AAttention, attention
May I have all your eyes and ears to the front of the room 
Bar A  
If only, if only for one second
AThis table, has taken a turn for the worst
Rock bottom, and over the edge
Bar A  
Well, it's not like it hurts that much anyway
AUpside down, and inside out
When I leave here I'm going alone
Bar                                            A  F#  
Well it's not like it, not like it hurts that much anyway
AAttention, attention
May I have all your eyes and earsF#  
to the front of the room
Bar                         A  F#  
If only, if only for one second
Will you hear what I have to say
AOh, oh, oh did I mention
When I see you it stings like helF#l
                                                      Bar A  
to the fact that we could have something
That'll never happenF#  
Will you hear what I have to?
AThis balance, has weighed out our heart's desire
I'm trying, to make it alone
          Bar                   A  F#  
Well, It's not like it hurts that much anyway
AUpside down, and inside out
When I leave here I'm going alone
              Bar                          A  F#  
But I'm dying, I'm dying to touch
Bar                                           A  F#  
And it's not like it, not like it hurts much anyway
AAttention, attention
May I have all your eyes and earsF#  
to the front of the room
Bar                         A  F#  
If only, if only for one second
Will you hear what I have to say
