Intro: Cmaj7 G (x4)
Verse
Cmaj7
The mixer on a Friday night
G
Some pretty girls and guys are here
Cmaj7
But when I look at myself on my right
G
I'm wondering if I'm really here
Cmaj7
When I talk to you I wonder
G
If I could ever really learn
Cmaj7
The way he talked to you seemed more likely that
G
I'd only ever burn
Bridge
D
My fingers
G
The chair is hot
D
To the touch it lingers
G
The light is hot
D Em C
Just like the singers of our favourite bands
Verse
Cmaj7
So I sat against the wall and
G
Leaned hard as I could into it
Cmaj7
And I thought about the mall and
G
Some places that I'd like to bid
Cmaj7
Then I thought about my Jesus
G
And meditation again
Cmaj7
The things I have I don't need
G
And the things I want, what's good in them?
G D C
But it's easy to under-stand
D G
What it is that makes me feel this way
D C
It's not so easy to make
D G
All of my problems go away
D C
Then again what else is there –
D G
Another life, some other way?
D C
I really don't know what you mean
D G D Cmaj7
I'm really trying to find that wa-ay
Verse
Cmaj7
The judge came to my house and
G
He knew about my job situation
Cmaj7
I didn't have to explain it to him
G
Took everything I said as insinuation
Cmaj7
Then he looked into my eyes and
G
Said something about you're playing a game
Cmaj7
That's when I looked a little past him pointlessly
G
Repeating what I'd said again
G D C
But it's easy to under-stand
D G
What it is that makes me feel this way
D C
It's not so easy to make
D G
All of my problems go away
D C
Then again what else is there –
D G
Another life, some other way?
D C
I really don't know what you mean
D G D Cmaj7
I'm really trying to find that wa-ay
