[Intro]
E C#m
[Verse 1]
E G# C#m
Hanging up, for all the times I never learnt enough
E G# C#m
To pack it up, pack it up, twist, turn and run from us
[Pre-Chorus]
A G#7
You tied me to an aeroplane that pulled me through the sky
C#m E
And there's something about the fall that makes me sure I won't survive
A G#7
And it's hard to free the noose that you wrapped around my mind
[Chorus]
A
Won't you back it up
E B
With that kind of curse you can't hang it up
B A
But words don't mean nothing, I'd give it up
E B
And love's never lost 'til you've had enough
B A
And I've got to get away because
E G#m A E
I'm still hanging on to every word you say
G# E C#m
[Verse 2]
E G# C#m G#
Hanging up, for all the times I never had the guts
E
But you won't let me down
G#
I'm spinning round above the ground
C#m
And I'm thunderstruck
[Pre-Chorus]
A G#7
I'm feeling like a champion, but my face is turning red
C#m E
And I'm trying to call it quits, and get to grips, and catch my breath
A G#7
But it's hard to free the noose that you wrapped around my neck
[Chorus]
A
Won't you back it up
E B
With that kind of curse you can't hang it up
B A
But words don't mean nothing, I'd give it up
E B
And love's never lost 'til you've had enough
B A
And I've got to get away because
E G#m A E E7
I'm still hanging on to every word you say
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
A
Won't you back it up
E B
With that kind of curse you can't hang it up
B E A
But words don't mean nothing, I'd give it up
E A B
And love's only lost when you've had enough
B A
And I've got to get away because
E G# A
I'm still hanging on to every word you
E A
I'm still hanging on to every word

I'm still hanging on to every word you say
