Lyrics
He needs a quiet room
With a lock to keep him in
It's just a quiet room
And he's there
He plays an old guitar
With a coin found by the phone
It was his friend's guitar
That he played
Mm-hmm, mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-hmm, mm-mm-mm-mm

He's never been in love
But he knows just what love is
He says nevermind
And no one speaks
He thinks he drinks too much
'Cause when he tells his two best friends
I think I drink too much

No one speaks
No one speaks
No one speaks
Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm

He plays an old guitar
With a coin found by the phone
It was his friend's guitar

That he played
When he plays
No one speaks
No one speaks
When he plays
No one speaks
