[Verse 1]
[D]We're crawling into my apart[Em]ment
[D]It must have been 10 AM
[Em]My s[D]tomach's turnin',
my head is [Em]spinnin'
[F#m]I can't breathe, no oxygen[Em]
An[D]d I swear this'll be the l[Em]ast time
[D]Though I swear it ain't the [Em]first,
[D]how come every time
I start feeling [Em]bet ter,
[F#m]I start acting wors[Em]e?
[D]Cause people don't [Em]learn,
[D]people don't [Em]learn,
[D]people don't [Em]learn
[F#m]Nothing but a lesson[Em]
[D]The lives of the [Em]po ets
[D]The great [Em]painters,
[D]They say most of them,
they were short [Em]lives
I [F#m]wonder, is that really [Em]true?
[D]Didn't they dream of the chil[Em]dren
run[D]ning through a green [Em]lawn
[D]With the sun shining so
[Em]brightly up above
Instead of [F#m]calling it a [Em]dawn
[D]But people don't [Em]learn,
[D]people don't [Em]learn
[D]People don't [Em]learn
[F#m]nothing but [Em]a lesson
[G]And I remember eve[C]rything,[G][D]
things that we do [G]to pretend
[C]we are [D]king[Em][D]
[G]And as the nig[C]hts go [G]by[D]
And I watch [G]the stars
disappear [C]from the [D]sky
High, high, [D#]high[Em][D][Em]
[D][Em][D][F#m][Em]
[D]I'm coming home from my trip
[Em]And te[D]lephoning what's new[Em]
[D]Somebody says Tom [Em]Baker died
Oh [F#m]my God, is that really tru[Em]e?
[D]He could have been some kind of [Em]act or
[D]Or maybe me too, [Em]yeah
[D]And you know all I could [Em]ever do
is [F#m]stand back and [Em]look
[D]Cause people don't [Em]learn
[D]People don't lea[Em]rn
[D]People don't lea[Em]rn
Noth[Fm]ing [F#m]but a less[Em]on[F#m][Em][F#m]
[Em]you[D][Em][D][Em][G][Em][G][D]
