Verse 1:
B5 Eb5 E5
There seems to be no difference
B5 Eb5 E5
Between present tense and the pretense
F#5 Eb5
Cause it's all a part of
Ab5 E5 B5 - Eb5 - E5
what you've been trying to say
B5 Eb5 E5
Well you've got all the right reasons
B5 Eb5 E5
To write red hot rants for the weekend
F#5 Eb5
But they're not a part of
Ab5 E5 B5 - 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) B5 - Eb5 - E5
what could be worse?
B5 - Eb5 - E5
What could be worse?
Verse 2:
B5 Eb5 E5
When your father passed down his wisdom
B5 Eb5 E5
Sometimes I think he must've spilled some
F#5 Eb5
Cause you lost the sight of
Ab5 E5 B5 - Eb5 - E5
what you've been trying to say
B5 Eb5 E5
And I know that nobody's perfect

Unless that's a part of
Ab5 E5 B5 - 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

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)
