Story Behind The Song
THIS SONG REFLECTS THE CONTRAST BETWEEN SOMEONE PLACING EMPHASIS ON MONY AND WEALTH, AND THAT THE LIFE SURROUNDING THIS WEALTH IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO. THE SONG DECLARES THAT IS WHAT YOU SAY! BUT I SAY DIFFERENTLY.
Song Description
THIS SONG IS ADDRESSED TO A PERSON OR FRIEND WHO PUTS MORE IMPORTANCE IN MONEY AND MATERIAL THINGS, WHEN THATS NOT WHAT THE SINGER IS CONCERNED ABOUT. MONEY CAN BUY YOU FRIENDS AND FAST CARS, BUT IT CANT TAKE YOU TO THE ULTIMATE HAPPINESS WE ALL SEARCH FOR.

Lyrics
YOU SAY © 2005 Sean Daly
Intro
YOU SAY YOUR LIFE IS A WHOLE LOT BETTER THAN MINE
YOU?RE WAY OUT OF LINE YOU?RE OUT OF YOUR MIND
YOU SAY YOUR FRIENDS ARE THE BEST THAT MONEY CAN BUY
BUT I DON?T KNOW WHY THEY?RE BLEEDING YOU DRY
YOUR HOME WAS BUILT FROM THE FINEST STONE IN THE LAND
YOU?RE THE MAN WITH THE PLAN, WHAT YOU DONT UNDERSTAND
CHORUS
F#7SUS Em F?
IS I DON?T GIVE A DAMN, OH MAN
Bm /A G
THE WHOLE WORLDS BUILT ON SAND
A Bm/A A/C#
IT?S TEARING YOU ASUNDER
I KNOW YOU BUT YOU WILL NEVER KNOW ME
AND YOU DON?T HAVE
THE KEY TO UNLOCK THE DOOR TO MY WORLD
YOU SAY YOU SAY YOUR LIFE IS O.K
I SAY I SAY I?M GOING MY WAY
WITH LOVE AND LIFE, AND EVERYTHING IN SITE GUITAR SOLO
YOU SAY YOUR CAR IS A WHOLE LOT FASTER THAN MINE
WELL I?M TAKING MY TIME SO I CAN READ ALL THE SIGNS
YOU SAY THE WORLD IS SITTING IN THE PALM OF YOUR HANDS YOU?RE THE ONE IN COMMMAN BUT IM THE LAST ONE TO STAND
CHORUS
