[D] [E] [A]
13 lovers [D] I hid beneath [A] the covers, got staples in my hands for [D] my time.
[E] Hit [A] the radio low so [F#] the folks don't know, I [D] proceed with my passion of [E] crime.
[A] And the somewhat obtuse I've been told this to use, will more than likely make me go [E] blind.
But [A] with a heart that's aching it's [F#m] a risk worth taking, [D] this true love they [E] say is so [A] hard to find.
[E] [A] Yeah, yeah.
[E] [A] So why can't you see what you [E]
do to [A] me?
Dance that girl on the [D]
[E] ceiling, [A] and live in a dream, [F#m] get lost on the screen, [D] do a frisbee in front of [E] a mirror.
[A] And I'm hanging around, getting [D] [E] high on the [A] sounds of ladies that I let [D] touch.
[E]
[A] Cross the double yellow [D] line, [F#m] who knows where, [D] six sets of [E] glory nights [A] in some bar.
[D] [A] Dead [E] wet [A] midnight, [D] two thousand [E] watts of [A] holy [C#m] light [F#m] from that [D] radio, [A] who's this?
[E]
[D] Who's [A] [E] [A] this man?
[D] Everybody [E] [A] listening [F#m] as the man plays [D] all the hits that you [A] won't hear.

[A] [D] [E]
[A] [D] [E]
With [A] a will to believe in [D] songs [E] on the [A] sleeve, well if only you'd known from [G] the [E] start.
[A] Such a sensitive toy for [F#m] a suburban [B] boy [D] who believed he was suffering [E] odd.
[A] And if something went wrong, man, [G] watch [E] this song, [F#] it's made of [A] slow death silenced [E] whores.
[A] He was taken to task by [F#m] some critical lasty [D] right.
[A] [E] Words only [A] are expressed.
Now here I'm constantly [D] grateful, to [A] the one inside the door.
You [G] know this, I [D]

Chasing the fame keeps them all [E] in the [A] game, but money's still the way they [D] keep [E] score.
[A] Nobody told [C#m] you that [F#m] you would get old.
[D] Strung out like some man with a [E] new horn.
[A]
[E] [A] Some LA's a dime [D] [E]
[A] a pound, [F#m] just to see if you heard about [D] the great [E] English band.
[A] They just sighed.
Take me [D] back to [A] dead [E] wet [A]
midnight.
[D] Watch [E] the [A] holy [E] light from [F#m] my [D] way.
[A] It's clear.
[E]
[A] [D] [A] [E] Everybody's [A]
listening.
[D] Just [E] anybody [A] listening.
[F#m] Does the man still [D] play all the hits that you won't [E] hear?
