[N] [D#]
We'd like to thank you for checking out the X [D] Sessions thanks to our good friends at [D#] Shocktop [F#] and Domino's.
They make [N] pizza.
[A]
[F#m]
[A] You'll never have to hear the word no.
If you keep all your friends on the payroll.
[F#m]
The non-disclosure pages sign.
Your secret safe between those lines.
[A]
The scaffolding will cheer and console you.
But remember what your mother told [F#m] you.
Good help is so hard to find.
People who are so refined.
[B] You're trying [Bm] to turn into the skin.
In this never ending [F#m] grid.
There's a long [E] slow [D]
fade.
[F#m] To a darkened stage.
[F#] And I hear [E] you [D] say.
[F#m]
Only a fool gives it away.
[Bm] Only a fool would give.
Only a fool [D] gives it away.
[F#m] [A] I know you want to stake out your claim.
High above the city from where [F#m] you came.
But don't you know the air is so thin.
It starves the brain of oxygen.
[A] I know it's such a dangerous place.
For there are more ascensions than there is [F#m] space.
Angels cause an accident.
The camera phones will document.
[Bm] But if I start to levitate.
Pull me down with all your [F#m] weight.
There's a long [E] slow [D] fade.
[F#m] To a darkened [D] stage.
And I [F#m] hear you [D] say.
[F#m] Only a fool gives it away.
Only [Bm] a fool would give.
Only a fool gives [F#m] it away.
[A]
[F#m]
[Bm]
You're trying to turn into the skin.
In this never ending [F#m] grid.
[Bm]
But you should know it's not ideal.
With all those hands upon the [F#m] wheel.
There's a long slow [D] fade.
[F#m]
To a darkened [D] stage.
And [F#] I hear you [F#m] say.
Only a fool gives it away.
There's a long slow fade.
To a darkened [D] stage.
[F#m] And I hear [E] you say.
[F#m]
Only a fool gives it away.
Only a [Bm] fool would give.
[F#m] Only a fool [Bm] would give.
Only a fool [F#m] gives this away.
[A] [F#]
Thank you.
