Everybody's talkin' at me.

I don't hear a word they're sayin',
 6 6  6   6  6  -5 -5  5
Only the echoes of my mind.
 6  6   -6  6    5  4
People stoppin' starin',
-6 -6   -6   5   6 5
I can't see the faces,
6  6  6    6  6  -5  -5    5
Only the shadows of their eyes.

Sailin' on a summer breeze
 -6  6   -6 6 -6  6  6   5   4   4 
Skippin' over the ocean like a stone.
