Hush Hush

Bm7
He tip toes from brick to brick
    E7
And skips the cracks or he gets sick
Em7             Em
Counting sheep, losing sleep
                          Bm
Now his lids are heavy set
Bm
Run for it, they're on the prowl
      B                        G
These demons never make a sound
                              E
Cries ignored, this cardboard box
Em  F#                Bm
Will keep him dry for now

G      D      A
Why do I give in
A
When I know it's not the only answer
G           D       A
Run away to save my skin
A
When my angst is growing like a cancer
    G                    A
And oh, the things we'll say
           A#              Bm
When we're standing in our way
G                        F#
Maybe soon this all will be
                 Bm
A distant memory

      Bm               F#m                 G            Em
There might as well be bloodstains on this carpet floor
            Bm        F#m            G            E   F#  Bm
He's laying face down wondering what fighting back is for
Bm                                            G
Don't even give 'em a chance to knock you down
G                     E         F#            Bm
Don't even give 'em a chance to knock you down
Bm                   F#m                Bm     F#
And I'll be singing' when I turn around

G      D      A
Why do I give in
A
When I know it's not the only answer
G           D       A
Run away to save my skin
A
When my angst is growing like a cancer
    G                    A
And oh, the things we'll say
           F#          Bm
When we're standing in our way
G                        F#
Maybe soon this all will be
                 G
A distant memory

G             D
Wars waged on life
              F#m
We wave it in defeat
              Bm
Take down the white
A                G
Soldier, on your feet
        A    D
I march head strong
                      F#                Bm
To shout aloud that, "Now, now, now I'm free"
Bm A G#m G
Bm A G# D
B D Em
B A G# G

              A
Why do I give in
A
When I know it's not the only answer
G           D       A
Run away to save my skin
A
When my angst is growing like a cancer
    G                    A
And oh, the things we'll say

Maybe soon this all will be
          Bm
A distant memory

A distant memory (hush, hush)

A distant memory (hush, hush)

A distant memory (hush, hush)

Don't even give 'em a chance to knock you down
Bm
Don't even give 'em a chance to knock you down
