Something to Say
by Toad the Wet Sprocket
chords by rhoulett@depauw.edu
This is how I play it. Doesn't mean it's right.
[intro]
C G Am G C D Em
C G Am G C D G
[verse1]
C G C G
He's got a thing about losin' control
C G Em D
carries it a mile just to see how far he'll go
C G C G
He brushes up his chops as he tries to fake a smile
C G A
A friend indeed when I need someone to stay a while
C
Someone to stay a while
[chorus]
F G C G
You can bend my ear, we will talk all day
Am Em D
Just make sure I'm around when you finally got something to say
C G Am G C D G (same as 2nd half of intro)
[verse2]
G C G C G
He drops hints but he won't tell you what's really on his mind
C G Em D
But I know if I look it's easy to find
C G C G
He's got a way with his anger, a way he lets it show
C G A
Like the smoldering smoke when the fire's left to coals
C
Fire's left to coals.
[chorus]
F G C G
You can take me down, you can show me your home
C D G Em
Not the place where you live, but the place where you belong
F G C G
You can bend my ear, we will talk all day
Am Em D C
Just make sure I'm around when you've finally got something to say
[bridge]
C D G Em
C D G Em
C D
?
Bb C F G Em
And what do you mean by I don't deserve this life?
[verse3]
C G C G
Well, his door's always open, he's always got the time
C G Em D
To give a little something, even though he gets behind
C G C G
Your trips become his, and your lives are entwined
C G A
But like the horse with the junkie, it's all in your mind
C
All in your mind.
[chorus]
F G C G
You can take me down, you can show me your home
C D G Em
Not the place where you live, but the place where you belong
F G C G
You can bend my ear, we will talk all day
Am Em D C
Just make sure I'm around when you've finally got something to say
C G Am G C D G
C G Am G
Finally got something, finally got something,
C D Em
Finally got something to say
C G Am G C D G

| I'm with you catherineks...that stanza hits me in a way that millions of thoughts explode through my head. I especially relate to the whole song because I feel it describes me. Always putting myself aside to be there or help everyone else. I usually say what's bothering me through hints or notions. And I keep my anger in...smoldering after the fact. This whole album, no all of their albums are awesome. | |

| I cannot believe no one has commented! This is such a terrific song! The words are just incredible and the music is beautiful. For some reason, I love the line "you can take me down / you can show me your home / not the place where you live / but the place where you belong" ... it just gets me every time. | |

| his door is always open and he's always got the time to give a little something even though he gets behind This song makes me think of when people go through the motions, myself specifically included. I always put my priorites above people, which is dare i say rude for lack of a better term Maybe i should say its not real, because I percieve these trivial goals to be so important in my life and I fabricate conversation just looking for an oppritunity to go forfeit the conversation and go get my "list" done. yet in reality i dont ever remember what grades I made, i remember those meaningful conversations. So what its saying to me is Im forfieting meaningful conversations by contriving fake conversation. | |
