Dm | Dm/C | G7 | Bb | Dm | Cadd9 | Dm | Dm

  Dm          Dm/C        G7                Bb
I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
Dm            C          G	  A
  While my guitar gently weeps
  Dm          Dm/C        G7           Bb
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
Dm	      Dm/C	 F	  A
  Still my guitar gently weeps

D             F#  Bm     F#
 I don't know why nobody told you
Em         Em7       A	     A
  How to unfold your love
D	      F#  Bm         F#
 I don't know how someone controlled you
Em		  Em7  A	A
  They bought and sold you

  Dm          Dm/C        G7          Bb
I look at the world and I notice it's turning
Dm            C          G	  A
  While my guitar gently weeps
     Dm       Dm/C         G7        Bb
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Dm            Dm/C       F	  A
  Still my guitar gently weeps

D	      F#  Bm	     F#
 I don't know how you were diverted
Em	      Em7    A       A
  You were perverted too
D 	      F#  Bm         F#
 I don't know how you were inverted
Em        Em7	 A	A
  No one alerted you

  Dm            Dm/C         G7           Bb
I look from the wings at the play you are staging
Dm            C          G	  A
  While my guitar gently weeps
   Dm	       Dm/C	  G7 	      Bb
As I'm sitting here doing nothing but aging
Dm	      Dm/C       F	  A
  Still my guitar gently weeps
