G  Em  D


[Verse 1]
A                     D/A
  Hopes dashed to the floor
                       A         D/A
Like shattered teenage dreams
A                  D/A
  Boys living next door
                    A         D/A
Are never what they seem


[Bridge]
  Bm
A walk in the park can become a bad dream
D
People are staring and following me
Bm
This is my only escape from it all
E                                   D  G
Watching a film or a face on the wa-aa-all


[Chorus] (x4)
G                         D
Robert De Niro's waiting, Talking Italian


[Verse 2]
A                D/A
  I don't need a boy
                  A         D/A 
I've got a man of steel
A                D/A
  Don't come any closer
              A         D/A
I don't wanna feel


[Bridge]
       Bm
You're breathing, you're touching, but nothing's for free
D
I never want this to happen to me
Bm
Don't try to change me, you're wasting your time
E                                        D  G
Now I've got something much better in mi-ii-ind


[Chorus] (x4)
G                         D
Robert De Niro's waiting, Talking Italian

[Breakdown]
A
Talk, talk, talk
A
Talking...

[Bridge]
  Bm
A walk in the park can become a bad dream
D
People are staring and following me
Bm
This is my only escape from it all
E                                   D  G
Watching a film or a face on the wa-aa-all


[Chorus] (x4)
G                         D
Robert De Niro's waiting, Talking Italian

[Outro]
G          D 
'talian!   Talking Italian
G
Robert De Niro's waiting, talking Italian.
