Crying For Attention Lyrics

    pre>intro f#m e a (3 times then d)

    (d) a e a
    Can you hear me?
    D a e a d
    Baby can you hear me?
    A e a
    Who do you think i'm talking to?
    D a e a d
    Is there anyone else near me?
    F#m
    Precious things come in my path
    Like new clothes for me to try on
    In the end they make me laugh
    E
    In the beginning they are something to rely on

    Chorus
    A e d
    I'm not crying for attention baby
    A e d
    I'm not crying for attention baby
    A e d e
    I'm not crying for attention i'm screaming to be heard
    D a e a d
    Everybody's listening but you

    (d) a e a
    What's the matter?
    D a e a d
    Well there is no need to flatter
    A e a
    How do i get you to take notice?
    D a e a d
    Do i have to break and shatter?
    F#mm
    When i feel that i am driven
    Over the edge where it's all hidden
    I hang my head and hit a table or a chair
    E
    I know my place i just can't stay there

    Chorus

    Bridge

    Dm a dm a
    It's your loving example i need to receive
    Dm a e
    I need more than a handful give it to me

    A a d a e a d
    Hey sometimes everybody has to be the centre of attraction
    A e a d a e a d
    But i i i i never expect any satisfaction
    A d a d a d
    And i'm not crying i'm not crying i'm not crying
    E
    Not crying for attention

    Chorus
    I'm not crying for attention
    Baby i'm not crying for attention
    Don't even say i am i'm not crying

    Repeats and fades with a e d over "crying" /pre>
