It was later in the day.
It's called I Realized This Afternoon.
Wow, I get [E] confused.
While Driving to Connecticut.
I Realized This Afternoon While Driving to Connecticut is the name of the tune.
And [C] everything in it is true.

Last Tuesday [C] I sat across [D] another [Am] stupid record label poster.
It's only [Em] I played the [C] notes to [E] perfect.
She tried to be more like the strokes.
It made me so depressive.
Now I can't [D] get out of bed.
You wouldn't know an artist if I [E] kicked him in the head.
Saw the brass ring.
[Em] I'm never ever [C] getting it.
I [G] realized this [Am] afternoon while driving [G] to Connecticut.
[D] [Am]
[C] [A]
[Am]
[G] [E] West Hartford is [C] pretty far [Em] from Philadelphia.
About five hours in [C] the car.
[G] It gave [Am] me [C] time to think about [D] my life.
[F#] And now I really have no [D] doubt.
Unless I get a nipple [C] ring.
Unless I [E] shave my head.
[D]
Better call the [E] doctor to pronounce my career dead.
Saw the brass [Em] ring.
I'm [E] never ever getting [C] it.
I realized [D] this afternoon [Am] while driving to [C] Connecticut.
[G]
[Am] [G]
I [Em] really wasn't done with the world record execs who have ears to hear a well constructed [G] melody.
That kind of person might do well with me.
[E] But now it [Em] seems the only one you need is your hungry and you play too [G] poor.
And shout out [D] some obscenity.
[C] And since I [G] don't do that the hell with me.
[D]
[G] [Am] [Em]
[G] [A] Murph?
Shut [C] your mouth.
[G]
[Am]
I'll milk it if I get a response.
[Dm] There's supposed to be an A&R [C] yet they can't [D] understand.
A song I play on my [C] guitar but sounds played by [D] a band.
They'd live enough to sign me [C] but they're sorry [D] they're not able.
[A] Cause how we did did not [G] seem enough units for the label.
Or it's just because my face [D] is something less than photographic.
[Dm] Or I don't have 14 year [E] old girls inside my damn apartment.
And I'm repeating the pathetic lame excuses.
You have to keep on coming [G] all the way to Massachusetts.
[C] [G] Which is further than Connecticut if you're coming from Philadelphia.
[C] I saw the brass [Am] ring and I'm [Em] never ever getting [C]
it.
[Em] I saw the [D] brass ring and I'm [Em] never ever [C] getting it.
[G]
[Em] I saw the brass ring [Am] and I'm never [G] ever ever [C] ever ever ever.
