Verse 1:

(Riff 1)

(Riff 1)

C Am

You're as tight as a hunter's trap

F

Hidden well

C

What are you concealing

(Riff 1)

C Am

Poker face carved in stone

F

Almost friends but all alone

C

Why do you hide?

Chorus:

(Riff 2 - until end of chorus)

C Am

Say something, say something, anything

F

I've shown you everything

C

Give me a sign

C Am

Say something, say something, anything

F

Your silence is deafening

C

Pay me unkind

Verse 2:

(Riff 1)

C Am

Take a drug to set you free

F

Strange fruit from a forbidden tree

C

You've got to come down soon

(Riff 2)

C Am (Riff 3)

Whole lot of drug is what I need

F (Riff 3)

Need a change of scenery

C

Need a new life

*Chorus (Riff 3 after each line)

Break (drum solo with Riff 2 and Riff 4)

(Riff 2)

C Am

Say something, say something, anything

F

I've shown you everything

C

Give me a sign

C Am

I'm open, wide open, wondering

F

Have you swallowed everything

C

Pay me unkind
