Don’t Tell Me

Am                       Em 
Save your breath, my brother 
                Am 
It's not going in 
              Em                        C 
I'm not your disciple, I choose how I sin 
Am                     Em 
I've got a distant memory of previous lives 
C   Am                 Em 
So don't say I'm not ready 
                     C 
Back off with those knives 

 Am                         Em 
You don't know me like you used to 
D                       C 
You can leave, but I refuse to 
 Am                         Em 
You can tell me that I'm crazy 
G 
But I won't stop and this won't make me 

Chorus 
Am   C  Em   G 
Oh, don't tell me I'm not ready 
Am   C  Em   G                          C 
Oh, don't tell me I'm not ready for love 
Am   Em C    Am 
         For love 

                 Em                    C 
I don't feel connected to all of your lies 
Am               Em                        C 
But you can a kindness and look me in the eyes 
Am           Em                              C 
My soul's resurrected, yeah it's been there before 
Am                       Em                   C 
So, don't say I'm not ready to level on my soul 

 Am                         Em 
You don't know me like you used to 
D                       C 
You can leave, but I refuse to 
 Am                         Em 
You can tell me that I'm crazy 
G 
But I won't stop and this won't make me 

Am   C  Em   G 
Oh, don't tell me I'm not ready 
Am   C  Em   G                          C 
Oh, don't tell me I'm not ready for love 
Am   Em C    Am 
         For love 

Am 
The course that you have set for me 
C 
The shadows you crossed over me 
Em 
The road is getting hard to see 
G 
But I'm gonna make it through 
Am 
Horizons that are out of sight 
C 
Lost behind the fading light 
Em 
Ready for what's coming, and they must be ready too 

Am   C  Em   G 
Oh, don't tell me I'm not ready 
Am   C  Em   G                          C 
Oh, don't tell me I'm not ready for love 
Am   Em C    Am 
         For love
