Intro]
[D] [G]
[Verse 1]
There's a [D]truth I need to trust[G][D]
But I can't [G]remember how[D][G][D][G]
It's [D]stuck there in the [G]stillness[D]
But the noise is [G]too damn loud[D][G][D][G]
And I [G]thought I [D/F#]was an [Em]actor
I'd [G]let my [D/F#]colors [Em]show
But [D]what if I'm just a bastard[G]
Laying [D]low inside [G]your radio
[D] [G] [D] [G]
[Verse 2]
Won't you [D]help me make a fist[G][D]
And choke the po[G]ison [D]back[G][D]
[G]We'll close our [D]eyes each god[G]forsaken [D]time
The world [G]gets painted [D]black[G][D][G]
And we'll [G]wonder [D/F#]where it [Em]comes from
How the [G]pain cuts [D/F#]through the [Em]pride
When the [D]tools we use to fix [G]ourselves[D]
Are just the fools [G]we stood beside[D][G][D][G]
[Chorus]
But [G]love is [D/F#]not an [Em]answer
Oh, [G]I don't [D/F#]need an [Em]answer
I need [D]you[G][D][G]
[Verse 3]
De[D]votion strong but tender[G][D]
Devotion [G]dark and [D]cold[G][D][G]
De[D]votion like an [G]anchor[D]
Swinging [G]from my [D]soul[G][D][G]
I [G]used to [D/F#]weigh the [Em]distance
I [G]used to [D/F#]miss my [Em]cues
I [D]used to say I love you[G][D]
Then wonder who [G]I'm talking [D]to[G][D][G]
{Chorus]
But [G]love is [D/F#]not an [Em]answer
Oh, [G]I don't [D/F#]need an [Em]answer
I need [D]you[G][D][G]
[Piano solo]
with verse chords.
[Verse 4]
So [D]bring my all your question[G]s[D]
Bring me [G]all your [D]doubts[G][D][G]
Don't [D]let me meet the devil[G][D]
That I sang [G]those songs [D]about[G][D][G]
Cause the [G]hounds of [D/F#]youth are [Em]howling
And you're [G]all I've [D/F#]got to [Em]trust
With [D]heaven's lonely ghetto[G][D]
Up there crying [G]down on [D]us[G][D]
[Chorus]
But [G]love is [D/F#]not an [Em]answer
Oh, [G]I don't [D/F#]need an [Em]answer
I need [D]you[G][D][G]
Yeah, [G]love is [D/F#]not an [Em]answer
Oh, [G]love is [D/F#]not an [Em]answer
Oh, [G]I don't [D/F#]need an [Em]answer
I need [D]you[G][D][G]
I need [D]you [G] [D] [G]
