Am
There's a scar on my lip
C
One that you can't help but kiss
Am
From when I was a kid
G
I got it like this
F       C       F       C
See I was three years old, maybe younger still
G
I crashed headlong into a window sill
Am              C
And was surprised when I broke instead of it
G
That's the scar that's on my lip
C
That's what you're kissing when we kiss.


F       C
When you leave
F       C       G
You'll be fine.

Am
When it gets real late
C
So late that it's not late anymore
Am
And I'm alone, awake
G
Just creaking with the floors
F       C       F       C
I can ask the sun to let me sleep
G
Don't know what stake it holds in the hours I keep
Am              C
Well I'll push it down, but these burning hands won't seem to do
G
All my efforts fall right through
C
The morning makes me think of you.


F       C
When you leave
F       C       G
You...
Am
Will be fine
F       C       G
You...
C
Will be fine.

C


Am
But if we're talking about distractions
F
Everything is a distraction
C
Except when your blood flows
Am
When your heart beats
C
And when your ribs rise
G
'Cos your lungs breathe
C
If the earth moves
Am
Where will you be
C
With what you love more
G
Where does that put me?


F       C
When you leave
F       C       G
You...
Am
Will be fine
F       C       G
You...
C
Will be fine.
