Blues Traveler - Hook

 

Intro: A E F#m C# D A D E (2x)

 

A             E             F#m  C#

  It doesn't matter what I say

D            A               D   E

  So long as I sing with inflection

 

A                 E           F#m       C#

  That makes you feel that I'll  convey

D              A               D   E

  Some inner truth or vast reflection

 

A                E            F#m  C#

  But I've said nothing so fa....r

D            A                 D          E

  And I can keep it up for as long as it takes

 

A               E             F#m  C#

  And it don't matter who you are

D         A                      D                  E

  If I'm doing my job then it's your resolve that breaks

 

Refrão:

             A     E         F#m  C#

Because the hook brings you back

D          A              D  E

  I ain't tellin' you no li....e

     A     E         F#m  C#

The hook brings you back

D      A             D  E

  On that you can rely

 

A           E          F#m  C#

  There is something amiss

D       A          D   E

  I am being insincere

 

A            E          F#m       C#

  In fact I don't mean a..ny of this

D              A                 D   E

  Still my confession draws you ne....ar

 

A                E         F#m   C#

  To confuse the issue I re..fer

D              A           D       E

  To familiar heroes from long a ago

 

A                E              F#m  C#

  No matter how much Peter loved her

D                A              D  E

  What made the Pan refuse to grow

 

(Repete refrão)

 

(Solo) A E F#m C# D A D E (4x)

 

A

  Suck it in suck it in suck it in

           E

If you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn

F#m                                      C#

   Make a desperate move or else you'll win

And then begin

    D                               A

To see what you're doing to me this MTV is not for free

      D

It's so PC it's killing me

    E

So desperately I sing to thee

    A

Of love

         E                                F#m

Sure but also rage and hate and pain and fear of self

    C#                                  D

And I can't keep these feeling on the shelf

                 A

I've tried well no in fact I lied

       D                           E

Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside

    A

To hide or slide

      E                            F#m

I'll do as I'll decide and let it ride till until I've died

             C#

And only then shall I abide by this tide

    D

Of catchy little tunes

    A

Of hip three minute diddys

         D

I wanna bust all your ballons

         E                               A

I wanna burn of all your cities to the ground

But I've found

        E

I will not mess around

           F#m

Unless I play then hey

   C#

I will go on all day

             D

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

   E

I don't rely on luck because

 

(Repete refrão) A
