Talking It To Death

[Verso 1]
 
Am 
Shouting words across a room, it's the closest that we'll get 
          Dm                              E              Am 
Words can seem to fill the gloom, but the heart is empty yet 
Am 
Know you wanna talk it out, go until we're out of breath 
        Dm                            E 
But the words go just so far, what we feel is what we are 
E                      Am 
Don't go talking it to death 
 


[Ponte]
 
Dm                 E 
We don't need more conversation 
C                  F 
Love don't need an explanation 
Dm             G7                  C   E 
Knew without a sound, you were the one 
      Dm                  E 
Let's just put the words away and play it 
C                      F 
From the heart, that's how we'll say it 
Bb            E                  Am 
Talking it to death won't get it done 
 


[Verso 2]
 
Am 
Got to act on what we feel and then let the feelings out 
        Dm                               E              Am 
Love is spoken with a glance, ain't that what it's all about 
Am 
Get to know you when we touch and a touch is never heard 
         Dm                              E 
Put your hand inside of mine, girl we've got so little time 
E                         Am 
Let's not waste it all on words 
 


[Ponte]
 
Dm                 E 
Words can bring on complications 
C                 F 
What you mean and why'd you say it 
Dm                G7               C   E 
Kind of thing you end up fighting about 
         Dm               E 
When the words are coming fast and heavy 
C                     F 
Thinking where's this gonna get me 
Bb              E               Am 
Not that I love you, but let me out 
 


[Verso 3]
 
Am 
I just wanna feel you close, close is worth a thousand words 
            Dm                              E            Am 
Don't think shouting 'cross a room makes it anything but worse 
Am 
It's not where we wanna go, but that's where it's gonna lead 
           Dm 
If there's still some feeling left, let's not talk it all to death 
      E               Am 
Baby, life is what we need
