F   Am   G


[Verse 1]
                F                       Am
The call of the wilds down a whispering wind
                 G                        Dm
It's more like a cry that gets under your skin
                 F                    Am               
Till one day you fly too close to the flame, too close 
       G
to the flame
               F                  Am
And all of the things you leave behind
                   G                      Dm
Catch up with your heart and reel in your mind
            F                Am                G
Unaware I belong now, I just hope it's not too late
             F               Am  G
It's not too late

[Chorus 1]
F
  Elmira take me home
Am   G
  And cradle me upon the waves
F
  I still keep you in my soul
Am   G
  And sometimes I count the days
F
  And Elmira you should know
Am   G
  I left but never lost my place
F
  And these nights I miss you most
Am   G                    F
  My heart is yours to break
Am   G


[Verse 2]
             F                       Am
I see you in streets, I dream you in dreams
                  G                         Dm
The sound of your voice, drowning out the machines
               F                       Am
From this far away, need you a million ways
                G
There's never a day goes by

[Chorus 2]
F
  Elmira take me home
Am   G
  And cradle me upon the waves
F
  I still keep you in my soul
Am   G
  And sometimes I count the days
F
  And Elmira you should know
Am   G
  I left but never lost my place
F
  And these nights I miss you most
Am   G                    F
  My heart is yours to break
Am   G                    F
  My heart is yours to break (My heart is yours to 
break)
Am   G                    F
  My heart is yours to break (My heart is yours to 
break)
Am   G                    F
  My heart is yours to break
Am   G
