   C                Gsus2   Am
Be still my beating heart
   Am/G     C            D
It would be better to be cool
         G                    Am
It's not time to be open just yet
  Am/G        Am            Am/G       Am
A lesson once learned is so hard to forget

   C                Gsus2   Am
Be still my beating heart
Am/G    C           D
I'll be taken for a fool
         G                      Am/G
It's not healthy to run at this pace
    Am            Am/G       Am
The blood runs so red to my face

             Dsus2        E
I've been to every single book I know
   F                        Dsus2        Gsus2
To soothe the thoughts that plague me sooooo...
  Am                            Em
I sink like a stone that's been thrown in the ocean
   F                      G              Dm
My logic has drowned in a sea of emotion
Dm              Em
Stop before you start
                    Am
Be still my beating heart

Be still my beating heart...

   C              Gsus2   Am
Restore my broken dreams
Am/G      Am     Am/G      C
Shattered like a falling glass
        Am/G                    Am
I'm not ready to be broken just yet
  Am/G        Am            G          D     Am
A lesson once learned is so hard to forget

   C                Gsus2   Am
Be still my beating heart
Am/G      C                   D
You must learn to stand your ground
         G                      Am/G
It's not healthy to run at this pace
    C             G         Am
The blood runs so red to my face

             Dsus2        E
I've been to every single book I know

To soothe the thoughts that plague me sooooo...

Interlude (piano):
| Dm | Em | F | G | Dm ...

Dm               Em
Stop before you start
                    Am
Be still my beating heart

Backing vocals:
   Am       Am/G    Am
Be still my beating heart...
   Am       Am/G    Am
Be still my beating heart...
   Am       Am/G    Am
Be still my beating heart...
   Am       Am/G    Am
Be still my beating heart...

C                   Am
  Never to be wrong
Am                F
  Never to make promises that break
C                               Am
  It's like singing in the wind
Am                     F
  Or writing on the surface of a lake
Am                                      Am/G
And I wriggle like a fish caught on dry land
Am                          Am/G
And I struggle to avoid any help at hand

  Am          Dm                Em
I sink like a stone that's been thrown in the ocean
   F                      G              Dm
My logic has drowned in a sea of emotion
Dm              Em
Stop before you start
                    Am
Be still my beating heart

Outro (with backing vocals):
   Am       Am/G    Am
Be still my beating heart... (repeat to fade)
