G
I had another drink after another drink

                                      D
and then I tried to crawl to the door

I had another smoke after another joke

                                G
and then I couldn't take anymore

It didn't change a thing not any single thing

                                      C
when someone tried to tell me for sure

           G                        D
I heard another voice that said I wasn't in a dream

          G                  D
I read a word or two about everything

          G                   D
I never knew the way that it ought to have been

      C         D          G
they never told me a thing about it

   C         D           G
I never did know a thing about it


[CHORUS]
         C                                             G
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes they won't go away

         C                                                          G
And the times that I've tried are the times that I find they don't show today

    F             C   F   G      C     F   G  (see intro riff)
But you make me feel so good

I woke up after four still lying on the floor waiting to be carried away

I woke up once again a little after ten  will things be better today

It doesn't change you see  it only changes me

will someone try to tell me I'm sure

I'm gonna hear a voice and know isn't in a dream

I'm gonna read the lines again and look between

I never knew the way that it ought to have been

they never told me a thing about it

I never did know a thing about it


[CHORUS]

INTRO RIF 5 TIMES


I'm going back to school  I'm gonna check the rules and see if I get carried away

I'm going back again  I'm gonna try again don't listen what the people might say

It doesn't change a thing not any single thing

will someone try to tell me for sure

I'm gonna hear a voice and know isn't in a dream

I'm gonna read the lines again and look between

I never knew the way that it ought to have been

they never told me a thing about it

I never did know a thing about it


[CHORUS]

F    C              G
         I'm gonna hear a voice and know isn't in a dream

I'm gonna read the lines again and look between

I never knew the way that it ought to have been

they never told me a thing about it

I never did know a thing about it

And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes they won't go away
