Spoken Word

G             C
When I’m all alone at night
  G               C
I turn on the radio
G              C
Listen to some music
        Bb            D
But I’d try to find a talk show
G                   C
Just between me and you
G               C
Every word they say is true
G                 C
Someone speaks to me
G                C
Someone tries to tell me something
Bb      F         G
              I believe them

G                  C                   G
  I believe in the power of the spoken word
                F           C
Everything that I have ever heard
                  G
Makes sense to me
    C               G
And if you’ve got a better way then
C            G               C
Sit down and tell me what to do
    Bb   F                G
And I’ll      believe you too

G             C
When I hear a ring at night
  G               C
I pick up the telephone
     G            C
It’s usually some salesman
    Bb                  D
Who wants to talk about light bulbs
G                 C
I don’t have much choice
     G              C
It’s always good to hear a voice
G                 C
Someone speaks to me
G                 C
Some guy tries to sell me something
Bb      F         G
              I believe him

G                  C                   G
  I believe in the power of the spoken word
                F           C
Everything that I have ever heard
                  G
Makes sense to me
    C               G
And if you’ve got a better way then
C            G               C
Sit down and tell me what to do
    Bb   F                G
And I’ll      believe you too
