Ending

(chords) I don't know why nobody told you

How to unfold your love

I don't know how someone controlled you

They bought and sold you.

I don't know how you were diverted

You were perverted too

I don't know how you were inverted

No one alerted you.

Words

Intro

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping While my guitar gently weeps I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know why nobody told you How to unfold your love I don't know how someone controlled you They bought and sold you

I look at the world and I notice it's turning While my guitar gently weeps With every mistake we must surely be learning Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know how you were diverted You were perverted too I don't know how you were inverted No one alerted you

I look from the wings at the play you are staging While my guitar gently weeps As I'm sitting here doing nothing but aging Still my guitar gently weeps
