(Capo at 2) Intro:
D A D Dsus4 D Bm Gsus4
D A D Dsus4 D Bm Gsus4
VERSE 1
Someone called me from across the ocean
to find a weak link in my devotion
They can shoot hot knives a' down the line
I just slam it down every time
CHORUS 1
F#m G D
I got the telephone jammed in my ear
They're still talking but I don't hear
F#m G D
Oh don't defend when my heart starts to attack
Bm7 G A D
we can face the danger baby no holding back
D A D / D D A G D
there's no holding back
D A D / D D A D
VERSE 2
I cam't swear we'll never get caught
I got scars all over my pass-port
but we can't give in to every whim and fancy
coming to crunches is always chancey
CHORUS 2
F#m G D
I get it all being rammed down my ear
I'm still talking but I don't hear
F#m G D
Oh don't defend when my heart starts to attack
Bm7 G A D
we can face the danger baby no holding back
D A D / D D A G D
and there's no holding back
D A D / D D A D
BRIDGE
When I tell the truth it's like pulling a tooth
I don't know what I've let myself in for
My insides are black from years of being slack
D G A D
but we can face the danger and we won't hold back
D A D Dsus4 D Bm Gsus4
D A D Dsus4 D Bm Gm
CHORUS 3
F#m G D
I get it all being rammed down my ear
I'm still shaking but not with fear
F#m G D
Oh don't defend when my heart starts to attack
Bm7 G A
we can face the danger
Bm7 G A
we can face the danger
and we won't hold back
D A D / D D A G D
baby there's no holding back
D A D / D D A G D
baby there's no holding back
Repeat and ad lib on chords to fade
