A E D


[Verse]

A                         E               D
Throw the dog a bone I'll take it if I have to
A                        E                   D
Go real fast like there's somewhere we can get to
                                  
What's the use of standing right there on the edge
         E
If there ain't nowhere to fall
D
What's the use of hanging on tight to the phone
   E
If nobody might call


[Chorus]

A E   D                A    E       D
Desperation, there's danger in frustration
                           E           
Complicated words slipping off of your tongue
     A       E        D
And ain't one of them the truth
     A     E            D   
I'm still desperate for you


[Verse]

A                     E                 D
Tell it like a lie, live it like a movie
A                     E                     D
Give a heart away like it ain't nothing to me 

What's the use of making all the plans that we made
E
If you weren't gonna go
D
What's the use of slapping on a smile for a face
E
If your eyes don't wanna show


[Chorus]

A E   D                A    E       D
Desperation, there's danger in frustration
                            E   
Complicated words slipping off of your tongue
      A       E        D
And ain't one of them the truth
     A        E         D
I'm still desperate for you


[Bridge]

E             
Well it's too damn bad you didn't have a chance
   D
To make me your best friend
         E
You were too caught up in giving too much up
        D                             D                   
And not doing what you should have been


[Chorus]

A E   D                A    E       D
Desperation, there's danger in frustration
                           E           
Complicated words slipping off of your tongue
     A       E        D
And ain't one of them the truth
     A     E            D
I'm still desperate for you
