C        Em        Am         C  
Talk is cheap, and I should know 
F              C          F             G 
I've given my everything, and it wasn't close 
C           Em     Am             C 
People mean well, but still make a mess 
F               C               F          G      C 
From now on I'm listening, and saving my breath 

C                    F 
Lately I'm losing my appetite 
            C                          F 
For all the pretty young girls and the socialites 
           C 
Who just talk 
   F                            C 
And this is what we do, we just talk 
C                           F 
Watch 'em waste breath on a magazine 
    C                         F 
Or rehash what the television shows all mean 
           C 
It's just talk 
F                               C 
And this is what we do, we just talk 

F 
Some people don't know how they really feel 
C 
Some people won't talk about what is real 
F                                  Am 
And I could never chitchat all day long 
F 
Some people just look for an open ear 
C 
Some people don't care what you want to hear 
                  D                      G 
And everybody's talking while they're stringing me along 

C    E              F 
I'll go by what you do 
       G           C 
Cause talk is cheap 
            E                F 
And I don't want to wait for you 
      G        Am 
Cause talk is cheap 
         Dm                      Am 
I don't know how you spend your time 
               Dm                   C 
But I'm done wasting all of mine 
G      C          G       B C 
Cause talk is cheap 


Lately I'm tired of politics 
And listening to the neverending arguments 
That just stall 
And this is what we do, we just stall 
Never know someone to change their mind 
After a heated debate over the moral lines 
We just crossed 
But this is what we do, we just talk 


Some people get cute and they draw the line 
Some people won't choose over left and right 
And I could never stomach all that greed 
Some people don't care enough 
Some people get scared enough 
To get talked into something that they think they should believe 


I'll go by what you do 
Cause talk is cheap 
And I don't want to wait for you 
Cause talk is cheap 
I don't know how you spend your time 
But I'm done wasting all of mine 
Cause talk is cheap 

F 
Some people, some people, some people 
       Am 
Think action is overdue 
F             
Some people, some people, some people 
Am                   G 
Can't wait, we've got work to do 

(same as chorus) 

I only speak of what I've done 

Cause talk is cheap 

And if you're listening, everyone 

But you talk when you're talking to me 


I'll go by what to do 
Cause talk is cheap 
And I don't want to wait for you 
Cause talk is cheap 
I don't know how you spend your time 
But I'm done wasting all of mine 
Cause talk is cheap
