Listening Lyrics & Tabs by Adam Tell
Listening
guitar chords lyrics
There it is, I finally figured it out
Gimme just a second, let me jot it down
I won't let another moment slip by
It's right here, no more searching anymore
It checks out by the happy couple next door
They use this answer all the time
I'll try it out, it can't be that hard to do
The first week, sure, like breaking in new shoes
But it won't be long before it's second nature
I feel calm. It's given me clarity
Shaping all my words and carrying my feet
Never been so hopeful of the future
I know I've made progress, but I want it to breathe
I haven't been sharing it with anybody but me
I'm being critical, retuning my strings
I know I've made progress, but I want it to breathe
I haven't been sharing it with anybody but me
I'm being critical, retuning my strings
Don't we all have boxes full of broken things
I've got the song, I've found my words
I need to open up my ears and do some listening
I need to do some listening
Stay sharp, and handle yourself with care
Search for the truth, and don't chase the dare
You can so lost without warning
Have faith in the people who taught you well
And don't ever stop listening to yourself
You both know what's best for your journey
So step up, make your case, and take aim
Shoot down your guilt, release the blame
Cause I'm done with counting the score
I think back on the night I took you home
And we dragged the fighting to the phones
What the hell were we arguing for?
I'm taking my heartbreaks and setting them free
Cause none of that matters where I'm going to be
I'm being critical, retuning my strings
Don't we all have boxes full of broken things
I've got the song, I've found my words
I need to open up my ears and do some listening
A little more listening
I know you think you've gone too far
Too much remorse, too many scars
It's such a shame you've been so vain
But it's not too late to turn around
Backtrack, and take the higher ground
Everyone you love is waiting
I'm being critical, retuning my strings
Don't we all have boxes full of broken things (full of fixable things)
I've got the song, I've found my words
I need to open up my ears and do some listening
I need to do some listening
