Strum
D-DU-UDU
Throw  the dog a bone I'll take  it if I have  to
Go  real fast like there's  somewhere we can get  to
 What's the use of standing right there on the edge
 If there ain't  nowhere to fall
What's  the use of hanging on tight to the phone
 If nobody  might call
Desperation,  there's danger in  frustration
 Complicated words slipping off  of your tongue
 And ain't  one  of them the  truth
 I'm still  desperate  for you
Tell  it like a lie, live  it like a movie
Give  a heart away like  it ain't nothing to me
 What's the use of making all the plans that we made
If  you weren't gonna go
What's  the use of slapping on a smile for a face
If  your eyes don't wanna show
Desperation,  there's danger in  frustration
 Complicated words slipping off  of your tongue
 And ain't  one of  them the  truth
 I'm still  desperate  for you
Well  it's too damn bad you didn't have a chance
 To make  me your best friend
 You were too  caught up in giving too much up
 And not doing  what you should have been
Desperation,  there's danger in  frustration
 Complicated words slipping off  of your tongue
 And ain't  one  of them the  truth
 I'm still  desperate  for you
