[Verse 1]
F# G Thought I was laying in the gutter in A Bm Milk cartons and bones F# G But I was standing on a mountain top A Bm Looking over your homes
[Verse 2]
F# G Thought I was laying my garden with A Bm My hands deep in soil F# G But I was there on an island A Bm Shooting flares at your boat
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
F# G Thought I was soothing like a violin A Bm Confessing new rain F# G But I was piping like a trumpet A Bm Frantic for fame
[Verse 4]
F# G Thought I was built like a building's built A Bm Iron, concrete and stone F# G I realize I'm just a hack actor A Bm Finished playing my role
[Chorus]
D G Your reading my thoughts D G Dreams old men dream D G It's just like when we were kids D G We'd lay around wondering D G Bm We try to listen to what they say D G Bm We try to listen to what they say
[Verse 5]
F# G Thought I was writing for a hundred hours A Bm Looking straight into me F# G But I was reading on the news paper A Bm Obituaries
[Verse 6]
F# G Thought I was nervous like a mailman A Bm Reading your letters, dear F# G But I was at our anniversary A Bm Toasting 30 years
[Chorus]
D G Your reading my thoughts D G Dreams old men dream D G It's just like when we were kids D G We'd lay around wondering D G Bm We try to listen to what they say D G Bm We try to listen to what they say

[Bridge]
D Push my piano outside Bm I don't care, I don't care D Beneath the meteor black sky Bm I don't care, I don't care D The neighbours will complain Bm Let them stare, let them stare D Who knows where the time goes? Bm I don't care, I don't care
