A THOUSAND WORDS
(Savage Garden)
intro: Gm/Bb/F/C/Gm/Bb/F/C
Gm Bb F
we stumble in a tangled web decaying friendships almost dead
C
and hide behind a mask of lies
Gm Bb F
we twist and turn and we avoid all hope of salvage now devoid
C
i see the truth inside your eyes
Gm Bb F C
so take all this noise into your brain and send it back again
Gm Bb F C
i’ll bear the cost shed my skin call you up and then
i’ll say the words out loud
Chorus:
Gm Bb
you could resurrect a thousand words
C F
to deceive me more and more
Gm Bb
a thousand words will give the reasons
C F
why i don’t need you anymore
solo: Gm/Bb/F/C
Gm Bb F
time manipulates your heart preconceptions torn apart
C
begin to doubt my state of mind
Gm Bb F
but i won’t go down on what i said i won’t retract convictions read
C
i may perplex but i’m not blind
Gm Bb F C
so take all this noise into your brain and send it back again
Gm Bb F C
i’ll bear the cost shed my skin call you up and then
i’ll say the words out loud
(Chorus)
Gm Bb F C
i’ll say the words out loud i’ll say a thousand words or more
Gm Bb
manipulation fabrication conversation annihilation
F C
i’ll say a thousand words or more
Gm Bb
damnation frustration elevation procreation
F C
i’ll say a thousand words or more
(Chorus)
