If there is no heaven and there is no soul
[Chorus]
A E A E F#m G#m A
I'll just love the very blood of you
A E A E F#m G#m A
That keeps its heat in spite of you
D C#m
Oh, the heart that beats
E D
To keep you here with me always

To keep you here with me always

Leaks and squeeks you black and blue

Oh, the heart that beats
E D
