[Intro] D  Am  C  G
 
D
I tried to talk to my piano
Am
I tried to talk to my guitar
C
Talked to my imagination
G
Confided in to alcohol
D
I tried and tried and tried some more
Am
Told secrets 'til my voice was sore
C
Tired of empty conversation
G
'Cause no one hears me anymore
 
D
A hundred million stories
 
And a hundred million songs
       Am
I feel stupid when I sing
             C
Nobody's listening to me
         G
Nobody's listening
D
I talked to shooting stars
 
But they always get it wrong
       Am
I feel stupid when I pray
             C
So, why am I praying anyway?
            G
If nobody's listening
 
D                       Am
Anyone, please send me anyone
               C
Lord, is there anyone?
       G
I need someone
D                    Am
Anyone, please send me anyone
               C
Lord, is there anyone?
       G
I need someone
 
( D   Am   C   G )

D
I used to crave the world's attention
Am
I think I cried too many times
C
I just need some more affection
G
Anything to get me by
 
D
A hundred million stories
 
And a hundred million songs
       Am
I feel stupid when I sing
             C
Nobody's listening to me
         G
Nobody's listening
D
I talked to shooting stars
 
But they always get it wrong
       Am
I feel stupid when I pray
             C
So, why am I praying anyway?
            G
If nobody's listening

D                       Am
Anyone, please send me anyone
               C
Lord, is there anyone?
       G
I need someone
D                  Am
Anyone, please send me anyone
               C
Lord, is there anyone?
       G
I need someone
     D            Am
Oh, anyone, I need anyone
      C             G
Oh, anyone, I need someone
 
D
A hundred million stories
 
And a hundred million songs
       Am
I feel stupid when I sing
             C
Nobody's listening to me
              G
Nobody's listening
