Hook

[Verse 1]
 G          D             Em   B
 It doesn't matter what I say
 C          G             C   D
 So long as I sing with inflection
 G              D                 Em   B
 That makes you feel that I'll convey
 C          G               C   D
 Some inner truth of vast reflection
 G             D          Em    B
 But I've said nothing so far
 C              G        C          D
 And I can keep it up as long as it takes
 G            D              Em    B
 And it don't matter who you are
 C       G                C                      D
 If I'm doing my job then it's your resolve that breaks
 
 [Chorus]
 (open chords)
             G    D          Em     B
 Because the hook brings you back
 C       G              C     D
 I ain't tellin' you no lie
     G    D          Em    B
 The hook brings you back
 C   G            C      D
 On that you can rely
 
 [Verse 2]
 G        D         Em   B
 There is something amiss
 C    G           C   D
 I am being insincere
 G         D          Em         B
 In fact I don't mean any of this
 C            G                C     D
 Still my confession draws you near
 G               D        Em    B
 To confuse the issue I refer
 C            G          C       D
 To familiar heroes from long ago
 G             D           Em      B
 No matter how much Peter loved her
 C             G             C     D
 What made the Pan refuse to grow
 
 [Chorus]
 (open chords)
               G   D          Em     B
 Was that the hook brings you back
 C       G               C   D
 I ain't tellin' you no lie
     G    D          Em    B
 The hook brings you back
 C  G            C      G
 On that you can rely

 [Verse] 
 G          D             Em   B
 It doesn't matter what I say
 C          G             C   D
 So long as I sing with inflection
 G              D                 Em   B

 C          G               C   D
 Some inner truth of vast reflection
 G             D          Em    B
 But I've said nothing so far
 C              G        C          D
 And I can keep it up as long as it takes
 G            D              Em    B
 And it don't matter who you are
 C       G                C                      D
 If I'm doing my job then it's your resolve that breaks
 
 [Verse 3]
 (vocals kind of rapped)
 G                                                          D
 Suck it in suck it in suck it in  If you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn
 Em
 Make a desperate move or else you'll win 
 B
 And then begin to
 
 C                                G 
 See What you're doing to me this MTV is not for free
 C
 It's so PC it's killing me
 D
 So desperately I'll sing to thee of
 
 G               D                              Em              B                      
 love. Sure but also rage and hate and pain and fear of self And I can't keep these feelings on the
 C                        G                             
 shelf.  I've tried well no in fact I've lied
 C                               D
 Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside to
 
 G              D                       Em                                   B      
 hide or slide  I'll do as I decide and let it ride until I've died, And only then shall I abide 
      C              
 this tide of catchy little tunes
     G
 Or hip three minute ditties
         C
 I wanna bust all your balloons
         D
 I wanna burn all of your cities
 
 G              
 To the ground I've found
 D                
 I will not mess around
          Em         
 Unless I play then hey
   B            
 I will go on all day  hear what I  
 C             
 say I have a prayer to pray
 G                         
 That's really all this was
              C                                D
 And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck I don't rely on luck because…
 
 [Chorus] 
     G    D          Em     B
 The hook brings you back
 C       G              C     D
 I ain't tellin' you no lie
     G    D          Em    B
 The hook brings you back
 C  G            C      D
 On that you can rely
