All I Want To Hear You Say

E       B            F#m     C#m
Your body shape was a warning sign
       A    E        E  B
With a face made for TV
E        B               F#m     C#m
I knew it was only just a matter of time
         A            E             E    B
You were caught in the headlights of your dream


[Pre-Chorus]

               A         B
Now we live in different worlds
                   A
'Cause I'm still working shifts
                  B
While you're putting on pearls
            A       B
And I just want to know
                  A
If you're in Manchester will you come to my show?

And say


[Chorus]

  C#m
How you doing?
E                    A
Well, I want you to know that I am doing
E
Better than I was before
 C#m
How you doing?
 E                 A
Well, I want you to know
     B
That really
               A                 E
I'm on your news feed twice a day
                 B                        C#m
I see you in the papers, I go to all your plays
              A                    E
And even if I want to, I can't look away
                  B
It ain't easy to forget you

It's all I want to hear you say


[Verse 2]

 E          B              F#m      C#m
Sometimes I dream about you running away
               A         E         E  B
You bring your hair and makeup to my flat
   E         B            F#m       C#m
Oh, heaven on earth is a hell of a place
          A        E               E   B
No one can judge me for trying to get back


[Pre-Chorus]

               A      B
But that was a while ago
           A                        B
And our delicate youth is starting to get old
            A        B
And I just want to know
                  A
If you're in town tonight

I'd like to say hello and


[Chorus]

  C#m
How you doing?
E                    A
Well, I want you to know that I am doing
E
Better than I was before
 C#m
How you doing?
 E                 A
Well, I want you to know
     B
That really
               A                 E
I'm on your news feed twice a day
                 B                        C#m
I see you in the papers, I go to all your plays
              A                    E
And even if I want to, I can't look away
                  B
It ain't easy to forget you

It's all I want to hear you say


[Bridge]

A                     B
I want to hear you say
             E      B            A    G#m     A
There's a part of me you'll take away forever
              B
And that would do
   C#m
So, how you doing?
E                    A
Well, I want you to know that I am doing
   E
Better than I was before


[Chorus]

 C#m
How you doing?
 E                 A
Well, I want you to know
     B
That really
               A                 E
I'm on your news feed twice a day
                 B                        C#m
I see you in the papers, I go to all your plays
              A                    E
And even if I want to, I can't look away
                  B
It ain't easy to forget you

It's all I want to hear you say

[Instrumental]

A E B C#m

[Outro]

          A
Even if I want to
             E
I can't look away
                 B
It ain't easy to forget you
