Listen(Keyboard chords)

	        Intro: 




Verso 1: 

Well I live too loud and I talk too much 

But somehow I don’t see it as such 

Seems like what I love the most  

Is the sound of my own voice 

Verso 2: 

I pray my list and I say my piece 

I check You off but I’m incomplete 

Seems like what I’m missing most 
        A             B 
Is the sound of Your voice  


    A            E 
So why is it so hard for me 
    B                C#m      B 
To shut my mouth and let you speak 
          A                 E              B 
Why do I feel the need to always keep on talking 
        A              E 
Well I know I need to hear from You 
   B               C#m    B 
I know what I have got to do 
    D2                         E 
To find what I’ve been missing 
                            
I’ve got to learn to listen 



intro  Verso 3 

Verso 3: 

A wise man hears before he speaks 

He knows he doesn’t know everything 

I wish that sounded more like me 

But I have got so far to go 


Verso 4: 

E             D2 
   Why is my first reaction 
A             E  
   To give my own opinion 
E               D2  
   Like I could tell You something 
        A             E 
   You don’t already know 


Chorus: 
    A            E 
So why is it so hard for me 
    B                C#m      B 
To shut my mouth and let you speak 
          A                 E              B 
Why do I feel the need to always keep on talking 
        A              E 
Well I know I need to hear from You 
   B               C#m    B 
I know what I have got to do 
     D                        E 
To find what I’ve been missing 
                            
I’ve got to learn to listen 





E    D2   A   E 

E        D2

A           E 
  Listen, listen yeuh
