Intro:     x4

C/G         Am            (rest of verse is the same)
Another reason to doubt me
Another teardrop falls
Can't wait for a friend when loneliness calls
Another kiss in the basement
Pour salt on my tongue
No one cries for heros left unsung

(chorus)
                
Look at me when I'm talking to you
                 
Look at me in the eyes
                 
Then look away and tell me why_______why

   

        
Another tasteless movie
Another kiss goodnight
Could be a dark oasis in my life
Another icon smashed to pieces
By yesterday's romance
Another hated person no more chances

(chorus)
Look at me when I'm talking to you
Look at me in the eyes
Then look away and tell me why...why

(Quietly...with some damping)

            
Playin' with a happy boy
A cold place for a man
Familiar faces in a foreign land

                     
The hands kept spinning around the face
                                      ()
But the earth stopped cold at dawn
( one strum)        
For a moment, then moved on
For a moment, then moved on...

(Play intro and end on Am)
