Verse 1:
D D5 C#5 B
Keep your head and everything will be cool
(B)
You didn't have to make me feel like a fool
Asus2 A Asus2 A F#m E
When I try to say, I feel the way that I do
B F#m E
I want to talk with you
B E B A
And make it loud and clear
B
Though you don't care to hear, but
Chorus
(w/12-string as per intro)
E B A
Couldn't I just tell you the way that I feel
B A E
I can't keep it bottled up inside
E B A
And couldn't we pretend that its no big deal
B A E
And there's really nothing left to hide
Verse 2:
Something sure doesn't seem right to me
When you can turn your back whenever you please
And you stroll away, calmly bid me adieu
Why can't I talk with you
And put it in your ear
Though you don't care to hear, but
[repeat chorus]
Bridge:
A Bb B A
(Hear me out) Why don't you lend me an ear
A Bb B A
(Hear me out) You got no reason to fear
A Bb B A E
(Hear me out) I'll make it perfectly clear
F#m A Bb B
I love you
[guitar solo over bridge chords]
[pickup into last verse]
(B) B C C# D
Verse 3:
I don't come whining with my heart on my sleeve
I'm not a coward if that's what you believe
And I'm not afraid but not ashamed if it's true
I got to talk with you
And then I'll make it clear
(A)
Make it clear
Make it clear
