Crying For Attention
Graham Parker

(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?

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

In the beginning they are something to rely on

Everybody's listening but you

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

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

Don't even say I am I'm not crying
