C D Em D
and if i was yours , but i’m not

C G D/F#
all the kids have always known
Em Am
that the emperor wears new clothes
C G D/F#

Em Am
is better than to be alone

Em Am
saying please come out against the night
C G D/F#
but i would rather be alone

like the kids in art school said they would

D/F# C Em
now i’m ready to start

D/F# C
and now i’m ready to start
Em
my mind is open wide
D/F# C

D/F# C Em
to step out into the dark
D/F#
now i’m ready
