Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Throw the dog a bone I'll take it if I have to

Go real fast like there's somewhere we can get to

What's the use of standing right there on the edge

 If there ain't nowhere to fall

What's the use of hanging on tight to the phone

 If nobody might call

Desperation, there's danger in frustration

 Complicated words slipping off of your tongue

 And ain't one of them the truth

 I'm still desperate for you

Tell it like a lie, live it like a movie

Give a heart away like it ain't nothing to me

What's the use of making all the plans that we made

If you weren't gonna go

What's the use of slapping on a smile for a face

If your eyes don't wanna show

Desperation, there's danger in frustration

 Complicated words slipping off of your tongue

 And ain't one of them the truth

 I'm still desperate for you

Well it's too damn bad you didn't have a chance

 To make me your best friend

 You were too caught up in giving too much up

 And not doing what you should have been

Desperation, there's danger in frustration

 Complicated words slipping off of your tongue

 And ain't one of them the truth

 I'm still desperate for you
