Hold Fire

Intro: 
G Em F 
G Em F 



   G      Em            F 
Forgive me, I wrongly assumed 
G                             Em        F 
 That when I found you in the back of a room 
            G            Em 
You'd wanna talk about it 
    F               G            Em F 
But no one wants to talk about it 
      G                    Em        F 
Did I fuck this, break the boundary again? 
G                        Em             F 
 Really the only one who thinks it's pretend 
        G            Em F 
I wanna talk about it 
                    G            G# A 
But no one wants to talk about it 



F                        Em 
Lines in the sand, don't understand 


A 
What if we remove the masks 
E 
Say these moments were our last 
G                       D# 
Surely then to what you asked 

You would wanna hear it 
A 
Feeling better after talk 
E 
Can't help think we missed the mark 
G                           D# 
Try again when it gets dark 



    G     Em 
Hold fire 
F   G Em 
Hold 
F    G    Em 
Hold fire 
F  G Em F 
Hold 



             G                  Em    F 
Not that you asked, I have this quirk 
          G                           Em           F 
I find it tricky as a Pick-Me to just leave all my work 
         G         Em 
And be appropriate 
     F               G             Em F 
Then you won't wanna talk about it 
    F       Em                 D#      D 
And I don't know if that could ever be me 
           C 
And people chit chat, why that potentially might be 
           G              Em 
That's inappropriate (Hey!) 
    F                   G      G# A 
And I don't wanna talk about it 


 
F                        Em 
Lines in the sand, don't understand 



A 
What if we remove the masks 
E 
Say these moments were our last 
G                       D# 
Surely then to what you asked 

You would wanna hear it 
A 
Feeling better after talk 
E 
Can't help think we missed the mark 
G                           D# 
Try again when it gets dark

F  G Em

    G                              Em           F              G Em 
Hold fire (Can I convert you to an open kind of conversation?) 
F   G                                    Em             F          G Em F 
Hold fire (No, I can't promise you we'll practice it in moderation) 
    G                              Em           F             G Em
