[Verse 1]
Em G D
I don’t mind listening

Good conversation is my thing,
G D A
But I won’t talk about the weather, no.

Em G
I’m not rude,

That’s what most people seem to think.

Em G D
I don’t get your jokes,

Everything you just told me,

‘Cause I didn’t pay no mind,

And I know I,

Probably should try,

Every day,

Hey, how are you?
A Em
Oh, that question makes me blue,
G D A
‘Cause no one ever really answers it,
N.C. D
Awkward silences aren’t real,

It’s just something that your mind makes up,
G D A
When you’re feeling insecure.

It just don’t feel right,

Even if we talk all night,

There’d be so much left unsaid,

Tell me how much you feel,

Something honest, something real,
G
Break the surface,
D A
Of your mind.
