F#m A E
I don’t mind listening

Good conversation is my thing,

But I won’t talk about the weather, no.

F#m A
I’m not rude,

Nor am I shy,
B F#m
But honey, I’m not gonna lie,
A E B
That’s what most people seem to think.

I don’t get your jokes,

Hey, how are you?

‘Cause no one ever really answers it,

Awkward silences aren’t real,

It’s just something that your mind makes up,

When you’re feeling insecure.

Something honest, something real,

Break the surface,

Of your mind.
