Dont Say No Chords

Acoustic chords for "Don't Say No" by Billy Squier from his "Don't Say No" album (1981)
Fade into the song at the beginning. Fade out of the instrumental break. Come back in heavy before the last
verse. Fade out at the end.
 
[Verse]
D            C               D             C  G
We live in confusion times---my world is a vice
D           C           D                             C
Nobody gets out alive...but you can break through the ice
G         A   G  A
Don't say no
 
[Verse]
D                 C           D             C  G
My wounds are the open kind---I bleed every day
D            C                D                 C
I pray for a change of mind...you could take me away
G         A    G         A
Don't say no...Don't say no
G         A    G         A
Don't say no...Don't say no
 
[Chorus 1]
F#m                 G                    A
Take on the system, playin' on the wrong side
F#m                G                     A
Spend all my money tryin' to have a good time
F#m                         G
Come 'round to see you from time to time
A                         D  D
Weak in the knees and I'm busted
 
[Verse]
D                C               D             C  G
Some people they treat me kind...some drive me away
D                C                D             C
Some people they blow your mind...it's not easy today
G         A   G  A
Don't say no
 
[Verse]
D             C            D                 C  G
I live on the borderline...you come from the void
D            C                D                          C
I beg you to cross the line...you take good care of your boy
G         A    G         A
Don't say no...Don't say no
G         A    G         A
Don't say no...Don't say no
 
[Chorus 2]
F#m             G                 A
Got me a ticket sittin' on a gold mine
F#m                   G                     A
Send me the int'rest, take me where the sun shines
F#m                        G
Come 'round to see me from time to time
A                       D  D
Bring it to me when I'm busted

A G A  G  A G A
D              C           D                   C
One minute I'm outa time...I don't fit in your game
D              C          D                   C
You kill me in overtime...I don't remember my name
D                 C            D                  C
One minute you're on my mind...next minute you're gone
D              C                D                  C
You tell me to read the signs...they tell me we're on

Don't say no
