The Listening

C                                  
Please excuse me, I'm not thinking 
Am
clear
                C                  
It must just be stress but I likely
              Am
 shouldn't be here
F
I'm such a mess


[Chorus]
  C
I never really ever know what to say
     Em
When all of my emotions get in the 
way
    Am                             
And I'm just trying to get us on 
       F
the same page
  C
I always get it better right 
afterward
     Em
When all the wrong impressions are 
said and heard
Am                                 
How come I can never get the right 
F
words, I need to
   C            Em          Am   F
convey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey


[Verse]
               C                   
Wish I could explain the things 
                 Am
that I have to work out
F
I don't feel right

C                           Am
What has come over me, I'm about
F
To lose my mind


[Chorus]
  C
I never really ever know what to say
     Em
When all of my emotions get in the 
way
    Am                             
And I'm just trying to get us on 
       F
the same page
  C
I always get it better right 
afterward
     Em
When all the wrong impressions are 
said and heard
Am                                 
How come I can never get the right 
F
words, I need to
   C            Em          Am   F
convey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey
Wish I could 
  C              Em          Am   F
explain-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ain


[Bridge]
Dm            C
Can I let the trees do the talking
G             Dm
Can I let the ground do the walking
F             C
Can I let the sky fill what's 
missing
G              Dm        
  Can I let my mouth do the 
          F      C
listening...
              G      F
the listening...


[Chorus]
  C
