D                               A
Talk back trembling lips, shaky legs, don't just 

stand there.
E                                           A   A7
Don't let her know she's getting through to you.
D                                 A
Talk back trembling lips, burning eyes, don't 

start crying.
E                                     D           A
Heart, don't let her know that you're breaking in two.

#1.
A             D               A
Every day our love's a battle royal.
A                                      E
Dear, it seems that fighting is all we do.
A                D                A
But if I let you know how much I love you,
B                                    E  E7
you'll do things to me you shouldn't do.

CHORUS:
    D                               A
So, talk back trembling lips, shaky legs, don't just 

stand there.
E                                           A   A7
Don't let her know she's getting through to you.
D                                 A
Talk back trembling lips, burning eyes, don't 

start crying.
E                                     D           A  A#
Heart, don't let her know that you're breaking in two.

#2.
A              D              A
Every time you up and hurt my feelings,
A                            E
I pretend it couldn't matter less.
A               D          A
I'm just hiding all of my emotions,
  B                       E
behind my broken heart, I guess.

CHORUS:
    D                               A
So, talk back trembling lips, shaky legs, don't just 

stand there.
E                                           A   A7
Don't let her know she's getting through to you.
D                                 A
Talk back trembling lips, burning eyes, don't 

start crying.
E                                     D           A
Heart, don't let her know that you're breaking in two.

OUTRO:
E                                     D           A
Heart, don't let her know that you're breaking in two.
