The Squeaky Wheel

	  		A 
There's my suitor, struggling to find his footing 
C             Dm           C           F     G 
Lost, awoken alone, after sleeping off inebriation 
A 
I forget that I've been holding my tongue for so long 
C             Dm       C               F        G  
Cause we had a run, so don your Sunday best and wake up 

Lead Guitar Riff/Interlude: A (x2) 

A 
You went missing, never mind the life I was wishing  
C                   Dm             C              F        G 
For cause you'd had enough, but at least you got enough to fake it 
A 
I'll keep smiling, optimistically denying  
C                 Dm            C               F        E  
What I feared the most that you disappeared and leave me wondering 


D                            A 
Was I just a playful pawn, a trophy you had won? 
D                                      A 
Someone who could lift you when you're low? 
D                          A 
Innocence to prey upon, or allies in the sun? 
D                                 A 
Heaven sent, or just hell bent on love? 


F        C       Bb       F    G    A  
Aaaaaaah Aaaaaaa Aaaaaah  Aaah ahhh Aaaah 


A 
Darling liar, always running through the brier 
C                      Dm              C           F        G 
What, the cuts aren't enough?  Just an aggravation you'd forget like 
A 
Promised patience, halitic alleviations  
C                   Dm          C              F    E 
Of what I should've known was a sign of future expiration 

D                            A 
Was I just a playful pawn, a trophy you had won? 
D                                      A 
Someone who could lift you when you're low? 
D                          A 
Innocence to prey upon, or allies in the sun? 
D                                 A 
Heaven sent, or just hell bent on love? 


F        C       Bb       F     D/F#   G  
Aaaaaaah Aaaaaaa Aaaaaah  Aaah  ahhh   Aaaah 

C     Bb     F 
Aaaah Aaaah  Aaaaaaaaaah 

  
G                 C     Bb                      F      G 
So will I marry a myth?    Or is there room for second chances? 
F                       C            Bb    F 
  The lust lives in the dark and may never show 


          Dm                  G 
Well, the battle ended years ago 
    C               B/Am   Am  G 
Now this is how you say hello 
Fm                         C 
Well where'd you take your leave? 
   Dm               E            F#m             G 
Or would you rather keep another trick up your sleeve? 
Dm                G 
  Do you remember love? 
        C               B/Am        Am     G 
How you said you really never could feel enough? 
Fm                     C 
Well did you give it a try? 
Dm 
Why don't you open your eyes and let me know?

Innocence to prey upon, or allies in the sun? 
F                              C 
Heaven sent, just hell bent on love?

Dm                  G  
What will happen to us? 
       C           B/Am     Am    G 
Do you think we'll make the cut? 
Fm                  C 
Should we give it a try? 
Fm                 C 
Give an eye for an eye? 
Fm                    Am 
Give ourselves to the lie?
