[Verse 1]
AIt doesn't Ematter what I F#m7say C#7
DSo long as AI sing with inDflecEtion
AThat makes you Efeel that I'll conF#m7vey C#7
DSome inner Atruth of vast reDflecEtion
ABut I've said Enothing so F#m7far C#7
DAnd I can keep Ait up as Dlong as it Etakes
AAnd it don't Ematter who you F#m7are C#7
DIf I'm dAoing my job then Dit's your resolve that Ebreaks
[Chorus] (open chords)
Because the Ahook Ebrings you F#m7back C#7
DI ain't Atellin' you no Dlie E
The Ahook Ebrings you F#m7back C#7
DOn tAhat you can rDely E
[Verse 2]
AThere is Esomething F#m7amiss C#7
DI am Abeing insincDere E
AIn fact I Edon't mean F#m7any of this C#7
DStill my confAession draws you Dnear E
ATo confuse the iEssue I reF#m7fer C#7
DTo familiar hAeroes from Dlong agoE
ANo matter how Emuch Peter lF#m7oved her C#7
DWhat made the APan refuse to Dgrow E
[Chorus] (open chords)
Was that the hAook Ebrings you F#m7back C#7
DI ain't Atellin' you no lDie E
The Ahook Ebrings you F#m7back C#7
DOn Athat you can Drely A

[Verse 3] (vocals kind of rapped)
ASuck it in suck it in suck it in If you're Rin Tin Tin or EAnne Boleyn
F#m7Make a desperate move or else you'll win
C#7And then begin to
DSee What you're doing to me this AMTV is not for free
DIt's so PC it's killing me
ESo desperately I'll sing to thee of
Alove. Sure but aElso rage and hate and pain and F#m7fear of self And C#7I can't keep these feelings on the
Dshelf. I've tried, wellA, no in fact I've lied
DCould be financial suicide but IE've got too much pride inside to
Ahide or slide EI'll do as I decide and F#m7let it ride until I've died, And only C#7then shall I abide
this Dtide of catchy little tunes
Or hAip three minute ditties
I wanna Dbust all your balloons
I wanna Eburn all of your cities
ATo the ground I've found
EI will not mess around
Unless I F#m7play then hey
I C#7will go on all day hear what I
Dsay I have a prayer to pray
AThat's really all this was
And when I'm Dfeeling stuck and need a buck I dEon't rely on luck because...
[Chorus]
The Ahook Ebrings you F#m7back C#7
DI ain't Atellin' you no Dlie E
The Ahook Ebrings you F#m7back C#7
DOn Athat you can Drely E
