Attention, attention
May I have all your eyes and ears to the front of the room
Bar A
If only, if only for one second
A
This table, has taken a turn for the worst
Rock bottom, and over the edge
Bar A
Well, it's not like it hurts that much anyway
A
Upside down, and inside out
When I leave here I'm going alone
Bar A F#
Well it's not like it, not like it hurts that much anyway

Attention, attention
F#
May I have all your eyes and ears
to the front of the room
Bar A F#
If only, if only for one second
Will you hear what I have to say
A
Oh, oh, oh did I mention
F#
When I see you it stings like hell
Bar A
to the fact that we could have something
F#
That'll never happen
Will you hear what I have to?
A
This balance, has weighed out our heart's desire
I'm trying, to make it alone
Bar A F#
Well, It's not like it hurts that much anyway
A
Upside down, and inside out
When I leave here I'm going alone
Bar A F#
But I'm dying, I'm dying to touch
Bar A F#
And it's not like it, not like it hurts much anyway
A
Attention, attention
F#
May I have all your eyes and ears
to the front of the room
Bar A F#
If only, if only for one second
Will you hear what I have to say

Oh, oh, oh did I mention
