Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
C minorCm                                  FF
You always talk, talk, talk all the time.
   C minorCm                     FF
You never let me get in a word.
C minorCm                    FF
I wish I had, I had a dime
C minorCm                               FF
For ev'ry thought I've swallowed unheard.
Bb majorBb                          C majorC
No matter what it is that I do,
Bb majorBb                                 C majorC
It's like I just can't seem to get through.

Chorus:
FF                   A minorAm
I’ve got so much to say,
    Bb majorBb            C majorC
If only you would listen.
FF                      A minorAm
I’ve tried ev'ry which way,
Bb majorBb       C majorC
And still you never listen.
FF         C7C7        DmDm
Can't you see I'm hurting?
A7A7                Bb majorBb
I couldn't be more clear.
FF
But I promise,
Bb majorBb           C majorC          FF
One day I'll make you hear.


Verse 2:
C minorCm                          FF
You know I try, try, try to explain-
       C minorCm                 FF
I’m not the kid you want me to be.
C minorCm                            FF
And yet it's all, it's all in vein--
C minorCm                           FF
You just don't wanna see the real me.
Bb majorBb                              C majorC
You think you know what I'm all about--
            Bb majorBb                   C majorC
And yet you just keep shutting me out!

If only you would listen.
FF                        A minorAm
You could prove that you care,
   Bb majorBb             C majorC
If only you would listen.
FF       C majorC         DmDm
I’m not gonna beg you--
A7A7                 Bb majorBb
You'll never see a tear.
FF          Bb majorBb            C majorC           FF
But I promise, one day, I'll make you hear.

I only want your ear.
