Come right out and say it – Relient K 
Capo on 1 for original key
Where I have written Am7, You may choose to play Am instead but to spice things up a bit 
I play the way I have written it :) but it is up to you, it is only a slight difference,
 so feel free to play whichever you find easier
[Verse:]
Am7I'd better rest my eyGes
'Cause I'm growing Fweary of
This Fpoint you've been trying to make
Am7So rather than impGly
Why don't you just Fverbalize
All the Fthings that you're trying to say
Am7Thought this would turn out so weGll
But I'm Fbeginning to see
That Finstead it's trouble
Am7Into a pattern we feGll
Of Fprolonging the inevitable
[Chorus:]
CWhy don't you
Come right out and Am7say it?
FEven if the words are probably gonna hurt
GI'd rather have the truth than something insincere
CWhy don't you
Come right out and Am7say it (come right out and say it)?
FWhat it is you're thinking
Though I'm Gthinking it's not what I wanna hear
[Verse:]
Am7I better check my prGide
Because I was Fstarting to think
FI was on to something good
Am7But things started to slGide
And I sit here in Fretrospect
And undersFtanding that I misunderstood
Am7Thought I could make up your miGnd
And then this decFision locks up
So Ftight it couldn't be touched
Am7Thought you were being so kiGnd
But keeping your Fmouth sealed shut
FRather than just opening it up
[Chorus]
[Solo]
[Bridge]
DmAnd I tried
To Cguess what goes on in your head
Am'Cause in your mGind
I just might Dmfind
All those Cthings you left unAmsaidG  
DmAnd I'll try to mCaybe not regret anything
AmLater on Gafter I'm gone
DmYou'll wish that yCou
Had listened to Amme (listeGned to me)
[Chorus: ]
CWhy don't you
Am7Come right out and say it
FEven if the words are gonna Ghurt
We're better off this way
CWhy don't you
Am7Come right out and say come right ouFt and say
What I know yGou're thinking anyway
[Chorus]
CWhy don't you
Come right out and Am7say it?
FEven if the words are probably gonna hurt
GI'd rather have the truth than something insincere
CWhy don't you
Come right out and Am7say it (come right out and say it)?
FWhat it is you're thinking
Though I'm Gthinking it's not what I wanna hear

Am7

Come right out and say it – Relient K

Capo on 1 for original key

Where I have written Am7, You may choose to play Am instead but to spice things up a bit

I play the way I have written it :) but it is up to you, it is only a slight difference,

so feel free to play whichever you find easier

[Verse:]

Am7 G

I'd better rest my eyes

'Cause I'm growing weary of

This point you've been trying to make

Am7 G

So rather than imply

Why don't you just verbalize

All the things that you're trying to say

Am7 G

Thought this would turn out so well

But I'm beginning to see

That instead it's trouble

Am7 G

Into a pattern we fell

Of prolonging the inevitable

[Chorus:]

Why don't you

Am7

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

Am7

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:]

Am7 G

I better check my pride

Because I was starting to think

I was on to something good

Am7 G

But things started to slide

And I sit here in retrospect

And understanding that I misunderstood

Am7 G

Thought I could make up your mind

And then this decision locks up

So tight it couldn't be touched

Am7 G

Thought you were being so kind

But keeping your mouth sealed shut

Rather than just opening it up

[Chorus]

[Solo]

[Bridge]

And I tried

To guess what goes on in your head

Am G

'Cause in your mind

I just might find

C Am G

All those things you left unsaid

Dm C

And I'll try to maybe not regret anything

Am G

Later on after I'm gone

Dm C

You'll wish that you

Am G

Had listened to me (listened to me)

[Chorus: ]

Why don't you

Am7

Come right out and say it

F G

Even if the words are gonna hurt

We're better off this way

Why don't you

Am7 F

Come right out and say come right out and say

What I know you're thinking anyway

[Chorus]

Why don't you

Am7

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

Am7

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
