[Verse 1]
NC A
You put salt in the wound
D A
And a kiss on my cheek
Bm F#m
You butter me up
D A
And you sit down to eat
D A
You add insult to injury
D A
You say you believe in me
Bm F#m
But you haven’t decided
D A
About taking or leaving me
[Chorus]
G
But you take and you take
D A
Like silks up my sleeve
G D A
Tied corner to corner, never ending
G F#m
Trick after trick, I make the magic
E D A
And you unrelentingly ask for the secret
[Break]
A D A
[Verse 2]
A A
Neck full of mockingbirds
D A
All calling your name
Bm F#m
I tried to sing it all back
D A
Like I heard it, it don’t sound the same
D A
I’m gnashing my teeth
D A
Like a child of Cain
Bm F#m D A
If this is a prison I’m willing to buy my own chain
[Chorus]
G
But you take and you take
D A
Like silks up my sleeve
G D A
Tied corner to corner, never ending
G F#m
Trick after trick, I make the magic
E D A
And you unrelentingly ask for the secret
[Break]
A D A
[Bridge]
A G D
They say the hearts and minds are on your side
A G D
They say the finish line is in your sights
A G D
What they don’t say is what's on the other side
A G D
They say the hearts and minds are on your side
[Outro]
