Tom: D
D Bm
Lauren's gonna write the great American novel
A G
As soon as she remembers how to hold a pencil
D Bm
With prose so tight you could watch the heart pulse
A G
Lines so funny that the pages tremble
[Chorus]
Bm G
But who's gonna hear my song through the wall
D A
And say "don't change a thing, play it just like that"
Bm Bb
Yeah, who's gonna hear my song through the wall
D A Bm
And sing it right back until you come back to me
G D A
Lauren, Lauren, Lauren
[Instrumental]
Bm G D A
[Verse 2]
D Bm
When Lauren hits the chords she'll put the kind of noise out
A G
The queer kids with cute haircuts wanna tell their moms about
D Bm
Quiet kind of people do the most important shouting
A G
And Lauren, I'll yell with you past the shadow of a doubt
[Chorus]
Bm G
But who's gonna hear my song through the wall
D A
And say "don't change a thing, play it just like that"
Bm Bb
Yeah, who's gonna hear my song through the wall
D A Bm
And sing it right back until you come back to me
G D A
Lauren, Lauren, Lauren
[Bridge]
D Bm
Well, Lauren don't get better, no, she gets the best it's true
Bm A G
And compassion lights the way she moves and everything she do
D Bm
Lauren, when your space is empty, I'm a little empty too
Bm A G
And so is anyone who's had the pleasure of knowing you
[Chorus]
Bm G
But who's gonna hear this song through the wall
D A
And say "don't change a thing, play it just like that"
Bm Bb
Yeah, who's gonna hear this song through the wall
D A Bm
And sing it right back until you come back to me
G D A
Lauren, Lauren, Lauren
Bb Bm
Hey!!
G D A
Lauren, Lauren! Lauren
Bb
Hey!
