Empty Crowd
         written 2005

N/C     G                  C                        D
I got a story to tell but nobody wants to listen to me
            G                               C                      A
They're all thinkin "where did I go wrong, what happened to my destiny"
G                             C                      D
I'm playin my guitar, but I don't think anybody can hear
           G                                C        D       G
They ain't lost in the music 'cause they're drownin in their beer


CHORUS:
          G                   C       Bb  D
I sing my songs, to an empty crowd
G                                       D                      C   Bb  D  A
Barin' all my personal thoughts, ain't nothin but thinkin out loud
G                                       C        Bb      D
Nobody's thinkin' 'bout me, they're all gone and out and down
         G               N/C              C   Bb  D  A
I'm just singin' my songs   to an empty crowd

There's a guy down front completely ignorin my words
Brunette by his side she's cryin into his shirt
She's beggin him not to go, but he ain't listenin to a thing that she said
Images of a blond rollin' 'round in his head

Pretty young thing eyein' me from the back
Man by her side, he looks fit to attack
A personal scuffle I don't want to get involved
They think that with the beer their problems can be solved

CHORUS

BREAK

Now this place is empty but tomorrow night'll be the same
Everywhere I go, everybody's on another plane
They keep ignorin' me, 'cause I ain't nobody at all
I just fly with the music and pray that I won't fall

CHORUS (2x)
