[Verse 1]
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
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 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
 
[Verse 2]
                 Em                    C
I don't feel connected to all of your lies
Am                  Em                        C
But you can do 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
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 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
 
[Bridge]
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
 
[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

I start on a C, then Am and Em progressively through the verse (which you picked up, just missed a couple). Chorus is C, Am, Em, G. You've done fantastically though and I'm really grateful you've posted it. Thanks so much for saving me the trouble! I just love this song.
