Hook

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

 [Verse] 
 C          G             Am   E
 It doesn't matter what I say
 F          C             F   G
 So long as I sing with inflection
 C              G                 Am   E

 F          C               F   G
 Some inner truth of vast reflection

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