Watch your reaction and wait 'til you say

Who will give whom
        G6                    G5
The bigger surprise?

Watch how your fingers burn over the keys

So sure what you do
   Dsus4            D
I haven't a clue

F/C                   C
How you resent
        Am             Asus4
The lovers you need

It hurts when they bleed
