verse 1 
         Dm7 
There is too much attention 
G       Dm7                G 
Paid to people who believe 
         Dm7 
That the world we live in 
   G               Dm7   G 
Really isn't round 
            Dm7        G 
Yes there's too much attention 
        Dm7                G 
Paid to people just like me 
          Dm7                 G 
Who'll confess their only aim in life 
   Dm7   G    Dm7   G 
Is down 
         Dm7 
There is too much attention 
G     Dm7                 G 
As to where we all should be 
       Dm7                G 
And to how much we should know 
           Dm7   G 
Inside how long 
            Dm7 
Yes there's too much attention 
G       Dm7             G 
And the reason I believe 
     Dm7               G               Dm7    G 
Is because we are what we are right or wrong 

      A7                      D 
So forgive me when I tell you 
        A7                 D 
I ain't got no place to go 
        A7            D 
I ain't got no-one to talk to 
           A7            G     G7 
Got no one left to say hello

verse 2 
         D#m7       G# 
There is too much attention 
        D#m7            G# 
Paid to him who shot at he 
       D#m7        G# 
And to how he got away 
           D#m7   G# 
But didn't quite 
            D#m7       G# 
Yes there's too much attention 
        D#m7                  G# 
So much so that we'll believe 
         D#m7          G# 
He's not guilty of the crime which he's 
      D#m7        G# 
Being tried 

      A#7                     D# 
So forgive me when I tell you 
        A#7                D# 
I ain't got no place to go 
        A#7           D# 
I ain't got no-one to talk to 
           A#7           G#     G#7 
Got no one left to say hello
