G
Watch your step or you might fall
    Em
You act like you're a know-it-all
       C                           D
Yeah I used to do that, I used to be like that,
             G
I'm still a bit like that

You might think you found the one
Until your heart gets ripped and torn
Yeah I used to feel bad, I used to feel like that
I still feel a bit like that

Chorus:
C            D                G
But I'm not searching for the answer
C        D               G
I'm not looking for the truth
C         D                 G
I'm just talking through a speaker
G              C               D                G
Because that's all that I have ever learned to do

Use your mind and make it talk
Cause in this world it's all you've got
We all fall down from the highest clouds to
the lowest ground

The loneliness is worst of all
When you've got no one else to call
Feeling kind of sad when the times are bad,
the times are getting bad

Chorus:
But I'm not searching for the answer
No, I'm not looking for the truth
I'm just talking through a speaker
Because that's all that I could ever learn to do
Because that's all that I have ever learned to do

What about you?...

So watch your step or you might fall
You act like you're a know-it-all
Yeah I used to do that, I used to be like that
I'm still a bit like that
