_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] I _ won't [Em] be connected or [Am] be easily _ [Em] inflected by [F] the growing sense of [C] self-inflected [Fm] routine
_ in our [G] day. _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ Being that long [Em] struggle _ in [Am] a metaphoric [Em] housing bubble,
_ [F] maybe find a way to [C] pass the hour, _ [Fm] make some happy [G] enter in. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] A cannon and a can _ of [C] cold, cold, bingo, _ _ _ _ _
[F] reminders _ of a day you [G] went away.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _
_ Remember at your worst [E] when you [Em] were single,
_ _ _ _ _ [F] at your best you seem to have had a [Fm] better day.

bummer.
_ _ [F] Maybe find a [C] job that won't take _ [Fm] a genius not [G] to do.
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ [C] _
You might get [Em] arrested, _ [Am] have your breath in your blood [Em] tested,
_ _ [F] and be back out [C] on the street _ [Fm] before your pension [G] starts to cool. _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ Months and weeks have passed [C] into a year, _ _ _
_ _ [F] your life has changed in some _ [G] estrionic way. _ _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ _ Sentence passed as _ paraphrased [Em] every year, _ _
_ _ [F] and you pick up trash and rag,
_ _ [Fm] beside the _ _ [G]
motorway.
[C] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [C] _
[G] I used to know [Em] your girlfriend,
_ [Am] back when you used to have a [Em] girlfriend.
_ _ [Am] _
She was nice and [C] you were not,
[G] _ [A] [Fm] but I was the big prick back [G] then too. _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ Now she's had [Em] another baby,
_ [A] and her life has [C] gone _
[G] suburban.
_ [B] _ [F] And I wonder [Am] what [C] she thinks of,
when she thinks [Fm] back now of you.
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _
_ Been better times for those that are in [C] trouble,
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ [F]
maybe _ there'll be some better [G] times for you.
_ _ _ [C] _ _ [Dm] _
_ The weight you've gained has made your [Em] head a bubble,
_ _ _ _ [F] and your buttocks are brown,
and [Fm] not her _ [G] black and blue. _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ Well no doubt [Em] I'll see you later,
[G] _ [Am] you'll have your reasons, [Em] you still hate her.
[C] But my friend, it says there is a change,
_ [F] that's been coming _ [G] over you.
_ _ _ _ [C] _
And I'll admit there is [G] a difference,
[Em] and [Am] I'll submit that this [Em] is sure, _
[F] and I guess this [C] isn't how,
when things [Fm] seem better _ than _ they were.
