Intro: "It’s scary to watch someone you love go into the centre of himself and confront
fears... Fear of failure, fear of death, fear of going insane
You have to fail a little, die a little, go insane a little to come out the other side."
C* C  C/ B  Am  
Break my heart slowly
C* C  C/ B  Am  
Dora Maar said to me
C* C  C/ B  Am  
She came to me in a dream
C* C  C/ B  Am  
Reaching out for luck with fear
She said:
F"HoEld GonF, hold on, hold on to your gun"
C* C  C/ B  Am  
It was cold, the night was black
C* C  C/ B  Am  
You could feel her freezing hands
C* C  C/ B  Am  
Exiting a life of chance
C* C  C/ B  Am  
Painted dead a million times
She said:
F"HoEld GonF, hold on, hold on to your gun"
FIf your life has changed
EIf it makes no sense
GYou can carry on
FIf you still belong
FIf your life has changed
EIf it makes no sense
GYou can carry on
FIf you still belong
C* C  C/ B  Am  
C’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon,
c’mon
C* C  C/ B  Am  
Break my heart slowly
C* C  C/ B  Am  
Break my heart slowly
C* C  C/ B  Am  
So c’mon now, c’mon now
C* C  C/ B  Am  
So c’mon, c’mon, c’mon

So c’mon now, c’mon now
