Voices Carry Lyrics - Aimee Mann

Pre> 

G bb c :|| 

Verse 1: 

Bb c g 

In the dark, I like to read his mind 

Bb c g 

But I'm frightened of the things I might find 

Bb f 

Oh, there must be something he's thinking of 

G 

To tear him away 

Bb f 

When I tell him that I'm falling in love 

G 

Why does he say 

*** chorus: 

Am c g 

Hush hush keep it down now voices carry 

Am c g 

Hush hush keep it down now voices carry 

F 

Uh-uh 

*** verse 2: 

I try so hard not to get upset bb c g 

Because I know all the trouble I'll get bb c g 

Oh, he tells me tears are something to hide bb f 

And something to fear g 

And I try so hard to keep it inside bb f 

So no one can hear g 

*** chorus: 

Hush hush keep it down now voices carry am c g 

Hush hush keep it down now voices carry am c g 

Hush hush keep it down now voices carry am c g 

Uh-uh f 

*** bridge the bass notes are g-d-g-d bb-f-bb-f I *think* the chords 

Are something like g <---> bbma7 

He wants me g 

But only part of the time bbma7 

He wants me g 

If he can keep me in line bbma7 

*** coda 

Hush hush keep it down now voices carry am c g 

Hush hush keep it down now voices carry am c g 

Hush hush shut up now voices carry am c g 

Hush hush keep it down now voices carry am c g 

Oh hush hush, darling, she might overhear am c g 

Hush, hush - voices carry am c g 

He said shut up - he said shut up am c g 

Oh God can't you keep it down (g) am c 

Voices carry g 

Hush hush voices carry am c g 

I wish he would let me talk. am c g
