AEF#mC#m It doesn't matter what I say DADE So long as I sing with inflection AEF#mC#m That makes you feel that I'll convey DADE Some inner truth of vast reflection AEF#mC#m But I've said nothing so far DADE And I can keep it up as long as it takes AEF#mC#m And it don't matter who you are DADE If I'm doing my job then it's your resolve that breaks
[Chorus]
AEF#mC#m Because the hook brings you back DADE I ain't tellin' you no lie AEF#mC#m The hook brings you back DADE On that you can rely
[Verse 2]
AEF#mC#m There is something amiss DADE I am being insincere AEF#mC#m In fact I don't mean any of this DADE Still my confession draws you near AEF#mC#m To confuse the issue I refer DADE To familiar heroes from long ago AEF#mC#m No matter how much Peter loved her DADE What made the Pan refuse to grow
[Chorus]
AEF#mC#m Was that the hook brings you back DADE I ain't tellin' you no lie AEF#mC#m The hook brings you back DADA On that you can rely

AE Suck it in suck it in suck it in If you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn F#m Make a desperate move or else you'll win C#m And then begin to DA 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'll sing to thee of
AEF#mC#m love Sure but also rage and hate and pain and fear of self And I can't keep these feelings on the DA shelf I've tried well no in fact I've lied
DE Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside to
AEF#m hide or slide I'll do as I decide and let it ride until I've died C#m And only then shall I abide D this tide of catchy little tunes A Or hip three minute ditties D I wanna bust all your balloons E I wanna burn all of your cities
A To the ground I've found E I will not mess around F#m Unless I play then hey C#m I will go on all day hear what I D say I have a prayer to pray A That's really all this was DE And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck I don't rely on luck because
[Chorus]
AEF#mC#m The hook brings you back DADE I ain't tellin' you no lie AEF#mC#m The hook brings you back DADE On that you can rely
