C    Bb           G         F 
I’ll never have a chance to say

Eb           Bb      F   
Everything I want to say,

but that’s O-K, I don’t need

   C     D     Eb E   F
to say a thing anyway

     Dm      G       C
Just want to take it in

E7      F      E7       F
See the world, watch it spin

Bb       G        C     F
Learn to play the violin

     Dm   G      C
I’ll even try to shed

E7  F     E7      F
any words from my head

Bb       G     C
think in Mentalese instead 

C     Bb           G   F 
Don't call me on a telephone

Eb            Bb   F   
I don't wanna be alone

E   D E    Am    Bb 
But I have grown out of it

   C       D       Eb E   F
so leave a message at the tone

Just want to take it in

See the world, watch it spin

Learn to play the violin

I’ll even try to shed

think in Mentalese instead 
[Chorus]
    D           Bb     G
And I’ll take a vow of silence

(Shut up, shut up, shut up)

I’ll take a vow of silence

Shut up, shut up, shut up)

[Verse 2]
C       Am         Dm         G 
Silence means that you can't speak

           C         Am        Dm     G   
You can't let things out, they stay inside

         C       Am         Dm    G
You just sit and nod like a quiet freak

        C         Am             Dm           G
And you hold your tongue and you swallow your pride

              C                        Am
And if you're travelling down the street

             Dm        G
And suddenly witness a crime

              C              Am
You've got to keep it to yourself

             Dm                  G            C  Am Dm
You've gotta keep it inside your quiet little mind

          G      C Am Dm
Until the end of time
[Chorus]
           G
And you've got to

C     Am       Dm7      G
Shut up, shut up, shut up (Seen and not heard)

C     Am       Dm7      G               C
Shut up, shut up, shut up (Not a single word)

Am      Dm7  G       C
For the rest of your life (Shut up, shut up, shut up)
[Bridge]
Dm  C      E      Am
Now I'm no silent snob

    Dm     Am   Dm      Am
But Teller and Silent Bob

Dm      C     Am    C
Tend to do an awful job

Dm  C      E         Am
But let me tell you, son

Dm    C    Dm     C
Harpo Marx is the one
I wouldn't be surprised If he didn't have a tongue [Chorus]
    D           Bb     G
And I’ll take a vow of silence

C     Am       Dm7      G
(Shut up, shut up, shut up)

D           Bb     G
I’ll take a vow of silence

C     Am       Dm7      G
(Shut up, shut up, shut up

C    Am       Dm7      G
Shut up, shut up, shut up)

D           Bb  G    C
I’ll take a vow of…

D           Bb  G    C
I’ll take a vow of…

D           Bb  G    C
I’ll take a vow of…
