Capo on 3rd fret

Verse 1:
FF          C majorC
If I'm beating every hand away
     FF
No one stays
      A minorAm
I've got so cautious
FF            C majorC
And now I trip on every move I make
      FF
Let one play
      A minorAm
To be that careless

Bridge:
      C majorC
With every kiss from a friend
     FF        A minorAm
With everything I pretend... not to feel
   C majorC
A minorAm I too high? A minorAm I too proud?
    FF       A minorAm
Is the music too loud... for me to hear?

Chorus 1:
FF    G+G
Now I go out
     A minorAm
But every beat is a violent noise
FF    G+G
Dries my eye
      A minorAm
With every beat comes a violent noise
FF      G+G
The melody sung
A minorAm
And I don't know the voice
FF    G+G
Now I go out
     A minorAm
But every beat is a violent noise

Solo:
FF C majorC G+G A minorAm

Verse 2:
            FF
You've been staying out late
           C majorC
Trying your best to escape
FF                  A minorAm
I hope you find what you're looking for
         FF
Let a moment take place
        C majorC
Without running away
FF
I hope you silence the noise

Solo:
FF C majorC G+G A minorAm

Bridge:
      FF
How could eyes this wide
        A minorAm
Lose sight of a world outside?
        G+G
I've looked away, cowardice
      FF
With every kiss from a friend
              A minorAm
With everything I pretend... not to feel
     G+G
A minorAm I too high? A minorAm I too proud?

Is the music too loud... for me to hear?

Chorus 2:
FF    G+G
Now I go out
     A minorAm
But every beat is a violent noise
FF    G+G
Dries my eye
     A minorAm
With every beat comes a violent noise
FF     G+G
The melody sung
A minorAm
And I don't know the voice
FF    G+G
Now I go out
     A minorAm
But every beat is a violent noise
