Chords

[Verse 1]
A              F                   C
     Take a minute to tell you right

     G                      A
And you can say what you want

          F           C
Turn around every night

     G                       A
So now you're always going off

            F            C
Doesn't matter what I done

    G                       A
Or if I even crossed the line

                 F                C
You start to holler, go in for blood

           G
Girl, it doesn't have to be a fight
[Pre-Chorus]
A                               F
Throwing out the blame when you know it ain't my fault

C                              G
Messing with my brain when you want to see me fall

A                            F
There may come a time when I don't bother you at all

C                 D
It isn't my call, it isn't my call
[Chorus]
A    F                             C                  G
Hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?

      A    F                             C                  D
I say hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?

      A    F                             C                  G
I say hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?

      A    F                             C                  D
I say hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?

You lose your head

Girl I'm standing right in front of you
