Tuning: Half-step down Key: F# 🤘 Intro: G 🤘 Verse 1: F Why should I try and judge the things they say G That just won’t budge, I’m letting go F And sheltered from the blind F So you managed to be kind G C But still enough to show me how to keep it together D F When I’m crying out in vain F No matter who’s to blame G C G There’s still a ways to go F So, if you ask me to believe your heart won’t follow you G It’s got a mind of its own
🤘 Pre-chorus: Gb C When it says “Run” and the road gets rough Am And you’re the one G B Gb Whose shoulders just ain’t wide enough C Am Whose shoulders shrug when they’ve had enough 🤘 Chorus: D C I’d be the last to say, "don’t follow your heart" Em C G But there’s more to what it takes to be a man D C Than what you've known C What you’ve shown Em C G C D Than that we know you understand 🤘 Verse 2: F It's not the thing, if I were you F I would say all that I do G C D To be half as strong, or still belong F If you should take the time F To look back at what you find G Your heart misadventures 🤘 Pre-chorus: Gb C When it says “Run” and the road gets rough Am And you’re the one G B Gb Whose shoulders just ain’t wide enough C Am Whose shoulders shrug when they’ve had enough 🤘 Chorus: D C I’d be the last to say, "don’t follow your heart" Em C G But there’s more to what it takes to be a man D C Than what you've known C What you’ve shown Em C G Than that we know you understand D C In fact, I never said, "don’t follow your heart" Em C G If I thought that's what it takes to make a man D C From what you've known G C G All that you’ve been shown Em G Gee, even now I'd hope you'd understand Guitar Solo: Bb C G Bb F G Bb C G Bb F Gb C A Out-🤘 Chorus: D C I’d be the last to say, "don’t follow your heart" Em C G But there’s more to what it takes to be a man D C Than what you've known C What you’ve shown Em C G Than that we know you understand D C In fact, I never said, "don’t follow your heart" Em C G If I thought that's what it takes to make a man D C From what you've known G C G All that you’ve been shown Em G Gee, even now I'd hope you'd understand
