[Intro]
D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7
D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7

[Verse 1]
D             Dmaj7
Don't talk,         I will listen
D             Dmaj7
don't talk,         you keep your distance
     G                           D
I'd rather hear some truth tonight
          Em                     D
Than entertain your lies
      G                        D
So take you poison silently
Em                                       A
Let me be, let me close my eyes

[Verse 2]
D             Dmaj7
Don't talk,         I'll believe it
D             Dmaj7
Don't talk,         listen to me instead
   G                         D
I know that if you think of it
         Em                           D
Both long enough and hard
        G                                  D
The drink you drown your troubles in
Em                                     A
Is the trouble you're in now

[Chorus 1]
Em             D               A
Talk, talk, talk about it
          Em        D            A
If you talk as if you care
       Em             D             A
But when your talk is over
                     D                  G
You tilt that bottle in the air
D                 G                           A
Tossing back more than your share

[Verse 3]
D             Dmaj7
Don't talk,         I can guess it
D             Dmaj7
Don't talk,         well, now you're restless
               G                              D
And you need somewhere to put the blame
       Em                    D
For how you feel inside
          G                               D
You'll look for a close and easy mark
        Em                             A
And you'll see me as fair game

[Ulangi Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]
       Em            D      A
You talk, talk, talk about it
       Em        D        A
You talk as if you care
       Em         D        A
I'm marking every word
              D                            G
And can tell this time for sure
D                       G                   A
Your talk is the finest I have heard

[Verse 4]
D                 Dmaj7
So don't talk,         I am sleeping
D             Dmaj7
Don't talk,         let me go on dreaming
                 G                            D
How your eyes they glow so fiercely
         Em                     D
I can tell that you're inspired
           G                              D
By the name that you just chose for me
        Em                                   A
Now what was it? Oh, never mind it

[Chorus 3]
             Em            D         A
We will talk, talk, talk about this
Em                 D        A
When your head is clear
       Em              D                A
I'll discuss this in the morning
       D             G
But until that
D              G                        A
you may talk but I won't hear
