Intro:  B  F#  G#m    E  B  F#


B          F#            G#m       E        B      F#
   Goodbye     four leaf clovers      Hello   gone awry
B            F#                 G#m    E             B               F#
   Don't cry    the fight ain't over      Unless you let it pass you by
B                    F#            G#m
   I'm looking for a song to sing
                  E         F#
I'm looking for a friend to borrow
B                     F#    G#m                    E        F#
   I'm looking for my radio      so I might find a heart to follow
B                       F#                       G#m
   I've never been just longing for your loving
                     E               F#
I've never been just wearing down to nothing
B                       F#                    G#m
   I've never been just looking for a reason
              E                 F#      B  F#  G#m   E  F#
So that maybe you'd be thinking of me


All that I have found in reason   Is reason just to not believe
When all that you're left is treason   It's treason just to let it be
I'm looking for a song to sing
I'm looking for a friend to borrow
I'm looking for my radio so I might find a heart to follow
I've never been just longing for your loving
I've never been just wearing down to nothing
I've never been just looking for a reason
So that maybe you'd be thinking of me

      E                      B
These blue yonder dreams and second hand shoes
       F#                   B
You're so far gone that you live to lose
E                B            G#m    F#
It's too late to go home all alone
E                      B
You're the tar in that old cigar
        F#                  B
And the worn out cable on a cable car
    E                   B                   F#
And you're too tired to admit you've got to choose


I'm looking for a song to sing
I'm looking for a friend to borrow
I'm looking for my radio so I might find a heart to follow
I've never been just longing for your loving
I've never been just wearing down to nothing
I've never been just looking for a reason
So that maybe you'd be thinking of me


-I honestly cried the first time I heard that song!  How sad.
 And sincere too.  That's how it should be.  It's a great song
 on piano, but it also sounds cool on guitar.  As always, you
 can e-mail me at any time with any questions, comments or
 suggestions.  Enjoy!
