Verse 1
G 
F 
G 
All the way from America,
holding out your hand
And you pinned your
collars to the mast,
pinned them high up in the sky
Em 
Look what you do to  me,
my hands keep thumping,
D 
C 
waltzing triple time
G 
So she rode all the way from America,
arriving just as planned
Passing through the blocks and alleyways,
the avenues and primes
Em 
And look what you do to  me
D 
Look what your tender hands
C 
have done this time I say
G 
Don't take the silence too hard
Don't take the silence too hard
Em 
Your absence lasts
D 
C 
through every passing year
G 
Don't take the silence too hard
All the way from America,
straining with my eyes
To see the hours stretched out before me
As I cross the ocean line,
Em 
look what you do for me
D 
C 
My hands are ruby warm and I feel fine
G 
I said, to the home of erotica
Picture on the stand,
kneel down and pray
Take no burdens out of the promised land
Em 
Into the mystery
D 
C 
Your eyes are full of tales of idle hands
G 
She says, don't take the
silence too hard
Don't take the silence too hard
Em 
Your absence lasts
D 
C 
through every passing year
G 
Don't take the silence too hard
All the way from America,
holding out your hand
You pinned your collars to the mast,
pinned them high and in the sky
Em 
Look what you've done to  me
My hands keep thumping,
D 
C 
waltzing triple time
G 
Don't take the silence too hard
Don't take the silence too hard
Don't take the silence too hard
Don't take the silence too hard
Don't take, don't take
Don't take, don't take
Don't take the silence too hard
