Any Other Heart Acoustic

[Em]And this is my last remaining filter
On my [C]last remaining words.
It's leaving the [Gm]taste of something bitter on my [D]tongue.
I'm leaving a [Em]ladder full of reasons
Along with a [C]line that starts to blur
Into a [Gm]page that says you faded away too [D]young.

'Cause you're [C]leaving something[D] short of [Em]innocent.
           [C]             [D]                   [Gm]  [A]
[Em]I'm [D]still thinking of the times we should've spent.
          [Gm]            [D]                 [Gm]      [A]
It's as[Em] if this form of treason crawled up deep inside your head.
             [C]                                [D] [hold]
And left you notes on how to keep your insides dead.

[holding]              [C]
If I had any other heart,
If any other [Gm]piece spoke [D]louder.
If I had any other [C]hands,
I wouldn't need the [Gm]boys
To tell the [Em]world about the [D]coward that re-
[C]Fuses to[Gm] stand,
And claim no [Em]blood on your [D]hands.
If I had a[C]ny other heart beside m[D]y own,

We might've left you cold.

[Em]  [Gm]  [D]  [D]
[Em]  [C]  [D]  [D]

I'm handed a [Em]book about instructions
On when [C]I should know to go.
And tracing my [Gm]fingers down the binding,
I get co[D]ld.
'Cause I've been this aw[Em]ful shade of
Lonely since your [C]reasons left the room.
And I'd see [Gm]everything get warmer
If you de[D]cide to follow suit
If I could [C]paint the town with[D] all your good i[Em]ntent.
                [C]              [D]                 [Gm]
[A]I'd[Em] lea[D]ve these walls as red as my eyes could've been.
[D]              [C]            [D]            [Gm]
[A]While pic[Em]king comfort for my father for a place to rest his head.
[C]                                       [D] [hold]
But Tallahassee will stay grey outside instead.

[holding]              [C]
If I had any other heart,
If any other [Gm]piece spoke [D]louder.
If I had any other [C]hands,
I wouldn't need the b[Gm]oys
To tell the wo[Em]rld about the [D]coward that re-
[C]Fuses to[Gm] stand,
And claim no [Em]blood on your [D]hands.
                   [C]              [D]   [Em]    [A]
[Gm]If [A]I had any other heart, if I had any other heart beside my own

[C]If I were king of the wo[Gm]rld
And I could build you a d[Em]ay
                              [D] [hold]
And smile just to rip it all away.

I want to place a memory in your head

That screams about regret.

[C] [D] [Em] [D]

If I had any other heart,   [C]
If any other piec[Gm]e spoke louder.           [D]

If I had any other [C]hands, [G]
If I had any other [Em]hand[D]s.

[C]  [Gm]  [Em]  [D]
[C]  [Gm]  [D] [D]

Oh God, if I had any ot[C]her heart.[Gm]     [D]
Woah if I had any other h[C]and[Gm]s.  [Em]      [D]

And you're still r[C]efusing to [Gm]stand.
And claim the [Em]blood on your [D]hands.
If I had [D]any other heart.
If I had [Em]any other heart.
