Well, I’ve got o pen eyes

but I (G)don’t know (D)what I’m search ing (Bm)for.

I should (G)know by now.

Well, I’ve a (G)big old (D)heart

this I (G)know for sure,

but I (G)don’t know (D)what my love is (Bm)for.

I should (G)know by now.

Well, I wait in line

so I can (G)wait some (D)more,

till I (G)can’t re mem ber what I (A)came here (Bm)for.

But I (G)can’t leave (D)now

’cause I’ve a (G)light that shines

and a (G)love so pure.

But I (G)don’t know (D)what to use them (Bm)for.

I should (G)know by now.

Well, I (G)spent my mon ey I (A)lost my friends, I (D)broke my mo bile phone.

and I’m drunk as hell and I’m (D)danc ing on my own.

Tax i cabs ain’t (A)stop ping and I don’t know my way home.

Well, it’s hard to find a rea son

when (D)all you have is doubt.

Hard to see in side your self when you (D)can’t see your way out.

Hard to find an ans wer when the (D)ques tion won’t come (G)out.

Oh, and ev ’ry one’s fill ing me up with noise I don’t know what they’re talk ing a bout.

Ev ’ry one’s fill ing me up with noise I don’t know what they’re talk ing a bout.

Ev - ’ry one’s fill ing me up with noise I don’t know what they’re talk ing a bout.

Ev - know what they’re talk ing a bout.

You see all I need’s a whis per

In a world that on ly shouts.
