Van Halen - Don't Tell Me: chords

     F#m           D
It's ok, I'll do what I want
   E  F#m                 D
If I choose, I can take the fall
There's a choice
It's my destiny
In my hands
Yeah it's up to me
I can drive

F#m     D                   F#m
I can shoot a gun in the streets
Score me some heroin
I can jump
Be the sacrifice
                         E
Bear my cross just like Jesus Christ

Chorus:
       D                     A
And I don't wanna hear what love can do
No, I ain't gonna tell ya what's right for you

Is it right to take the easy way
Close your eyes
Get on your knees and pray
Now you're saved by a higher voice
Giving up, giving up, giving up your choice

If I'm wrong then I'll pay for it
If I'm right, yeah you're gonna hear about it
But I've tried, yeah I've tried for it
I tried, I tried, 'til I'm satisfied

Chorus:
And I
I'm tired of hearing what love can do
And I
Ain't gonna tell you what's right for you

               B
I've seen the damage done
                A
Down with the shotgun
                C#m
Don't stop the setting sun on my kingdom come
C
Oh

Is it right to take the easy way
I don't know
I get on your knees and pray
Now I'm saved by a higher voice
Givin' up, givin' up, givin' up my choice

If I'm wrong then I'll pay for it
If I'm right, yeah you're gonna deal with it
Cause I've tried, yeah I tried for it
I tried, I tried, even die for it

Chorus:
No I
Don't wanna hear what love can do
No I
I can't tell you what's right for you
Oh I
Tell you what love can do
No I
Can't say but your time is through

I've seen the damage done
Oh Lord, I've heard the shotgun
I fought the setting sun on my kingdom come
Oh
Don't tell me what love can do
Hey, hey, hey
Don't tell me what love can do
Hey, hey, hey
