Shoot From The Lip Chords by The Rifles

[Verse]

     Dm
On a matter of opinion 

baby go for the throat
        Em
It's so fast the way to 

settle it is open a vote
       Dm
It's a paper thin line 

between love and insane
     Em
Baby you can have the battle 

if you're taking the blame
            Dm
In the heat of the moment 

it's the words that burn
    Em
But nothing quite says it 

like a four letter word
     Dm
So I shoot from the lip 

with a loaded tongue
    Em
Too proud to go down in love
 
 
[Chorus]

C                
Sometimes its the 
Am              Em   G
silence that we need
C                 
Sometimes its the 
Am          Em    G
spaces in between
  C              
I love you more, 
Am                  Dm      Em
more than the air I breathe
 
 
[Verse]
           Dm
There's no substitute 

for clearing the air
       Em
But it feels like forever 

that we take it there
          Dm
And we're never gonna 

settle on polite exchange
               Em
When the first port of 

call is some loving rage
      Dm
So we stand at the 

barrel of a loaded gun
      Em
And I can't walk away 

and baby you won't run
      Dm
So we go round a circle 

with an infinite end
         Em
Cause we won't allow 

our pride to bend
 
 
[Chorus]

C                 
Sometimes its the 
Am              Em   G
silence that we need
C                 
Sometimes its the 
Am          Em    G
spaces in between
  C             
I love you more, 
Am                  Em      G
more than the air I breathe
C         Am             Dm
Sometimes time is all we need
 
 
[Interlude]

Em  Dm  Em 
Am  Em  Fmaj7  Em
 
 
[Bridge]
                     
And I've been to 
    Am  Em     F     Em
the top of the world
Em
So baby stop your crying
       Dm                 
It's a long road down 
    Em
and we don't need it
            Dm     Em
And we keep going round
 
 
[Out-Chorus]

C                  
Sometimes it's the 
Am              Em   G
silence that we need
C                  
Sometimes it's the 
Am          Em    G
spaces in between
  C              
I love you more, 
Am                  Em      G
more than the air I breathe
C         Am             Dm
Sometimes time is all we need
Em
Love is an open flame
Dm                N.C.
And words that we exchange
