D#          C
He needs a quiet room
D#      C
With a lock to keep him in
D#           C
It's just a quiet room
D#   D     C
And he's there

Chorus:
He plays an old guitar
With a coin found by the phone
It was his friend's guitar
That he played

He's never been in love
But he knows just what love is
He says never mind
And no one speaks

He thinks he drinks too much
'Cause when he tells his two best friends
"I think I drink too much"
No one speaks, no one speaks, no one speaks

Chorus

D#    D   C  D#
When he plays
 D C     D#
No one speaks
No one speaks
When he plays
No one speaks
