Going Through the Motions
Aimee Mann
The Forgotten Arm (2005)

in E; capo 2nd fret, in D


         F#m
Something isn't right


  Bm      F#m    D
I don't know how I know


   A        F#m
But baby, it's despite

   Bm     F#m   D
Your dog-and-pony show


    Bm         D  A
I can hear it coming


       F#m              D  A
You're only going through the motions, baby


      Bm         D  A
With your engines humming


       F#m              D  A
You're just going through the motions, baby


 F#m              D  A
Going through the motions, baby




         F#m
Feel like I'm in jail


   Bm     F#m   D
With you and Mr. Hyde


  A         F#m
A guy who leaves a trail


 Bm    F#m   D
About a mile wide


    Bm         D  A
So it starts already


         F#m              D  A
That you're just going through the motions, baby


     Bm         D  A
You can throw confetti


         F#m              D  A
But you're still going through the motions, baby


 F#m              D  A
Going through the motions, baby




        G    A
They'll have a big parade


   G             Bm
For every day that you stay clean


       G     A
But when the trumpets fade


      G          D
You'll go under like a submarine


        Bm         D  A
And you won't see it coming


F#m   D A

        Bm         D  A
No, you won't see it coming


F#m   D A

F#m   D A

          F#m
You could have it made


  Bm     F#m    D
Up there in San Rafael


   A      F#m
But baby, I'm afraid


   Bm    A     D
I'll never see you well


       Bm         D  A
Because I've seen the tally


         F#m              D  A
And you're just going through the motions, baby


   Bm        D  A
To a big finale


         F#m              D  A
That comes from going through the motions, baby


 F#m              D  A
Going through the motions, baby


 F#m              G
Going through the motions, baby


                D      A
You're just going through the motions, baby
