Chords for Eric Hutchinson - Talk is Cheap [Track By Track]

_ _ _ I was getting a little tired of going to parties and having to make the same chit-chat.
And I find that's usually when I write my best songs, is when I want to write something that I'm not saying to people.
And one day I got up and I wrote this part of a song. _
_ Lately I'm [D] losing my appetite for all the pretty young girls and the [A] socialites who just talk.
[D] And this is what [A] we do, we just talk.
[D] _ [E] And I had that bouncing around and I'd just sing that part over and over again.

And the beginning of his first couple albums always had a really short one minute, one and a half minute song.
There was a little intro and then the album would start.

[F#m] And [A] I should know.
[D] I've [A] given my everything.
[D] And [E] it wasn't close.
[A] _ [C#m] People mean [F#m] well.
[A] Still make a _ [D] mess.
From [A] now on I'm listening.
[D] _
[E] Saving my breath.
_ _ And I just like the idea of somebody getting the album for the first time or downloading it or whatever and they put it on.
And just hearing that as a little intro.
Maybe you haven't heard me in a while.
Maybe you've never heard me before.
[A#] I just like this idea of the intro to the album. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
The album for the first time or downloading it or whatever and they put it on.
And just hearing that as
