[No Intro]
[Verse]
|Em D |Cadd9 |Em D |Cadd9 |
-- -- - We've been testing you -- - and you failed
|Em D |Cadd9
-- - To see how long that you could sit with the
|Em D |Cadd9
Truth but you bailed -
And I don't Emthink you even recognize the Closs of control
And I don't Emthink you even see it in yourCself
See every Emone of us is countin' dice that Cwe didn't roll
And the Emloser is the last to ask for Chelp
[Chorus]
G--- Be afraid, be very afra-D/F#aid
D/F#- But do it anywa-C/Eay ---
C/E G |G |
- Do it anywa-ay --- ----
[Verse]
|Em D |Cadd9 |Em D |Cadd9 |
-- -- - The stage belongs to you - and you feel like a star
|Em D |Cadd9
You can bark and snap like a dog at the man
|Em D |Cadd9
Who just tuned your guitar ---
And I don't Emthink you even recognize the Ckid in the wings
And I don't Emthink you even see her in yourCself
She looks to Emyou for what to do with all her Cdelicate dreams
But you're too Emterrified to be of any Chelp
[Chorus]
||: G D/F#
--- Be afraid, be very afra-aid
D/F#- But do it anywa-C/Eay ---
C/E G |G :||
- Do it anywa-ay --- ----
[Bridge]
Em C |G |
We don't take requests, we won't shut up and sing ----
G-- You tell the Emtruth enough
C |D |D |
You'll find it rhymes with everythi----ng
[Verse]
|Em D |Cadd9 |Em D |Cadd9
-- -- - We've been testing you -- - and you failed
|Em D |Cadd9
To see how long that you could hold it in before you screamed
|Em D |Cadd9
But you only exhaled - ---
And I don't Emthink you even recognize the Csound of your voice
When it's Emblastin' through the speakers in the Csky
And if your Emwords add up to nothin' then you're Cmakin' a choice
To sing a Emcover when we need a battle Ccry
[Chorus]
||: G D/F#
--- Be afraid, be very afra-aid
D/F#- But do it anywa-C/Eay ---
C/E G |G |
- Do it anywa-ay --- ----
G--- Be afraid, be very afra-D/F#aid
D/F#- But do it anywa-C/Eay ---
C/E G |G :||
- Do it anywa-ay --- ----

Built on the good work in the chart by rawlsmd23.
FYI: My chord charts are not "tabs" (guides to replicating an artist's past performance). I don't claim
any of my charts show the "right" way to play a song. This chord chart represents my personal interpretation
of this song. And as such, it's not something I care to debate.
If you have another way to play this song, great. Please, post your own chart. We all benefit when someone
contributes.
Cheers!
