Ok so with that in mind...here is the lyrics and how the chords should be played.

Verse

]

I'd better rest my eyes

 'Cause I'm growing weary of

 This point you've been trying to make

So rather than imply

 Why don't you just verbalize

 All the things that you're trying to say

Thought this would turn out so well

 But I'm beginning to see

 That instead it's trouble

Into a pattern we fell

 Of prolonging the inevitable

Chorus

]

Why don't you

 Come right out and say it?

Even if the words are probably gonna hurt

I'd rather have the truth than something insincere

Why don't you

 Come right out and say it (come right out and say it)?

What it is you're thinking

 Though I'm thinking it's not what I wanna hear

Verse

]

I better check my pride

 Because I was starting to think

 I was on to something good

But things started to slide

 And I sit here in retrospect

 And understanding that I misunderstood

Thought I could make up your mind

 And then this decision locks up

 So tight it couldn't be touched

Thought you were being so kind

 But keeping your mouth sealed shut

 Rather than just opening it up

Chorus

Solo

see other tab; or; play verse chords]

And I tried

 To guess what goes on in your head

'Cause in your mind

 I just might find

 All those things you left unsaid

And I'll try to maybe not regret anything

Later on after I'm gone

You'll wish that you

  (Build up)

Had listened to me (listened to me)

Chorus

Single Strums]

Why don't you

Come right out and say it

Even if the words are gonna hurt

We're better off this way

Why don't you

Come right out and say come right out and say

 What I know you're thinking anyway

Chorus

And thats it guys, rate, comment, whatever!

Enjoy!
