Fm                                D#/G
Chase away my heart and heartache

Run me over, throw me over, cast me out
Fm                           D#/G
Find a river running to the west wind
Gm
Just above the shoulderline

You will see a cloud

A#                       F
Tie me to a tiny wooden raft
Cm                            D#
Burn my body, point me to the undertow
A#                            F
Push me off into the void at last
Cm
Watch me drift and
                   D#     Dm Cm
Watch me struggle, let me go
                     A#
Cause I really wanna know

Will anybody ever love me?

Will anybody ever love me?
   Cm
In every season
                  D#    Dm  Cm
Pledge allegiance to my heart
                                 F
Pledge allegiance to my burning heart

Hello, wildness, please forgive me now
For the heartache and the misery I create
Take my suffering as I take my vow
Wash me now, anoint me with that golden blade

Tie me to the final wooden stake (Oh, ooh-ooh)
Burn my body, celebrate the afterglow (Afterglow)
Wash away the summer sins I made (Oh, ooh-ooh)
Watch me drift and watch me struggle, let me go
(Let me go)
'Cause I really wanna know

Chorus:
Will anybody ever love me? (Love me)
For good reasons
Without grievance, not for sport (Not for sport)
Will anybody ever love me? (Love me)
In every season
Pledge allegiance to my heart (To my heart)
In every season
Pledge allegiance to my heart (To my heart)

My burning heart
My burning heart
My burning heart
(Will anybody ever love me? Love me)
My burning heart
(Will anybody ever love me? Love me)
My burning heart
(Will anybody ever love me? Love me)
My burning heart
