Don't Wanna Talk Acoustic - Brendan Benson
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: JK
Tuning: Standard
I noticed this wasn't tabbed and its one of my favourites of the latest album. Enjoy!
Intro/Verse/Outro (barre chords)
C Em Am F
Chorus (barre chords)
Am C G D x 2 end with an E on the third run
Middle (open chords)
Am F#/Am G D E x3**
*The F#/Am is just a passing chord walking to the G.
**The 3rd run through has a half time feel
Thats it! Here are the lyrics
C Em Am F C
You can't let it go, you won't stay away
Em Am F C
You don't wanna know that we're caught in the sway
Em Am F C
So this is goodbye, and that is the door
Em Am F
I don't wanna try with you anymore, yeah
Am C G D
Don't wanna talk now, don't wanna know why
Am C G D
You say you're lonely, well, baby, so am I
Am C G D
Don't wanna hear about it, don't want you coming round
Am C G D E
You wanna make me weak, you wanna beat me down
C Em Am F
La, la, la, don't wanna talk about it
C Em Am F
La, la, you go on and on and on about it
(Same pattern for the next verse and chorus)
You don't seem to see, it just doesn't stick
You're proving to be a hard habit to kick
Addicted to you, and I can't get enough
So what can we do when you make it so tough
Don't wanna talk now, don't wanna know why
You say you're lonely, well, baby, so am I
Don't wanna hear about it, just wanna tune you out
You wanna make me scream, you wanna make me shout
MIddle
E Am F#/Am G D
You wanna make me shout
E
Make me shout...
I hear you loud and clear, but now I fear this ear I'm lending
Is falling off, and all is lost and it seems never ending
You're tightening your grip, while my mind goes slack
A crack of the whip makes me only bite back
I love you so much and I don't wanna leave
You're soft to the touch, and hard to believe
La, la, la, don't wanna talk about it
La, la, you go on and on and on about it
La, la, la, don't wanna talk about it
La, la, you go on and on and on about it
I hear you loud and clear, but now I fear this ear I'm lending
Is falling off, and all is lost and it seems never ending
