Intro: F G E F (2x) 
        

F                     G 
They've been circling, they've been circling 
E                      F 
Since the day they were born 
F               G     
It's disturbing how they're circling 
E                   F 
Fifty feet from the pond 
F            G 
Pretty often, pretty often 
E                F 
I don't want to be told 
F              G 
It's a problem, it's a problem 
E              F 
It's a problem, I know 


F                 G 
I won't keep what I can't catch 
   Em               F 
In my bare hands without a net 
F                   G 
It's hard enough to walk on grass 
   Em               F 
So conscious of the consequences 


F G E F (2x) 


F                    G 
They've been jerking, they've been jerking 
E                F 
In a pail by the dock 
F                        G                     E 
I know that oxygen might make them blossom and die 
                  F 
But I'm not gonna talk 
F                  G 
Feed them details, feed them e-mails 
E                  F 
They'll eventually grow 
F                     G 
But it's not working, it's not working 
E               F 
Not as far as I know 


F                  G 
And killing things is not so hard 
     Em                 F  
It's hurting that's the hardest part 
    F               G 
And when the wizard gets to me 
    Em           F 
I'm asking for a smaller heart 


F G E F (4x) 


F                 G 
When I got you, I thought that I got you 
E                F 
Now I'll ruin it all 
F                 G 
Feeling helpless, acting selfish 
E               F 
Being human and all 
F                    G 
And they're jumping, and they're jumping 
E                     F 
But they'll never get out 
F                  G 
Just keep touring, keep on ignoring 
E                F 
Be a good little trout 


    F                 G 
The butcher stops and winds his watch 
    Em                    F 
And lays their lives down on the block 
   F             G   
He raises up his hatchet and the 
Em                 F 
Big hand strikes a compromise 


F           G          D 
Wait, we'll trade you, wait 
F            G        D 
Please, just one more day 
F          G       D  
Then we'll go with no complaining 
F               D 
No complaining, no complaining 
F              G  E F 
Stop killing 


F G E F 


F                 G 
Killing things is not so hard 
     Em                 F  
It's hurting that's the hardest part 
F               G 
When the wizard gets to me 
    Em           F 
I'm asking for a smaller heart 
    F              G 
And if he tells me no 
             Em             F 
I'll hold my breath until I hit the floor 
F            G 
Eventually I know I'm doomed 
   Em            F 
To get what I am asking for 


F G C G F (2x) 


F               G 
Now my heart is exactly the size 
     C         G          F 
Of a six sided die cut in half 
        C    G           F 
Made of ruby red stained glass 
      F                        G                           
Can I knock you unconscious as long as I promise 
     C            G             F 
I'll love you and I'll make you laugh 
       F        G  
And my heart is exactly the size 
     C         G          F 
Of a six sided die cut in half 
        C    G           F 
Made of ruby red stained glass 
      F                        G 
Can I knock you unconscious as long as I promise 
     C            G             F 
I'll love you and I'll make you laugh
