[A] [Em] [G] [Am]
Why must [Ab] you record [Am] my phone calls?
[Ab] Apple X [Am]
said you've [Ab] been threatened [Am] by gas masks
It's [D]
you [C] that [E] makes me
[Am]
Heartbreak [Ab] allows young [Am]
men's conscience
They use their lives [Ab] to come and [Am] cry
To [Ab] see what the [Am]
future holds for them
[C] When they're in [G] [E] desperate need
Don't call me [A] heartbreak

Don't interrupt [Ab] while [Am] I'm talking
Or the conference [Ab] may turn your [Am] kicks off
And catch [Ab] 22
Says [Am] if I sing the truth
They [C] won't thank me [G] at all
[E]
[Am] Don't offer [Ab] us legal protection
They use their lives to come and cry
[C]
To see what the [Em] future holds for [C] them
[G] And we'll chase [E] the sun
When you're in love, don't [A] argue
