  			verse 1 
A                                                                 C 
I am not what I once used to be, I was once what I am but now I'm not 
A                                                                                          C 
and even though you'll find some spirit in this tune you will never understand my point of view 
D                   E              D                    F 
and it feels such a cool sensation living life alive as God's creation 
E 
you don't know me, you can't see my face when you look in the mirror 
G 
someone else is always looking back at you 
E 
you try to grow up but you know you're gonna to be a faliure 
E                                                     D                     A 
so you stay young and hide your head deep within this tune on a Sunday afternoon 

verse 2 
A 
I got something and I feel it in my head 
C 
I write the songs and make them rhyme and play them once again 
C          A 
but do you notice or even care a bit for what I say 
D                                            E 
for you simply entertainment flowing from my brain 
A             C                   A 
your head, my hand, your touch my love 
A                      C 
I see your face on the cover of a record 

I know you feel that you have to play along 
E                                          D               A 
as Im writing down the lyrics to this tune on  Sunday afternoon 

Middle 8 
E 
and in this world of truth, you have to sit down and write yourself a tune 
G 
or you'll be forgotten in the future which will be here before to soon 

verse 3 
A 
if you feel that you're alive then you'd better join the race 
C 
if you ever see me cry then you'd better dry my face 
A 
if you think that I am good then you'd better tell me soon 
E                                  D                         A 
for it my be that it all came into bloom on this Sunday afternoon.
