Silent War

(início)

C                     Am
Stifling this day is stifling
                    F
You're sprawled out like a king
       G                        C
On the sheets of my queen-sized bed
C                  Am
And I'm too hot to lie beside
             F
possessed of idle mind
     G                     C
this calm is a false friend
C                   Am
Jealousy I suspect jealousy
             F
Something is changing me
     G                        C
Real slow from the inside out
C                     Am
It seems you mean too much to me
             F
Too much for comfort see
    G                     C
The cause is the cure now
C           F
We fought a silent war
       G                      C                Am
In the hardware store and the air was thick as paint
         F                          G
Though I carried it on I knew that I was wrong
      C              Am
But I fight when I'm afraid
      F               Dm    G     C
And I come with guns a-blaaaaazing
C                      Am
Someone once I forget who it was
              F
Said Do not think so much
          G                         C
You can't hear what your heart says
C                          Am
But it speaks it tugs and puddle-leaps
             F
And bangs my ribs to pieces
G                        C
Thoughts are the safe bet
C           F
We fought a silent war
       G                      C                Am

          F                         G
Though I carried it on I knew that I was wrong
      C              Am
But I fight when I'm afraid
   F               Dm
My guns will come a-blazing
  F               G    C
A lesser man would be afraid
    Dm          C         Dm         C
And Oh how you razed me oh to the ground
    Dm           Am         F
And love oh you brought me down
         Dm           G              G7        C
with the sound of the shaming as you went out
C F Dm
    G                  C
The cause is the cure now
C           F

With guns I come a-blazing
  F                Dm
A lesser man would break free
     F               G           C
I'm sorry 's all I meant to say
