Verse (Riff 1)
                     A       G    F  	        G          
I was talking to your father	He never said a word
                      A      G    F            G          
I was talking to your mother	Squat and absurd
                      A       G    F   	        G          
I was talking to your cousin	He never spoke to me
                      A     G     F        	        G          
I was talking to your sister	She was married and unfree
                      A     G   F         	        G          
I was talking to the priest	He told me what to do
             A       G        F        	        G          
I kept on talking	But he never told the truth
                      A   G       F         	        G          
I was talking to the world	But they all laughed at me
                  A   G        F   	        G          
I was talking to you	Why don't you talk to me?

You never talk to me	You never try to see
As I recall, as I recall.

Verse (Riff 1)
You got me walking on water	Pretending I'm God
You got me flying	A lazy little sod
You got me creeping	Doing everything I can
To prove to you	That I really am a man

Chorus: (Riff 2)

Verse (Riff 1)

You can see my flesh wound	See my little scar
You can see me crashing	In some unknown car
You can see me dying	On some lonely road
You can see me feeling my way	But nowhere to go

Chorus: (Riff 2)

End (Riff1)
I've got a good memory	As I recall, such a good memory (repeat)
I never forget a thing, as I recall, I never forget a thing you know you had me as I recall, as I recall
Remember me, I was your friend, I was your friend, I was your friend
