Tuning My Guitar
Melanie
[Verse 1] I’m thinking what I’m doing I’m thinking what I’ve done I’m thinking ’bout my mother Who never thought I’d come Quite this far from nowhere To hear myself be sung But I still haven’t forgotten I used to do it just for fun [Chorus] When all the ones around me Would wonder if they saw Or heard me singing somewhere Tuning my guitar [Verse 2] Knock once I got ten minutes And every night’s the same Sometimes I wish I wasn’t in it When I hear them call my name Same people all around me And I wonder who they are I know they’re not my family And they’re not my friends by far [Chorus] They’re all the ones around me I wonder who they are They hide behind my curtain And they hope I’ll be a star [Verse 3] An’ they say "Get out and sell them" But selling’s not my aim I’m gonna sing the life I’m living And try to ease the pain [Chorus] Of all the ones around me No matter who you are You hide and you look uncertain But you hope - hope I’ll be a star And all the ones all around me I don’t care who you are Tonight you’re gonna hold the curtain I’m tuning my guitar... [Bridge] N.C. Am All the ones... All the ones around me [Chorus] Who do you think that you are Tonight you’re gonna hold the curtain I’m tuning my guitar All the ones around me I don’t care who you are Tonight you’re gonna hold the curtain I’m tuning my guitar...
