Take The Sting Out

A D D D A A A A

[Verse]
    A         A        
Oh, lately we ain't been 
  D      D
communicating
A    A        D     D      E   
  beyond what needs to be said 
    E  D D
and done
A     F#m   F#m        D
Short sharp words like arrows
A    A          A     A      E
that pierce our skin let the 
         E E E
poison run
       F#m        F#m
You're showing no emotion,
        A          A     Dm      
I don't think it's noble to be 
    Dm D D
proud
       A          F#m           D
Yes we take it for granted that 
            D
we love each other,
  A      A       D       D      
Can't bring ourselves to say it 
E       E A A
out loud

[Chorus]
  Dm   Dm B  B   D D    E     
I hope we find a way to take 
   E      A A D D A A  A
the sting out.

[Verse]
A                 D              
Yesterday we were driving through
    D      D
 an echoed silence
Continues after the ad
A  A       D       D     E  E D D
 I had to turn the radio on
         A             A           
Standing frozen on the edge of the 
D            D
rocks looking down
A A       A     A      E      
  Both of us afraid to take a 
E   D D
dive
    F#m              F#m F#m F#m
And when I find the drive
   A         A       Dm       Dm 
To break the surface nice and 
  D D
slow
          A       F#m        D    
Well the fall was clumsy and I get 
 D
out
A   A        D         D       
How come you would not through 
E    E    A A
me a robe?

[Chorus]
  Dm   Dm B B   D D         E
I hope we help each other, 
         E     A A D D A A  A
help each other go.

[Interlude]
   B     B    Bm  E
So don't feel hopeless
A    F#      F#   F#
When there's smoke
         G G F# F#
There is fire,
         G G B B
There is fire

[Solo]
E E E E

[Verse]
          A       A           D  
I want to talk to you without 
     D
making excuses
A    A            A      A      
  Or putting on a mask because I
 E      E    D D
 feel ashamed
              A       A           
I want you to hear me out, now 
    D        D
make a judgment call
A     A        A       A       
  You know you used to be that 
E             E   D D
kind of friend
   F#m       F#m   F#m  F#m
So show me some emotion
    A       A         Dm       Dm
Oh, we both know it's been too 
  D D
long

[Chorus]
  Dm   Dm B    B   D        D 
I hope we find the connection 
E   E        A A D D
that made us strong.
      Dm   Dm B    B   D        
Yes I hope we find the 
D E   E        A A D D A A  A
connection that made us strong.
