Stop putting words 
      B     E 
in my mouth They 
taste better when 
B                 E 
they’re coming out 
Still I can’t help 
    B 
but choke them down 
     E 
when you’re around 
      B 
but I can’t seem 
           E 
to keep it down 

Interlude: B E (x4) 


verse 1: 
      B 
Don’t let it go 
        E 
to your head I’m 
not here for my 
B 
health if I was 
            E 
then I’d be dead 
Instead I’m testing 
   B 
my patience waiting 
 E 
around for you 
      B       E 
to be gracious 
               F# 
I’ll never let go 
B/Eb      E 
Don’t be afraid 
I’m on the front 
         C#m 
lines to fight 
B/Eb E 
for  you 

Stop putting words 
      E    B 
in my mouth They 
taste better when 
F#                C#m 
they’re coming out 
        B/Eb 
Still I can’t help 
    E 
but choke them down 
     B 
when you’re around 
      F# 
but I can’t seem 
           G#m 
to keep it down
