Verse 1:

	Eb           Ab        Eb    Ab
	Oh, don't it hurt deep inside
	        Eb         Bb7         Eb    Bb7
	To see someone do something to her
	Eb            Ab          Eb     Ab
	Oh, don't it pain to see someone cry
	      Eb             Bb7       Eb
	Oh, especially when someone is her

Chorus:

	 Eb         Gm    Fm        Bb         Eb
	Silence is golden,   but my eyes still see
	 Eb         Gm      Cm
	Silence is golden, golden
	Fm      Bb        Eb
	But my eyes still see

Verse 2:

	Talking is cheap, people follow like sheep
	Even though there is nowhere to go
	How could she tell, he deceived her so well
	Pity, she'll be the last one to know

Verse 3:
	 E         A             E            A
	How many times will she fall for his line
	 E                    B7            E     B7
	Should I tell her or should I keep cool?
	 E        A             E           A
	And if I tried, I know she'd say I lied
	 E                         B7            E
	Mind your business, don't hurt her, you fool
