   Put on the TV, flick through the stations
   Is it the truth or a misinterpretaion?
   He doesn't care all he cares  about is going out  tonight
   He tucks his shirt in, and does his hair nice
   He's got to run to catch the bus  and pays full price
   Ten minutes late so he takes  a deep breath and then goes  inside
 Now he's sitting  on the sofa wanting  to go over
 He hasn't  had a shave so he looks a little older
   And he knows that if the  truth be told he's got no  chance
 Yeah he's sitting  on the sofa wanting  to go over he changes  onto doubles so he does't
 as sober
   All the drink oh it's making  him think he's got more  than a chance
   So he stumbles  down the hallway
   His body's tired  but in his mind  hes wide awake
   He's not thinking  about the foreplay
 He's just  a little boy who didn't realise
 You don't look  with your hands you look with your eyes she says
   You don't look  with your hands you look  with your eyes she says
   You don't look  with your hands you look  with your eyes she says
   You don't look  with your hand you look  with your eyes
   All he wanted  was affection
   It was so rude  of her to blatanty  reject him in that way
   Just a little  misunderstanding
 And now it's all  too late
 The fists  fly in with a fury of rage
   So he spills  out to the garden
   The windows steam  up with them try  to see the action from inside
   Oh but please  dont wake the neighbours
 He's just  a little lad who didn't realise
 You dont look  with your hands you look with your eyes he says
   You don't look  with your hands you look  with your eyes she says
   You don't look  with your hands you look  with your eyes she says
   No you dont  undertand you dont  realise she says
   You dont look  with your hands you look  with you eyes
 Tell me what you think. Any corrections/suggestions welcome.

[A]

  [D]   Put on the TV, flick through the stations
 [F#m]    Is it the truth or a [Em]misinterpretaion?
  [D]   He doesn't care all he c[F#m]ares about is going [Em]out tonight
  [D]   He tucks his shirt in, and does his hair nice
 [F#m]    He's got to run to catch the [Em]bus and pays full price
  [D]   Ten minutes late so he t[F#m]akes a deep breath and then g[Em]oes inside

Now he's sit[Bm]ting on the sofa wa[F#m]nting to go over
He h[Em]asn't had a shave so he looks a little older
 [Bm]    And he knows that if [F#m]the truth be told he's got [Em]no chance
Yeah he's si[Bm]tting on the sofa wa[F#m]nting to go over he ch[Em]anges onto doubles so he does't
as sober
 [Bm]    All the drink oh it's m[F#m]aking him think he's got m[Em]ore than a chance

 [Bm]    So he st[F#m]umbles down the ha[Em]llway
 [Bm]    His body's t[F#m]ired but in his m[Em]ind hes wide awake
 [Bm]    He's not th[F#m]inking about the for[Em]eplay
He's j[Bm]ust a little boy who didn't re[F#m]alise
You don't [Em]look with your hands you look with your eyes she says
  [D]    [Em]    You don't l[Bm]ook with your hands you l[A]ook with your eyes she says
  [D]    [Em]    You don't l[Bm]ook with your hands you l[A]ook with your eyes she says
  [D]    [Em]    You don't l[F#m]ook with your hand you l[Em]ook with your eyes

[Bm]   [Em]   [Bm]   [Em]

 [Bm]    All he w[F#m]anted was af[Em]fection
 [Bm]    It was so r[F#m]ude of her to bl[Em]atanty reject him in that way
 [Bm]    Just a l[F#m]ittle misunders[Em]tanding
And now it's [Bm]all too [F#m]late
The f[Em]ists fly in with a fury of rage

 [Bm]    So he s[F#m]pills out to the g[Em]arden
 [Bm]    The windows s[F#m]team up with them [Em]try to see the action from inside
 [Bm]    Oh but p[F#m]lease dont wake the nei[Em]ghbours
He's j[Bm]ust a little lad who didn't re[F#m]alise
You dont l[Em]ook with your hands you look with your eyes he says
  [D]    [Em]    You don't l[Bm]ook with your hands you l[A]ook with your eyes she says
  [D]    [Em]    You don't l[Bm]ook with your hands you l[A]ook with your eyes she says
  [D]    [Em]    No you d[Bm]ont undertand you d[A]ont realise she says
  [D]    [Em]    You dont l[F#m]ook with your hands you l[Em]ook with you eyes [D]
