9. WILD HORSES
No capo
[Intro]
B E
[Verse]
B
Ooh, you wanted it too late
E
You wanted it too late now
B
I can't keep track of all your tears
E
You're crying rivers way too long
B
Ooh, I'm tired of loneliness
E
And way more tired of wasted time
B
As I'm still, you barely look alive
E
These sharks will do so much good
[Pre-chorus]
B A E
Just keep your wits about you, don't let it end you
B A E
And summon everything you've held up in reserve
B A E
Don't fall for every single stolen glance and wink
B A E
Try to keep your heart on higher shelves once
[Chorus]
B
What are you holding back
A E
I know your wild horses on the inside of you
(Stop holding back)
B
Now slip the tattoo on
A E
Serenity, its gone from red to blue
(Stop holding back)
B
I'll make you of this love
A E
And no you don't have time without it
(Stop holding back)
B
I know I don't know much
A E
But I do know when to preach
(Stop holding back)
B
[Verse]
B
Ooh, you wanted it to work
E
You wanted it to work so much
B
But it's been broken in your hands
E
The minute that it found your hands
B
Ooh, you're trying not to blink
E
And what you wanna see what is
B
Ooh, it hasn't finished you
E
It's only that it feels that way
[Pre-chorus]
B A E
Just keep your wits about you, don't let it end you
B A E
And summon everything you've held up in reserve
B A E
Don't fall for every single stolen glance and wink
B A E
Try to keep your heart on higher shelves once
E
[Chorus]
B
What are you holding back
A E
I know your wild horses on the inside of you
(Stop holding back)
B
Now slip the tattoo on
A E
Serenity, its gone from red to blue
(Stop holding back)
B
I'll make you of this love
A E
And no you don't have time without it
(Stop holding back)
B
I know I don't know much
A E
But I do know when to preach
(Stop holding back)
[Outro]
