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
