[Bridge 1]
[G]Suck it in, suck it in, suck it in
If you're [D]Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn
[Em]Make a desperate move or else you'll win[B]
And then begin to [C]see
What you're doing to me
This [G]M TV is not for free
It's [C]so PC it's killing me
So [D]desperately I sing to thee of [G]love
Sure but [D]also rage and hate
and pain and [Em]fear of self
And [B]I can't keep these feeling on the s[C]helf
I've tried, well [G]no, in fact I lied
Could [C]be financial suicide
but [D]I've got too much pride inside
To [G]hide or slide
I'll [D]do as I'll decide and let it [Em]ride until I've died
And only [B]then shall I abide by this tide
Of [C]catchy little tunes
Of [G]hip three minute diddies
I wanna [C]bust all your balloons
I wanna [D]burn of all your cities to the [G]ground
But I've found, I [D]will not mess around
Unless I [Em]play then hey
I [B]will go on all day
Hear what I [C]say
I have a prayer to pray
That's [G]really all this was
And when I'm [C]feeling stuck and need a buck
I [D]don't rely on luck

[Chorus 3]
Because [G]the hook [D]brings you [Em]back[B]
[C]I ain't tel[G]lin' you no lie[C][D]
The [G]hook[D][Em][B]
[C]On tha[G]t you can rely[C][D][G]
