Intro
Em C G Em C G
[Verse 1]
Em
Never spoken with my mouth full
C G
Yeah that's a mouthful and I'm doubtful
Em
That I could get these lyrics out, oh
C G
'Cause I think fast but I sing slow
Em
If I ever started rapping
C G
They'd be laughing, they won't believe me
Em
But I got so much I wanna say
C G
So I'm thinking rappers, they got it easy
[Interlude]
Em C G Em C G
[Verse 2]
Em
Someone told me to be selfless
C G
But we are helpless without attention
Em
So if no one's paying attention
C G
Then does my voice get to your headphones
Em
You start thinking 'bout the clock ticks
C G
You get nervous, you start stressin'
Em
So how am I supposed to fit this
C G
In three minutes and thirty seconds
[Chorus]
C Em D
Listen to my aching heart
C Em D
Quick, before you skip the song
C Em D
We are human after all
C G D Em
And we don't stay for long
[Verse 3]
Em
Someone told me to be selfless
C G
But we are helpless without attention
Em
Wealthy people learn the lesson
C G
And never donate without the press there
Em
You wanna skip it if it's wordy
C G
But fit the whole song in three-thirty
Em
I thought I had the ADHD
C G
But that's a real thing and I'm just lazy
[Chorus]
C G D
Listen to my aching heart
C G D
Quick, before you skip the song
C G D
We are human after all
C G D
And we don't stay for long
[Instrumental]
C G D
C G D
[Chorus]
C G D
We are human after all
C G D
And we don't stay for long
[Interlude]

C G D
Listen to my aching heart
C G D
Will you keep this record on
C G D
If Ed Sheeran writes my song
C G D
I'll finally top the charts

If Ed Sheeran writes my song
C G D
I'll finally top the charts
