Intro: B--A--G#m--G--B--C#m--B/Eb--G--

B-A-E-- x2

Verse 1:
[B] Say something clever
If you?re [A]conscious still[C#m]
Cause [B]You know hearing bad news
Gives me [A]such a special [C#m]thrill
And [B]I?m not here to [A]save you
Watch your [E]back or rear[F#]range you
I don?t [G#m]know[A] even [E]so
I wouldn?t [F#]take
on this Oh [G#m]no
And I [F#]don?t
know how you can

Chorus 1:
[B]wear [A]me [E]down
In the blink of an [B]eye[A][E]
If I could just
[B]hold [A]my [E]ground
For a tenth of the [B]time[A][E]

Verse 2:
[B] Make me an offer
I can?t [A]really use[C#m]
A [B]one time factory
clearance that
I [A]can?t refuse[C#m]
And [B]I?m not here
to [A]save you
Watch your [E]back
or rear[F#]range you
And [B]nothing ever [A]changes
You?re still [E]cynical
and dan[F#]gerous
I don?t [G#m]know[A] even [E]so
I wouldn?t [F#]take
on this Oh [G#m]no
And I [F#]don?t
know how you can

(Repeat Chorus 1)

Bridge:
[G#m] You never get the point
so [A]what's the use?
[E] I'd never [B]take that tone
of [A]voice with you
[G#m] And we both know that
that's not [A]really true
It's not [C#m]really true
so [F#m]what's the use

Breakdown: B-A-E-- x2

Verse 3: Basslines B only
And [B]no ones [A]going to [E]save you
Cause [B]they can't [A]rear[E]range you
And [B]nothing [A]ever [E]changes
You're [B]cyni[A]cal and [E]dangerous

(Repeat Chorus 1)

Chorus 2:
So go ahead [B]wear [C#m]me [E]down
I'm [B]lost [C#m]not [E]found
You got me so
[B]tied [C#m]and [E]bound
I'm [B]not [C#m]quite [E]sound
You wearing me down
B(hold)
Quit wearing me down
