Intro: (F    G Am    C    G) 2x


[1st verse]
     F             G  Am
The moon's lit by the sun
                  C                 G
The same as everyone, same as everyone who shines, dear
F                 G   Am                       C
    Home inside your head, you fill it with regret
                G
Fill it with regret, decorate with fear
F             G                  F                G
    Hand to heart, and heart to hand, my hand to you


[Chorus]
         F          C             Dm             Am
Rust or gold, you decide what you see, what you hold
        F                  C              Dm             Am 
Let it burn there in your hand, watch it grow, watch it grow
           F                         C
Breath of life, come and fill your lungs
             Dm              Am
And give it away until it's gone
           F              C          Dm          Am
Or hold it in and let it die, let it die, let it die


[2nd verse: arpeggios' tab at the end]
F               G   Am                   C
    Turn away your eyes, from the other side
                G
From the other side of your wishing star
F                         G   Am                     C
    And roots will twist and wind, a garden in your mind
                  G
A garden in your mind, stay right where you are
F             G                  F                G   Am
    Hand to heart, and heart to hand, my hand to you


[Chorus]
         F          C             Dm             Am
Rust or gold, you decide what you see, what you hold
        F                  C                 Dm             Am
Let it burn there in your hand, or watch it grow, watch it grow
           F                         C
Breath of life, come and fill your lungs
             Dm              Am
And give it away until it's gone
           F              C          Dm         
Or hold it in and let it die, let it die, let it die
