[Verse 1]
E E/D# C#m
Here we are, quiet at your kitchen table
A A/G# F#m
With courtesy to little pet peeves
E E/D# C#m
Napkins on laps, the strands pulled back
A A/G# F#m
I hang the scarf and my mom's anorak
[Chorus 1]
B E E/D# C#m
Why do I tell you how I feel
A A/G# F#m
When you're just lookin' down my blouse?
B E E/D# C#m
It's something I wouldn't say out loud
A A/G# F#m
If touch could make them hear, then touch me now
A A/G# F#m
If touch could make them hear, then touch me now
E E/D# C#m
A A/G# F#m
[Verse 2]
E E/D# C#m
Talkin' to some who laugh and others scorned
A A/G# F#m
I guess humor could help me after all
E E/D# C#m
It's funny now, I'm just useless and a whore
A A/G# F#m
But I'll get a co-sign from your favorite one-man show
[Chorus 2]
B E E/D# C#m
Why do I tell you how I feel
A A/G# F#m
When you're too busy lookin' down my blouse?
B E E/D# C#m
It's something I wouldn't say out loud
A A/G# F#m
If touch could make them hear, then touch me now
A A/G# F#m
If touch could make them hear, then touch me now
A A/G# F#m
If touch could make them hear, then touch me now
B
Nah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ow
[Outro]
E E/D# C#m
Mmm-mmm--mmm
A A/G# F#m
Mm-mm-mmm, mmm-mm-mmm mm-mmm
B E E/D# C#m
Mmm, mm-mm mm-mmm-mm
A A/G# F#m E
Mm-mm-mmm, mmm-mm-mmm mm-mmm
