Any Other Heart (acoustic)

• Em

              Em 
And this is my last remaining filter 
      C 
On my last remaining words. 
                 Gm                              D 
It's leaving the taste of something bitter on my tongue. 
              Em 
I'm leaving a ladder full of reasons 
             C 
Along with a line that starts to blur 
       Gm                                D 
Into a page that says you faded away too young. 


              C                D         Em 
'Cause you're leaving something short of innocent. 
           C             D                   Gm  A 
Em  D 
I'm still thinking of the times we should've spent. 
          Gm            D                 Gm      A 
       Em 
It's as if this form of treason crawled up deep inside your head. 
             C                                D hold 
And left you notes on how to keep your insides dead. 


holding              C 
If I had any other heart, 
             Gm          D 
If any other piece spoke louder. 
                   C 
If I had any other hands, 
                    Gm 
I wouldn't need the boys 
            Em              D 
To tell the world about the coward that re- 
C       Gm 
Fuses to stand, 
             Em            D 
And claim no blood on your hands. 
          C                      D 
If I had any other heart beside my own, 

We might've left you cold. 

Em  Gm  D  D 
Em  C  D  D 

             Em 
I'm handed a book about instructions 
        C 
On when I should know to go. 
               Gm 
And tracing my fingers down the binding, 
        D 
I get cold. 
                        Em 
'Cause I've been this awful shade of 
                  C* 
Lonely since your reasons left the room. 
            Gm* 
And I'd see everything get warmer 
         D* 
If you decide to follow suit 
           C                  D               Em 
If I could paint the town with all your good intent. 
                C              D                 Gm 
A  Em  D 
I'd leave these walls as red as my eyes could've been. 
D              C            D            Gm 
A        Em 
While picking comfort for my father for a place to rest his head. 
C                                       D hold 
But Tallahassee will stay grey outside instead. 


holding              C 
If I had any other heart, 
             Gm          D 
If any other piece spoke louder. 
                   C 
If I had any other hands, 
                     Gm 
I wouldn't need the boys 
              Em            D 
To tell the world about the coward that re- 
C       Gm 
Fuses to stand, 
             Em            D 
And claim no blood on your hands. 
                   C              D   Em    A 
Gm A 
If I had any other heart, if I had any other heart beside my own 


C                       Gm 
If I were king of the world 
                         Em 
And I could build you a day 
                              D hold 
And smile just to rip it all away. 

I want to place a memory in your head 

That screams about regret. 


C D Em D 

                            C 
If I had any other heart, 
                 Gm                        D 
If any other piece spoke louder. 


                   C      G, 
If I had any other hands, 
                   Em  D 
If I had any other hands. 


C  Gm  Em  D 
C  Gm  D D 

                       C         Gm   D 
Oh God, if I had any other heart. 
                         C  Gm  Em  D 
Woah if I had any other hands. 


                  C          Gm 
And you're still refusing to stand. 
              Em            D 
And claim the blood on your hands. 
         D 
If I had any other heart. 
         Em 
If I had any other heart.
