Riff 1:
Riff 2:
Riff 3:
Riff 4:
Verse 1:
(Riff 1)
(Riff 1)
You're as tight as a hunter's trap
Hidden well
What are you concealing
(Riff 1)
Poker face carved in stone
Almost friends but all alone
Why do you hide?
Chorus:
(Riff 2 - until end of chorus)
Say something, say something, anything
I've shown you everything
Give me a sign
Say something, say something, anything
Your silence is deafening
Pay me unkind
Verse 2:
(Riff 1)
Take a drug to set you free
Strange fruit from a forbidden tree
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
Need a new life
*Chorus (Riff 3 after each line)
Break (drum solo with Riff 2 and Riff 4)
(Riff 2)
Say something, say something, anything
I've shown you everything
Give me a sign
I'm open, wide open, wondering
Have you swallowed everything
Pay me unkind
