Babble on

Guardian

Tom: A

D			     Dadd9
What was that crack I made?  Swung a hammer wrapped in suede
Aadd9	A    Aadd9	  A       Aadd9               A     Aadd9  A
Like a    lick from a lunatic beatnick,  knock you senseless as I babble on
D			     Dadd9
I strike between the lines,  hissing words in serpentine
Aadd9	A  Aadd9	  A   Aadd9         A   Aadd9	   A
Back----biter with an appetite,  I coil and rattle, then I babble on

BRIDGE

C	      D	           A              Dadd9
Everytime I add a line, I wish I could subtract
C
Too late too take it back

D		          Dadd9
Conversations in veneer,  Sandem down theyre insincere
Aadd9	A   Aadd9	         A   Aadd9          A   Aadd9      A
Off     guard, better check the cue card,  Got ghostwriters for my babble on
D		  Dadd9
So I communicate, Intending to humiliate
Aadd9   A   Aadd9	       A   Aadd9          A   Aadd9	 A
On      attack with a cardiac comeback, You take shelter, I take babble on


BRIDGE


CHORUS
E                 D       Dadd9     A
And if talk is cheap, the price is high
	       D   Dadd9    E
When I let another arrow   fly
E             D       Dadd9    A
Better to be seen and never   heard
	       D       Dadd9   E
Than to babble on with every  word


PLAY CHORDS FROM ALL OF VERSE

D			     Dadd9
What was that crack I made?  File a claim with medicaid
Aadd9   A   Aadd9	  A   Aadd9          A   Aadd9      A
All my rumors spread like tumors, tale and tattle, rant and rattle on
D	                Dadd9
Ugly as the sun it is,  Sold out to the slander biz
Aadd9   A   Aadd9	   A   Aadd9               A   Aadd9    A
Gotta   keep the tongue in line, Even fools seems wiser off the babble on

BRIDGE

CHORUS

E               D          Dadd9   A                  D          Dadd9    E
And if talk is cheap, then why the thrill in an idle tongue that fires at will?
E            D         Dadd9   A                    D      Dadd9  A
Better to be silent and be   strong, Than to let my babble babble on
A              D      Dadd9  A                  Dsus
Than to let my babble babble on, than to babble on
