Fun song. The bass line just goes to the octave with the beat (except the fills.
John Avila was a great player)
Intro: G Am F G [4x]
GWith sadness in Ammy heart and joyF in my mind G
I thought about the ghost that we left behind.
With everyone around telling us what to do
with deafening sound whisper "I love you."
The fire in your eyes-- may it never go out.
The sweetness of your tears make it feel like night.
I see no escape from the roles we always play
What do we have to prove on this judgment day
FYou're missing the Amwhole point-- yoFu're not my littAmle pet
FDon't throw away yoAmur life-- The gFames not over yeGt
FI do not own your sAmoul--don't want Fyou in a cage Am
FI only want your heAmart to find a spFecial place G
G Am F G [4x] (instrumental)
GYou're mine now But yAmou're not my sister F G
You're mine now But you're not my slave
You're mine But you're not my child
You're mine now But you're not my slave
You're mine now But you're not my slave
GWith sadness in Ammy heart and cloFunds in my head G
I thought about us both and the lives we led.
The pages on a book and pictures on a screen
We shape ourselves like clay from someone else's dream.
One second you are cast just like stones at my feet
But I am not a king please don't worship me.
With everyone around telling us what to do
With deafening sound whisper "I love you."
FYou're missing the Amwhole point-- yoFu're not my littAmle pet
FDon't throw away yoAmur life-- The gFames not over yeGt
FI do not own your sAmoul--don't want Fyou in a cage Am
FI only want your heAmart to find a spFecial place G
G Am F G [4x]
GYou're mine now But yAmou're not my sister F G
You're mine now But you're not my slave
You're mine But you're not my child
You're mine now But you're not my slave
You're mine But you're not my sister
You're mine now But you're not my slave
You're mine But you're not my child
You're mine now But you're not my slave
You're mine now But you're not my slave
You're mine now But you're not my slave
You're mine now But you're not my slave
