[C] [G]
I had another drink after another drink, and then I tried to [D] call it a go.
I had another smoke after another joke, and then I couldn't [G] take any more.
It didn't change a thing, not any single thing, but someone tried to tell [C] me to soar.
[G] I heard another voice, [D] he said I wasn't in the door.
[G] I heard the word or two [D] about him.
[G] I never knew the way [D] that it all happened.
[C] They [D] never told [G] me a thing about him.
[C] I [D] never did [G] know a thing about [C] him.
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
[G] they won't go away.
[C] And the times that I tried are the times that I find [G] they don't show today.
[F] But you [C] make me feel [G] so good.
[C] [G]
I woke up after school still lying on the floor, waiting to be [D] carried away.
I woke up once again a little after ten, were things really [G] better today?
It didn't change a thing, it only changed me, but someone tried to tell [C] me to soar.
[G] I'm going to hear a voice, [D] I know it isn't in a dream, [G] I'm going to read the lines [D] again.
I [G] never knew the way [D] that it all happened.
[C] They never [D] told [G] me a thing about him.
[C] I never [D] did [G] know a thing about him.
[C] And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
[G] they won't go away.
[C] And the times that I tried are the times that I find [G] they don't show today.
[F] But you make [C] me feel [G] so good.

[G]
I'm going back to school, I'm going to check the rules and see if I get [D] carried away.
I'm going back again, I'm going to try again, to listen to what the [G] people might say.
It doesn't change a thing, not any single thing, but someone tried to [C] tell me to soar.
[G] I'm going to hear a [D] voice, I know it isn't in [G] a dream, I'm going to read the [D] lines again.
