Intro: D-C-G-F (x2) D
D
What's that sound, what's that sound, what's that sound?
G C D
You got me hanging on and listening to confessions on the telephone.
D
Hear me now, hear me now, hear me now,
G C D
You beat me black and blonde, somebody tell me what the hell is going on.
F Bb C G
God save the middle child, she's never what she seems,
F Bb C D
You can't blame the middle child, she's drowning in her dreams.
D
Dumb me down, dumb me down, dumb me down,
G C D
You got the wrong address, I'm a mortar and a pestle not a garlic press.
F Bb C G
Beware the middle child, she'll bring you to your knees,
F Bb C G
She's just a little child who's fallen in between,
F Bb C G
Save the middle child, she's never what she seems,
F Bb C D
You can't blame the middle child, she's drowning in her dreams.

A ringing in my ears, from playing too loud,

I hear the ocean, I hear the crowd.
