Capo on 3rd fret

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

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

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

Solo:
F C G Am

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

Solo:
F C G Am

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

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

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