CAPO 3
Intro: G D Em C (3x)
whoa whoa....
G D Em
Days all bleed into one another
C
lately
G D
my brain is strained
Em
and I got no direction
C
maybe
Em C
we could pick up all the pieces off the ground
G D
to this puzzle overtakin' people down down down
G D
now you'd better break all the windows
Em
hotwire my heart
C
you are the cables
G
when I fall apart
D
and I'm goin' nowhere
Em
if this battery dies
C
in a blink of an eye
G
we'll be bending time
D Em C
whoa whoa....
G D Em
and I've been drained from all of your affection
C
lately
G D Em
but I can't complain you're the queen of all deception
C
maybe
Em C
we should look at all these faces in the crowd
G D
when I smile until your curtain is comin' down down down
G D
you'd better break all the windows
Em
hotwire my heart
C
you are the cables
G
when I fall apart
D
and I'm goin' nowhere
Em
if this battery dies
C
in a blink of an eye
G
we'll be bending time
G D
you'd better break all the windows
Em
hotwire my heart
C
you are the cables
G
when I fall apart
D
and I'm goin' nowhere
Em
if this battery dies
C
in a blink of an eye
G
we'll be bending time
D
this building's at capacity
Em C
this bomb's a ticking tragedy
G D
and I've got no philosophy
Em C
just pleading for this scenery to change
D
enough for me to say
G D
you'd better break all the windows
Em
hotwire my heart
C
you are the cables
G
when I fall apart
D
and I'm goin' nowhere
Em
if this battery dies
C
in a blink of an eye
G
we'll be bending time
G D
you'd better break all the windows
Em
hotwire my heart
C
you are the cables
G
when I fall apart
D
and I'm goin' nowhere
Em
if this battery dies
C
in a blink of an eye
G
we'll be bending time
D Em C G D Em C
whoa whoa....
Em C
in the blink of an eye
G
we'll be bending time
C
in the blink of an eye
Em
we're gonna be wondering why
C D
in the blink of an eye
G - let ring
we'll be bending time.
