(Give Me Back My) Name Chords

(ver. 1)
Talking Heads
Give me back my name

C#m                    Dm                                              
There's a word for it

And words don't mean a thing
C#m                     Dm
There's name for it

And names make all the difference in the world
Gm
Some things can never be spoken
Eb
Some things cannot be pronounced
G                            A
That word does not exist in any language
D                                    F
It will never be uttered by a human mouth

C#m
Let X make a statement
Dm
Let breath pass through those cracked lips
C#m
That man was my hero
Dm
And now that word has been taken from us
