[Verse 1]
                           F#m7  
You had your heart on your sleeve
               G
 the last time
           F#m7         
Took it so seriously the 
           Gmaj7
last time
                 F#m7     
Gave everybody a piece the
           G
 last time

You shouldn't know what 
      G
that means
                   Gm            
You've been movin' fast,
 splittin'

                        Am     
If you find that silver linin', 
                   G
you're already in deep
                Gm             
There's another piece, that was
        A    F#m    G
 buried underneath
