Heart of My Own by Basia Bulat
Standard tuning
Capo 3rd
Note: My first tab so any mistakes just leave comment. Also, the lyrics are still
a mystery to me so don't know if they're right. Have no idea what she says 9th line in chorus.
Intro: Em Bm C Am Em
Verse:
Em Bm
Under that burning ether that falls
C G
down on these walls burning my arms
D Em
I've been alarmed when I sat by you
Bm
For every word I could undo
C G
I've been uncrossed and I've been untrue
D Em
I've been the thorn I've been the heart
Chorus:
Em
The heart of my own
burn it down low
C
the light in your verse
G
and the shadow between
D Em
the way that I was when I used to know
if I go what do I hope
C G
For the maid or the mother I'll be
D Em
If only the loom and a thread would hold
C G
It is work to be ? out here
D Em
Tomorrow I'm mending the empty bones
C G
There are roses that come without seeking
D Em
They are the ones that I have to sow
C G
In your verses that I am repeating
D Em
The way that I was when I used to know

Em Bm C G D Em
Breakdown:
C D G Em
I wrote on these walls a simple charm
Am C
To keep the wolves at bay
D G Em
Gave of a heart the strength of my arms
Am C
To hold you close and safe
D G Em
But I kept my eyes closed and I'll never know
Am C
Where the shadows are these days
D G Em
I stood in the room of a house divided
Am
Ah and it washed away from me
C
It washed away from me
Am
Oh and it washed away from me
C
It washed away...
Chorus:
Em
...to take my own
burn it down low
C
the light in your verse
G
and the shadow between
D Em
the way that I was when I used to know
if I go what do I hope
C G
For the maid or the mother I'll be
D Em
If only the loom and a thread would hold
C G
It is work to be ? out here
D Em
Tomorrow I'm mending the empty bones
C G
There are roses that come without seeking
D Em
They are the ones that I have to sow
C G
In your verses that I am repeating
D Em
The way that I was when I used to know
Outro:
