How It Sounds

F             C            G          Am
Everyone's hoping you can hold off the attack
F             C            G          Am
They keep telling you that you should just relax
            F             C            G          Am
But if they knew how that sounded to you
F             C            G          Am
They would know that it's something you can't do

F             C            G          Am
Everybody's telling you everything's gonna be OK
F             C            G          Am
They keep saying tomorrow's another day
            F             C            G          Am
But if they knew how that sounded to you
F             C            G          Am
They would know why you know that that's not true
F             C            G          Am
They would know why you know that that's not true

F             C            G          Am
Everyone's saying it's not as bad as it seems
F             C            G          Am
They keep talking but you don't know what they mean
            F             C            G          Am
And if they knew how that sounded to you
F             C            G          Am
They'd be alone at home and locked inside their rooms

F             C            G          Am
Everyone's telling you the reasons you should live
F             C            G          Am
They keep saying that you got so much to give
            F             C            G          Am
But if they knew how that sounded to you
F       C           G          Am
It would break their hearts in two
F       C           G          Am
It would break their hearts in two

F             C            G          Am
But they don't know, they don't know, they don't know
F             C            G          Am
So they'll keep talking and wasting their breath
F             C            G          Am
They don't know how to save your sorry soul
F             C            G          Am
So they'll keep talking till there's no words left
F             C            G          Am
They'll keep talking till there's no words left
