Hand In Hand Elvis Costello
D A
No don't ask me to apologise.
D A
I won't ask you to forgive me.
D Bm
If I'm gonna go down,
A E A
you're gonna come with me.
F#m
You say, "Why don't you be a man about it,
Bm
like they do in the grown-up movies?"
F#m
But when it comes to the other way around,
A E A
you say you just wanna use me.
G
Oh, you sit and you wonder whether
Bm
it's gonna be syndicated.
G
You sit with your knees together.
A E A G
All the time your breath is baited.
D A D
Hand in hand.
No don't ask me to apologise.
I won't ask you to forgive me.
If I'm gonna go down,
you're gonna come with me.
Don't you know I got the bully boys out
changing someone's facial design,
sitting with my toy room lout,
polishing my precious china.
Don't you know I'm an animal?
But don't you know I can't stand up steady?
But you can't show me any kind of hell
that I don't know already.
D A D
Hand in hand.
D A
No don't ask me to apologise.
D A
I won't ask you to forgive me.
D Bm
If I'm gonna go down,
A E A G
you're gonna come with me hand in hand,
G/D A G G/D A G
hand in hand, hand in hand.
D A D D A D D A D
Hand in hand, hand in hand, hand in hand
