Em                            Am
I hear the ringing of the telephone,
   B7              C               G
No one's home, and none of you can reach me
    B7               Em
i'm alone and I feel fine.

Em                                Am
There's nothing anyone could sell to me,
        B7               C             G
there's nothing new, and none of can teach me
        B7                 Em
but i'm sure that you will try.

    Am                     Em
i'm tired of living in the modern world,
     B7              Em
with pretty boys and plastics girls
C              G          B7
broken hearts, vanity's a disease.

Em                      Am
I hear my music on the radio.
B7                    C
What's that song from long ago?
G
They're still playing it.
      B7                 Em
is it saying anything to you?

Em                     Am
Pretty people in the magazines.
     B7           C
They play part of Kings and Queens.
G
Hair and make up
    B7                Em
can cover up the ulgy truth.

[chorus]

B7                                  Em
it really doesn't mean a thing to me.
B7                                  Em
It really doesn't mean a thing to me.

[Verse 1]

[chorus]

B7                                  Em
it really doesn't mean a thing to me.
B7                                  Em
It really doesn't mean a thing to me.
B7                                  Em
It really doesn't mean a thing to me.
