[Verse]
G*
The first thing that you said to me
A7
Was that your life is so interesting
G*
So I followed it from week to week
Em
Like a T.V. show
G*
Everything you did was so
A7
Idealized and enviable
G*
Your perfect life it got so old
Em
So I turned my head
A7
Yeah I turned my head
[Chorus]
'Cuz all you you do is
G
Talk, talk, talk
A7
All about yourself, self, self
G
And I wonder if anybody else
Em
Sees through your smile
G
When you're going on and on
A7
I never want the things you want
G
Would it kill you to see that it's not cute
Em
To anyone who isn't you
[Verse]
G*
You sat down on the couch and said
A7
"What's going on, how have you been?"
G*
But you weren't really listening
Em
I could tell by how
G*
You act like my lips never move
A7
Nod, then make it about you
G*
Well tell me all the things you do
Em
As if I cared
A7
But honey, I don't care
[Chorus]
'Cuz all you do is
G
Talk, talk, talk
A7
All about yourself, self, self
G
And I wonder if anybody else

Sees through your smile

When you're going on and on

I never want the things you want
G
Would it kill you to see that it's not cute
Em
To anyone who isn't you
[Post Chorus]
G* Em
[Bridge]
G A7 Em
I wish you were the exception and not the rule
G A7 Em
But sadly baby that's just not true
G A7 Em
Everyone acts just like you
A7 G
So I think that I will too
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
