[Verse 1]
B     G#m      A       
Love open the door
                                                 E
I've been out so long I forgot what I'm fighting for
C#m  Cdim  A               
Your tender call
                                 C#m    B
I hunger for this one or none at all

[Chorus]
A                                   E
They say the color of money's gonna change your mind
A                                            E
But it was never worth the weight of what it claimed to define
A                                        E
They want the worst of me? They want the world to see, well-
B
It never really meant a lot to me
A                                 E
Another roll of the dice, another flick of the pen
A                                 E
till I waste my heart and want it back again
A                                 E
Still I place my hard work in the hands that feed and say,
B                                               
"I love you honey, take what you want from me"

[Verse 2]
B       G#m          B
There's love in your soul
                                                           E
Boy you may not know it, but you show it as you're growing old
C#m   Cdim   A
Your arbiter
                                       C#m     B
Kicks and crawls and calls you to your word

[Chorus]
A                                      E
They said the color of money was gonna change your mind
A                                            E
But it was never worth the weight of what it claimed to define
A                                    E
Another fake wrote it in on borrowed motions and time
B
Strange, he used to be a friend of mine
A                                 E
Another roll of the dice, another vice in the noose
A                                  E
Until your parodied integrity will pass for the truth
A                                        E
But now they're asking for proof and the youth ain't free, you beg-
B                                               G
"I love you honey, take what you want from me"

And when the curtain finally falls
                             C#m              
It won't have bothered me at all
                          B
I bent my world to let you in
                        E
It won't be coming back again
E                           A
This weight I carry sets me free
                        C#m              
In a mirror dimly I do see
                             B                            
For you my heart will always bleed
B                                             
I love you honey, take what you want from me

[Outro]

Ahhhhh
