G
I had another drink after another drink
D
and then I tried to crawl to the door
I had another smoke after another joke
G
and then I couldn't take anymore
It didn't change a thing not any single thing
C
when someone tried to tell me for sure
G D
I heard another voice that said I wasn't in a dream
G D
I read a word or two about everything
G D
I never knew the way that it ought to have been
C D G
they never told me a thing about it
C D G
I never did know a thing about it
{CHORUS}
C G
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes they won't go away
C G
And the times that I've tried are the times that I find they don't show today
F C F G C F G (see intro riff)
But you make me feel so good
I woke up after four still lying on the floor waiting to be carried away
I woke up once again a little after ten will things be better today
It doesn't change you see it only changes me
will someone try to tell me I'm sure

I'm gonna hear a voice and know isn't in a dream
I'm gonna read the lines again and look between
I never knew the way that it ought to have been
they never told me a thing about it
I never did know a thing about it
{CHORUS}
INTRO RIF 5 TIMES
I'm going back to school I'm gonna check the rules and see if I get carried away
I'm going back again I'm gonna try again don't listen what the people might say
It doesn't change a thing not any single thing
will someone try to tell me for sure
I'm gonna hear a voice and know isn't in a dream
I'm gonna read the lines again and look between
I never knew the way that it ought to have been
they never told me a thing about it
I never did know a thing about it
{CHORUS}
F C G
I'm gonna hear a voice and know isn't in a dream
I'm gonna read the lines again and look between
I never knew the way that it ought to have been
they never told me a thing about it
I never did know a thing about it
