Verse 1 I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping While my guitar gently weeps I look at the floor, and I see it needs sweeping Still my guitar gently weeps Chorus 1 I don't know why nobody told you How to unfold your love I don't know how someone controlled you They bought and sold you Verse 2 I look at the world, and I notice it's turning While my guitar gently weeps With every mistake, we must surely be learning Still my guitar gently weeps Chorus 2 I don't know how you were diverted You were perverted too I don't know how you were inverted No one alerted you Verse 3 I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping While my guitar gently weeps I look, look at you all Still my guitar gently weeps Outro Still my guitar gently weeps
