Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

Verse 1:
(No CAPO)
           A augmentedA
I know what's gonna happen
         E MajorE
I'll try to go to bed
           E MajorE
With fear of failure flapping
            A augmentedA
Like a fruit bat in my head


            A augmentedA
I'll sleep for half an hour
            E MajorE
The clock will ring at six
           E MajorE               A augmentedA
I'll wake up in the shower with a stomach full of bricks
           D MajorD
So I won't have any breakfast
          A augmentedA
Maybe just a little tea
           E MajorE
Like when you have to go
          A augmentedA
And get a colonoscopy
             D MajorD
Which incidentally isn't half
            A augmentedA
As disconcerting or upsetting
        E MajorE
As going for a part you know
               A augmentedA
There is no way that you're getting

Verse 2:
        A augmentedA
But anyway I'm heading
          E MajorE
Downtown for the audition
            E MajorE
Where everything I'm dreading
           A augmentedA
Will be coming to fruition
             A augmentedA
And here's what's gonna happen
            E MajorE
I'll walk in weak with hunger
           E MajorE
And there's a dozen girls
                A augmentedA
Who look like me but ten years younger

         D MajorD
I'll go into the bathroom
           A augmentedA
And I'll try to vocalize
           E MajorE            A augmentedA
And I'll be singing "minga-minga-minga-minga-ming"
              D MajorD
But I'll be hearing Sandy sucks
               A augmentedA        E MajorE
She really sucks, she really, really, really blows
      E MajorE       E MajorE
And she's old, and she's lame
     E MajorE
And then someone calls my name

Verse 3:
(CAPO I)
        A augmentedA
And here's what happens
          E MajorE
I'll walk into the room
           E MajorE             A augmentedA
The gross fluorescent lighting is inviting as a tomb
        A augmentedA
And everybody smiles
            E MajorE
They'll say its good to see ya
          E MajorE
But all I see is judges
               A augmentedA
And they'll all look like Scalia


          D MajorD              A augmentedA
And then a little banter as they look me up and down
             E MajorE           A augmentedA
And somewhere through the fog of insecurity and hate
                  D MajorD
I'll try to convince them that I'm charming
            A augmentedA      E MajorE
And I'm clever and I'm fun to have around
     E MajorE      E MajorE
But I'm starting to unravel
    E MajorE
In my head I hear the gavel

Bridge:

F#F#
Guilty!

They're gonna throw the book at me 'cuz I'm
F#F#
Guilty!

Of coming in and wasting all their time
F#F#
Guilty!

Of almost every other showbiz crime
  G+G
Not young enough!
  G+G
Not thin enough!
  G+G
Not pretty enough!
  G+G
Not good enough!


N.C.spoken:

We hereby sentence you to a lifetime of waiting tables and debilitating self-loathing

Verse 4:

sung:
            A augmentedA
But wait now someone's asking
           E MajorE
So can we hear your voice?
        E MajorE               A augmentedA
I make a lame attempt at humor: Do I have a choice?
       A augmentedA
I nod at the pianist
          E MajorE
He's always wearing black
         E MajorE
He's always in a turtleneck
           A augmentedA
With dandruff on his back


        D MajorD
No sooner do I get my note
        A augmentedA
And open up my trap
           E MajorE
Then inevitably some mealy-mouthed assistant director's
A augmentedA
Thumbs are all over his iPhone
   D MajorD
And I know he's probably tweeting
 A augmentedA        E MajorE
LOL, This girl is crap
     E MajorE
She's a fake
     E MajorE
She's a phony
      E MajorE
She could never win a Tony

Bridge:

  E MajorE                A augmentedA
And now I'm in a place I know quite well
   E MajorE                A augmentedA
I've left the world, and I've entered hell
   A augmentedA
I'm this far away from a fainting spell


  E MajorE       A augmentedA
But just before I die

(CAPO II)

 E MajorE
I finish a song
       A augmentedA
Which I oversell
        E MajorE
Somebody says thanks
       A augmentedA
And wishes me well
   A augmentedA
The next thing I know
    A augmentedA
I'm at Taco Bell
E MajorE           A augmentedA
Stuffing my face with meat


Verse 5:
            A augmentedA
I'm trying to take it slowly
          E MajorE
I'm trying to be my best
           E MajorE
I'm trying to be more holy
          A augmentedA
Less bitter and depressed
           A augmentedA
I'm reading Eckhart Tolle
          E MajorE
He makes a lot of sense
          E MajorE
I bought a Buddhist bowl
                 A augmentedA
He says he it helps you be less tense


         D MajorD
It doesn't do a thing for me
          A augmentedA
I sit there on the floor
         E MajorE
And watch a vivid sequence
        A augmentedA
Of humiliating instances from my past go by
   D MajorD
And think what kind of masochist
    A augmentedA       E MajorE
Keeps coming back for more
     E MajorE
When she knows what's gonna happen
     E MajorE
'Cuz it never doesn't happen
    E MajorE
'Cuz it always, always

Verse 5:
(CAPO III)
            A augmentedA
No! I know what's gonna happen
           E MajorE
Don't tell me that I don't
            E MajorE
And don't say that I'll rise to
          A augmentedA
The occasion 'cuz I won't


            A augmentedA
And don't say I've got talent
            E MajorE
And don't say I've got heart
            E MajorE
And don't say that I'm clever
            A augmentedA
'Cuz I know I'm pretty smart
          D MajorD
I'm smart enough to know
             A augmentedA
That I'm too stupid to admit
          E MajorE
You can't survive a diet
            A augmentedA
That consists of eating shit
           D MajorD
The trick is knowing when it's time to pack your bags
   A augmentedA     E MajorE
And say "that's it!"

   E MajorE
You know what's gonna happen
  E MajorE
I know what's gonna happen
E MajorE
Here's what's gonna happen
  A augmentedA
I quit!
  A augmentedA
I quit!
  A augmentedA
I quit!
