Take The Sting Out

A D D D A A A A

[Verse]
    A         A          D      D
Oh, lately we ain't been communicating
A    A        D     D      E       E  D D
  beyond what needs to be said and done
A     F#m   F#m        D
Short sharp words like arrows
A    A          A     A      E         E E E
that pierce our skin let the poison run
       F#m        F#m
You're showing no emotion,
        A          A     Dm          Dm D D
I don't think it's noble to be proud
       A          F#m           D            D
Yes we take it for granted that we love each other,
  A      A       D       D      E       E A A
Can't bring ourselves to say it out loud

[Chorus]
  Dm   Dm B  B   D D    E        E      A A D D A A  A
I hope we find a way to take the sting out.

[Verse]
A                 D                  D      D
Yesterday we were driving through an echoed silence
A  A       D       D     E  E D D
 I had to turn the radio on
         A             A           D            D
Standing frozen on the edge of the rocks looking down
A A       A     A      E      E   D D
  Both of us afraid to take a dive
    F#m              F#m F#m F#m
And when I find the drive
   A         A       Dm       Dm   D D
To break the surface nice and slow
          A       F#m        D     D
Well the fall was clumsy and I get out
A   A        D         D       E    E    A A
How come you would not through me a robe?

[Chorus]
  Dm   Dm B B   D D         E         E     A A D D A A  A
I hope we help each other, help each other go.

[Interlude]
   B     B    Bm  E
So don't feel hopeless
A    F#      F#   F#
When there's smoke
         G G F# F#
There is fire,
         G G B B
There is fire

[Solo]
E E E E

[Verse]
          A       A           D       D
I want to talk to you without making excuses
A    A            A      A       E      E    D D
  Or putting on a mask because I feel ashamed
              A       A               D        D
I want you to hear me out, now make a judgment call
A     A        A       A       E             E   D D
  You know you used to be that kind of friend
   F#m       F#m   F#m  F#m
So show me some emotion
    A       A         Dm       Dm  D D
Oh, we both know it's been too long

[Chorus]
  Dm   Dm B    B   D        D E   E        A A D D
I hope we find the connection that made us strong.
      Dm   Dm B    B   D        D E   E        A A D D A A  A
Yes I hope we find the connection that made us strong.
