Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Whe[F#m]n I wa[C#]ke up[A][D][F#m]
I'm speaking [Bm]slow.[F#m]
When I get drunk I'm speaking [Bm]more.[F#m]
[D]Get[F#m] too drunk & I don't speak[Bm] at all.[F#m]
Get too close to you [Bm]& I don't k[F#m]now wh[D]at[G] to say.[Bm][G][Bm]
[D][F#m][Bm][F#m][Bm][F#m][D][F#m][Bm][F#m][Bm][F#m][Bm]
[F#m]The only time I make sense [Bm]is[F#m]
when I'm talking in my [Bm]sleep.[F#m]
But there's nobody [D]around
to [Bm]write it [F#m]down,
So it gets lost on my [Bm]books & pil[F#m]lows.
The only time you made [Bm]sense [D]was
[F#m]when I was talking too.[Bm][F#m]
But [D]we had to take turns,
[Bm]one at a t[F#m]ime.[D]
& when it comes to mine [Bm]I have no
[D]idea [G]what to say.
[D][G][A]

[Verse 2]
When I'm talking [D]to you.[G]
What [D]to say [G]whe[A]n I'm standing there
[D]talking [Bm]to y[D]ou.[A][G][D]

[Verse 3]
[D]Words that [Bm]don't [D]relate to [Bm]one ano[D]ther flow
[Bm]ing [D]off [Bm]our tongues.[D][Bm]
Fragments, [D]fleeting [Bm]thou[D]ghts get strung
to[Bm]gether one by [D]one by [Bm]one.
Things [A]we can't [Bm]relay
to one another.
[D]Smoke [A]goes in [Bm]my lungs.
I [D]get more [A]from [Bm]a look than from people when
they've [D]spoke [A]or [Bm]yelled or sung.

[Verse 4]
[D]People [G]tal[Bm]k
[D]People [G]tal[Bm]k[D]
[G]People [Bm]talk,
[D]but[G] they don't know what to say[D].

[Interlude 1]
What do you say?
[D][Bm][A][D][A][Bm]
[A][D][A][Bm][A][D][Bm][A]

[Verse 5]
[D]When it comes to you,
[Bm]you look good in your [D]sleep (what do you say?)
When it comes to you, [Bm]you look good [D]in a heap of
images stacked so... [Bm]electronically.
[D](what do you say?)
When it comes to you [Bm]you look
to keep no [A]matter what

[Verse 6]
[D]People [G]tal[Bm]k.[D]
[G]People [Bm]walk.
[D]People [G]moc[Bm]k.[D]
[G]But[Bm] they don[G]'t know
what [D]to say.
[G]

[Verse 7]
What [D]to say [G]whe[A]n
I'm talking to [D]you.[G]
What to [D]say [G]whe[A]n I'm standing
there talking to [D]you.[G][Bm]
What [D]to say...[G][A]
What [D]to say...[G][Bm]
What [D]to say [G]now tha[A]t I'm standing here talking

[Outro 1]
to you.
[D][Bm][D][Bm][D][F#m][Bm][D][F#m]
