Intro: Am D7sus2/F# 2x 

verse 
Am 
    I saw somebody who  
Reminded me of you  
   F  
Before you got afraid  
C    Bb               Am 
    I wish that you could've stayed that way  

verse 
Am 
    I saw a little girl  
I stopped and smiled at her  
   F 
She screamed and ran away  
 C        Bb             Am       
       It happens to me more and more these days  


Chorus 
           Dm            Am 
And these songs that you sing  
         Dm      Am 
Do they mean anything  
       Dm            F            G 
To the people you're singing them to 
            Am  
People like you 

interlude 
Am D7sus2/F# 2x  

verse 
Am 
    I saw a photograph  
                      F 
A woman in a bath of hundred dollar bills  
C                      Bb                 Am   
    If the cold doesn't kill her, money will  

verse 
Am 
    I read a magazine  
That said by seventeen  
      F 
Your life was at an end  
C                   Bb              Am 
    I'm dead and I'm perfectly content  

Chorus 
           Dm            Am 
And these songs that you sing  
         Dm      Am 
Do they mean anything  
       Dm            F            G 
To the people you're singing them to 
            Am  
People like you

Chorus  
           Dm            Am

Tonight they do
