Don't Talk

by 10,000 Maniacs

from the album 10,000 Maniacs Unplugged

        D     Dmaj7

        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.
