Listen to song for strumming pattern and timing. Capo 2 G D I opened up the music box Em I wish you would have changed the locks To keep me from replaying D All the feelings I've been saving G D I did not keep them locked up inside Em I did not take my steps in stride D Thought you were bluffing, trampled on you Went from friends to nothing C G D Radio turns to gold C G D And paves the way to find my home C G D When I'm alone C G D When I'm alone G Em F#m G G D Overeager and underway Em I risked it all, I had to say D What opened me up for the beating G But the heart is for bleeding D With scraps of songs I paste along Em The seams of my clumsy tongue D In hopes of creating the golden notes That might bring you back to me C G D Radio turns to gold C G D And paves the way to find my home C G D When I'm alone C G D When I'm alone G Em F#m C G D Em D G Like phantoms on the highway D Em After holiday, gritting their teeth D Racing to find a place for their soul G Or at least a place... that's less familiar D We offer up our heart before Em The heart's invited or asked for D Oh no, here I go my friend, I'm repeating G But the heart is for bleeding... D And I've said all I can say Em I am retreating, on my way D Music box, play my song I'll sing along C To that bitterly sweet tone When I'm alone...
