[Verse 1]
E
I was born on the fourth of July
C#m B A
Fireworks screaming in cerulean skies
C#m B
Claimed by the cannon blast
A B C#m
Seemed like my heart always beat too fast
B A
Sister I have seen my share
B C#m B
Ain't nothing you can say to keep the kink from my stare
[Verse 2]
E
If I start coming up short
C#m B A
I twist my voice until I reach the note
C#m
We'll keep the medicine close
A B C#m
Now and then double up the dose
B A
Well maybe reckless hearts come in pairs
B C#m B
Maybe that's the only shake we'll ever get to call fair
[Chorus]
A E B
I will never speak your name
A E B A
I will never speak your name if it's not out of love again
A E B
I will never speak your name
A E B A
I will never speak your name if it's not out of love again
[Instrumental over verse chords]
[Verse 3]
E
Baby I wanna be kind
C#m B A
But I've been out here running ragged, staggering blind
C#m B
And every time I get close
A B C#m
I hold my breath until the seams all show
B A
But you call my paranoid heart
B C#m B
For once in my life I let down my guard
[Chorus]
A E B
I will never speak your name
A E B A
I will never speak your name if it's not out of love again
A E B
I will never speak your name
A E B A
I will never speak your name if it's not out of love again
