F
Wrapped up in dissonance,
    Gm7        A#      F      D#
I'm sorry that I just walked away
F                             Gm7
Lost in the insignificance of mine,
   A#     F     D#
I had no words to say
F                     Gm7
Now I am better, I implore you
    A#    F      D#
To say it isn't right
     F
But somewhere deep in history
     Gm7                 A#       F    D#
Your father pulled your teeth out of your fight

Chorus:
Gm7
Hold it in, now let's go dancing
  A#                               F
I do believe we're only passing through
Gm7
Wired again, now look who's laughing,
A#                             F
You again, oh you, oh you, oh you
Gm7
Hold it in, now let's go dancing
  A#                               F
I do believe we're only passing through
Gm7
Wired again, now look who's laughing,
A#                         F
Me again, all fired up on you

Gm  F/A   A#     A#/D D#
Now she's caught between
         A#               F      D#
What to say and what she really means

Wrapped up in empathy
The chemicals are pushing past my blood
Hold all my cliches
They are tipping my tongue to tell you
that it's love

Chorus:
Hold it in, let's go dancing
I do believe we're only passing through
Wired again, look who's laughing
You again, all you, all you, all you
Hold it in, let's go dancing
I do believe we're only passing through
Wired again now look who's laughing
Me again, all fired up on you

And now she's caught between
What to say and what she really means
And I am finally coloring
Inside the lines that I live between

Chorus:
Hold it in, let's go dancing
I do believe we're only passing through
Wired again, look who's laughing
You again, all you, all you, all you
Hold it in, let's go dancing
I do believe we're only passing through
Wired again, look who's laughing
Me again, all fired up on you
