[G#] What in the world caused this distance?
[C#] And what in the world hurts our hearts?
[G#] And what are we to do about it?
[C#] And what are we to start?
[G#] We have an answer in this language.
It [C#] might be silence, it might be words.
[G#] And it includes some understanding.
[C#] And it includes the will to learn.
To be [G#] talking, talking, talking [C#] one time.
[G#] Talking, talking, yeah, talking [C#] one time.
[G#] Give us the strength to look straight at you.
Let [C#] [C#m] doubt be the furthest [C#] from our [G#] minds.
So we can continue to be and know that we should be [C#] here.
And we can see the light inside.
[G#] As it gets more complicated, [C#] simplicity must arise.
[G#] So we can follow in this feeling.
[C#] And we can keep this song alive.
To [G#] be talking, talking, [C#] talking one time.
[G#] Talking, talking, [C#] talking one time.

I [G#] said, yes, there are many, many questions.
[C#] Yes, there is red tape on the ground.
[G#] Simple truth can cut through anything.
[C#] Just touch the base and make this sound.
[G#] Talking, talking, [C#] talking one time.
[G#] Talking, talking, talking [C#] one time.
