G

[Verse 1]
G
It's probably now that I need you the most
          D
When I'm one half child and the other ghost
    D                                          Cadd9
And one of 'em wants to pull you close and the other to let you go
Cadd9
Time's criminal love heart won
      G
And love defies everyone
   D                            Cadd9            G
Inside my skin, a skeleton is warming up his act

[Verse 2]
G
Though my body's my dog and my friend doesn't bite
           D
Though he looks severe and erudite
 D                                    Cadd9
A hundred degrees Fahrenheit he's as cool as an ermine
   Cadd9                               G
If one of these is the poison cup and my acceptance seems abrupt
     D                                  Cadd9               G
But if you're gonna line 'em up, well I have to knock 'em down

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
G
Well there's nothing so wrong that what's right can't fix
    D                               D                                      Cadd9
Despite how blood and water mix and when a pony runs out of tricks and his work has just begun
    Cadd9
Now lord, duty bade me fight
         G                            D
Just a lonely impulse of delight and balancing had brought to mind
     D
The years to come, the years behind
      D                         D                               Cadd9           G
Will I grow weary of the sun, remembering what I have done with old mythologies?

[Chorus 1]
G         D
You gotta choose
    C  G       C  G      Am7
You wanted the song to rescue us
Amadd9 Am    C         G    D
A   -  my,   what did you leave for us?
                     G
So we could get home

[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
G                                 D
Solomon sang Sheba's grace and he kissed her soft and sulking face
   D                                           Cadd9
If one of us has to leave this place, will the other come along?
Cadd9
We been on the round and round
  G                                 D
Shared our kisses by the pound and chased our shadows on the ground
  D
Spilled our cups in China town
      D
Put up the moon, took down the sun
  D
Played our songs for everyone
     D                             Cadd9          G
Remembering what we had done with old mythologies

[Chorus 2]
G         D
You gotta choose
    C  G       C  G      Am7
You wanted the song to rescue us
Amadd9 Am    C         G    D
A   -  my,   what did you leave for us?
                     G
So we could get home
                     G
So we could get home
