"People In The Front Row" lyrics

"People In The Front Row"

I was outta love
And out of heart
I couldn't quite stop
Something that I didn't start
Yeah yeah, the critics said no
I didn't know how
It came, so I couldn't go
Oh oh how...

I was read on the bill
Of a second rate show
The audience asked me why but
I didn't know, oh oh
My predicament grew
But now I got friends
And I think that
My friends are you
Yeah oh oh how...

You know I looked around
At the faces I'd know
I fell in love with
The people in the front row
Oh oh how
My predicament grew
Now I got friends
And I think that my friends
Are you, yeah
Oh oh how...

You can put me here
And I'm all yours
Not for the money
And it's not for the applause
No oh no no no
'Cause after is nothing
It's doing the song
I don't have to hear a thing
To know I've been grooved on

These chords that I'm using
Are usually sad
I had to use them
They're the best chords that I have
Ha ha...
Oh yeah, this progression is usually sad
But it felt my sorrow and I wanted
It to feel me glad
Ha ha...
