Only Talking Sense Tab

by Neil Finn


INTRO:           


VERSE:
   
There's a wild thing in the wool-shed
                                    
And it’s keeping me awake at night.

                                                           
A devil in the closet and a feeling I'd prefer to hide

                                                             
He is religion, he won't hear me when I cry for help

                                       
He has a vision of me but I am somebody else


CHORUS:
   
We talk the pillow
                                       
There are times when I'm tied up to the fence
                                    
And I'm only talking sense


VERSE:
There's a mirror lake before me
But I'm frozen when it's time to jump
It's like maybe I'm afraid of what I'll find
When independence comes.
                  
You steal my shadow, you make my blood run dry


CHORUS:
                        
We are true only when we talk the pillow
                                       
There are times when I'm tied up to the fence
                     
Only talking sense...

                               
And I'm only talking sense...


VERSE:
        
Did you suffer as a child,
                                            
that's why you want to make me cry?
                                                           
You are afraid of me, that's why you're so unki...............nd.


CHORUS:
    
You won't deny it…
                                 
When your child is tied up to the fence
                       
And I'm only talking sense
               
Lonely when we talk the pillow
                                  
And your child is messed up in the head
                 
I'm only talking sense
