“Right to Remain Silent”

G                                         Am
Can I have this dance, my you're looking pretty
                    C                       G
Is there something wrong, did he leave you hurting
                                           Am   C         G
I don't mean to pry, but that tear in your eye gave you a-way
G                                        Am
If you don't want to talk we'll keep in quiet
                 C                            G
But sometimes a heartache hurts worse if you hide it
                                    Am
I think there's a chance, one slow dance
C               G    D
Might ease the pain…

(CHORUS)

D             G               Am
You have the right to remain silent
                   C                  G
Anything that you say as I hold you against me
                   Am     C           G   D
Will forever be a secret, between us two
                   G                  Am
I've been wanting you but you didn't know it
                   C                   G
And now that he's gone, at last I can show it
                                              Am
If your heart is tired, for the rest of your life
     C           G
Lay your love on me.

(Outro)

Am                C              G
So many times my eyes have held you
Am                  C              G
Tonight please give my heart that chance
   Em                           Am
If you don't feel the need for conversation
C                   Am               D
We'll just let our hearts talk while we dance…

(REPEAT CHORUS)

                  G                           Am
If your heart is tired, for the rest of your life
    C            G
Lay your love on me.
