D Dmaj7

Don't talk, I will listen

Don't talk, you keep your distance, For I'd

G D Em D

rather hear some truth tonight than entertain your lies. So

take your poison silently. Let me be.

Em A

Let me close my eyes.

D Dmaj7

Don't talk, I'll believe it

Don't talk, listen to me instead. I

G D Em D

know that if you think of it, both long enough and hard. The

drink that you drown your troubles in is the trouble

Em A

you're in now.

Chorus

Em D A Em D A

(We will) talk, talk, talk about it, You talk as if you care. But

Em D A D G

when your talk is over, tilt that bottle in the air.

D G A

tossing back more than your share

Don't talk, I can guess it.

Don't talk, well, now you're restless and you need somewhere to put

the blame

for how you feel inside.

You'll look for a close and easy mark and you'll see me as fair game.

Chorus

You talk, talk, talk about it, You

talk as if you care. I'm marking every

word and I can tell this time for sure,

Your talk is the finest I have heard.

So don't talk, I was sleeping

Don't talk, let me go on dreaming

How your eyes they glow so fiercely,

I can tell that you're inspired

by the name that you just chose for me.

Now what was it?

Oh, never mind it.

We will talk, talk, talk about this

When your head is clear.

I'll discuss this in the morning,

But until then

You may talk but I won't hear.
