Heart On My Sleeve

B C#m E B Someone call me a Doctor B Or call me a nurse C#m So I know it ain’t real C#m But I swear it still hurts E It’s like everyone round here E Wants to observe me be E Punched to the pavement G#m Or kicked to the kerb B So I could disappear B You know I swear I’ve been debating it C#m Life wouldn’t feel so short if I didn’t spend C#m So much time wasting it E But now it’s running out E I’ll be glad when it’s over E Can’t remember the last time E I spoke to you sober B But the truth is I need ya B The truth is I care C#m But I’d rather leave ya C#m To save my own head E My heart from the pain E If you chose to leave E So I’ll put on my jacket B And cover the heart on my sleeve C#m E B And all of my friends, they try and reach out C#m But I can’t even whisper what my conscience shouts E Says they don’t even love ya, they don’t even care E When I look in the mirror, it’s not me standing there B I don’t recognise me, or my face or my hair C#m Or my eyes or my teeth or the clothes that I wear E Cos all I ever hear is beauties only skin deep E Which means you all fucking hate me E But what’s underneath B But the truth is I need ya B The truth is I care C#m But I’d rather leave ya C#m To save my own head E My heart from the pain E If you chose to leave E So I’ll put on my jacket B And cover the heart on my sleeve C#m E B The truth is I need ya B The truth is I care C#m But I’d rather leave ya C#m To save my own head E My heart from the pain E If you chose to leave E So I’ll put on my jacket B And cover the heart on my sleeve B Pass me a T-Shirt ?? C#m Tells me something I need to cover the heart that I wear on my sleeve E Put me in the papers or put me on the screen E Take me from the boy that I was meant to be B Although you toss me a life ring to save me from drowning C#m Fall in love with myself with my thorny crown E I’ll never be human, and I’ll never be sane E So I’ll keep taking substance to numb all the pain B But the truth is I need ya B The truth is I care C#m But I’d rather leave ya C#m To save my own head E My heart from the pain E If you chose to leave E So I’ll put on my jacket B And cover the heart on my sleeve C#m E B C#m E B
