Intro: Bm7 - Eb5 - E5 (x4)


Verse 1:
      Bm7      Eb5   E5
There seems to be no difference
        Bm7     Eb5           E5
Between present tense and the pretense
          F#5    Eb5
Cause it's all a part of 
    Ab5          E5        Bm7 - Eb5 - E5
what you've been trying to say
     Bm7        Eb5           E5
Well you've got all the right reasons
         Bm7     Eb5           E5
To write red hot rants for the weekend
           F#5    Eb5
But they're not a part of 
    Ab5          E5        Bm7 - Eb5 - E5
what you've been trying to say


Refrain:
Ab5                      E5
  They say you lost your way
(You're way with words)
Ab5                E5(hold)
  The right way to go


Chorus:
                 Eb5      E5
You've lost your way with words 
      Ab5          B5     F#5
or at least that's what I heard
                 Eb5      E5
You've lost your way with words 
       C#5 - B5 - F#5
and to me
F#5(hold)     Bm7 - Eb5 - E5              
what could be worse?
              Bm7 - Eb5 - E5
What could be worse?


Verse 2:
          Bm7    Eb5             E5
When your father passed down his wisdom
    Bm7           Eb5         E5
Sometimes I think he must've spilled some
         F#5       Eb5
Cause you lost the sight of 
    Ab5          E5        Bm7 - Eb5 - E5
what you've been trying to say
    Bm7         Eb5      E5
And I know that nobody's perfect
     Bm7          Eb5           E5
Well no one would want to sound desperate
     F#5        Eb5
Unless that's a part of 
    Ab5          E5        Bm7 - Eb5 - E5
what you've been trying to say


(Repeat Chorus except last  2 lines)


             F5           
what could be?
              E5
What could be worse? 


Bridge:
F5
  Oh, you could dance around
E5                  D5
  Dance around with nothing to say
                 Eb5      E5
You've lost your way with words 
   Ab5          B5     F#5
at least that's what I heard
                Eb5       E5   C#5 - B5 - F#5
You've lost your way with words


(Repeat Chorus)
