HOOK CHORDS

[Start]

[Intro]
A E F#m7 C#7 D A D E
            
A E F#m7 C#7 D A
          
D E A
  


[Verse]
           E                
It doesn't matter what I say
F#m C#7 D    A              D          E A
So     long as I sing with inflection  
               E         F#m    C#7
That makes you feel I'll convey   
D            A             D          E7
 Some inner truth or vast reflection  
A               E          F#m C#7
 But I've said nothing so far   
D           A                 D          E7    E
 And I can keep it up for as long as it takes 
A              E              F#m C#7
 And it don't matter who you are   
D        A                 D                 E7    
 If I'm doing my job it's your resolve that breaks


[Chorus]
            A    E          F#m  C#7 D
Because the hook brings you back    
        A              D   E7
I ain't tellin' you no lie  
A        E7     E   F#m  C#7 D
The hook brings you back    
   A            D    E7
On that you can rely  


[Verse]
A          E         F#m   C#7
 There is something amiss   
D      A     D         E A
 I am being insincere  
          E          F#m        C#7 
In fact I don't mean    any of this
      D    A                    D    E7 A
Still  my confession draws you near   
               E       F#m  
To confuse the issue I refer
C#7 D          A           D    E   A
To   familiar heroes from long ago 
              E                F#m C#7
No matter how much Peter loved her   
D               A             D    E7
 What made the Pan refuse to grow  


[Chorus]
         A    E          F#m  C#7 D
Was that hook brings you back    
        A           D  E7 
I ain't tellin' you no lie
A        E          F#m  C#7 D
The hook brings you back    
   A            D   
On that you can rely


[Solo]
E7 A E F#m C#7 C#m D A
              
D E A E F#m C#m C#7 D
             
A D E7 A E F#m C#7 D
            
A D E E7 A E F#m C#7
            
D A D E7
    


[Verse]
A                                   B7                 A             
Suck it in suck it in suck it in if you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn
                                     C#7                   D  
Make a desperate move or else you'll win and then begin to see
                             A7                 
What you're doing to me this MTV is not for free
     D                        E                             A   
It's so PC it's killing me so desperately I sing to thee of love
         E                                  F#m         
Sure but also of rage and hate and pain and fear of self
C#7                                    D    
And I can't keep these feelings on the shelf
           A                     
I've tried well no in fact I lied
      D                    E7                                
Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside
   A                  E                                                
To hide or slide I'll do as I'll decide and let it ride until I've died
         C#7                         
And only then shall I abide this tide
   D                      A                      
Of catchy little tunes of hip three minute diddys
        D                     
I wanna bust all your balloons
        E                           A     
I wanna burn all your cities to the ground
             E                             F#m          
I've found I will not mess around unless I play then hey
  C#7                            D  
I will go on all day hear what I say
                               A                  
I have a prayer to pray that's really all this was
             D                            
And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck
  E7                        
I don't rely on luck because


[Chorus]
    A    E          F#m  C#7 A D
The hook brings you back     
        A              D  
I ain't tellin' you no lie
E E7 A   E F#m 
   The  hook
C#7 D      A   A7      
On   that you can rely
