Sting - Be Still My Beating Heart: chords

Am
Be still my beating heart
It would be better to be cool
It's not time to be open just yet
A lesson once learned is so hard to forget
Be still my beating heart
Or I'll be taken for a fool

It's not healthy to run at this pace
The blood runs so red to my face
             Dm            E
I've been to every single book I know
F                           D/F#      G
To soothe the thoughts that plague me so

Chorus:
   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
Am
Still my beating heart
Still my beating heart
Still my beating heart

Restore my broken dreams
Shattered like a falling glass
I'm not ready to be broken just yet
A lesson once learned is so hard to forget
Be still my beating heart
You must learn to stand your ground

It's not healthy to run at this pace
The blood runs so red to my face
I've been to every single book I know
To soothe the thoughts that plague me so

Stop before you start
Be still my beating heart
Never to be wrong
Never to make promises that break
It's like singing in the wind
Or writing on the surface of a lake
And I wriggle like a fish caught on dry land
And I struggle to avoid any help at hand

Chorus
