Blues Traveler - Hook2 guitar chord

"The Hook" by Blues Traveler

from the album Four

A          E             F#m   C#

It doesn't matter what I say

D          A             D   E

So long as I sing with inflection

A              E                 F#m   C#

That makes you feel that I'll convey

D          A               D   E

Some inner truth of vast reflection

A             E          F#m    C#

But I've said nothing so far

D              A        D          E

And I can keep it up as long as it takes

A            E              F#m    C#

And it don't matter who you are

D       A                D                      E  

If I'm doing my job then it's your resolve that breaks

            A    E          F#m     C#

Because the hook brings you back

D       A              D     E

I ain't tellin' you no lie

    A    E          F#m    C#

The hook brings you back  

D  A            D      E

On that you can rely

There is something amiss

I am being insincere

In fact I don't mean any of this

Still my confession draws you near

To confess the issue I refer

To familiar heroes from long ago

No matter how much Peter loved her

What made the Pan refuse to grow

Was that the hook brings you back

I ain't tellin' you no lie

The hook brings you back  

On that you can rely

--Popper's Harmonica Solo--

Suck it in suck it in suck it in

If you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn

Make a desperate move or else you'll win

And then begin

To see

What you're doing to me this MTV is not for free

It's so PC it's killing me

So desperately I'll sing to thee

Of love

Sure but also rage and hate and pain and fear of self

And I can't keep these feelings on the shelf

I've tried well no in fact I've lied

Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside

To hide or slide

I'll do as I decide and let it ride until I've died  

And only then shall I abide this tide

Oc catchy little tunes

Of hip three minute ditties

I wanna bust all your balloons  

I wanna burn all of youre cities

To the ground I've found

I will not mess around

Unless I play then hey

I will go on all day hear what I say

I have a prayer to pray

That's really all this was

And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck  

I don't rely on luck because...

The hook brings you back

I ain't tellin' you no lie

The hook brings you back  

On that you can rely
