Verse 1:
A augmentedA Dsus2Dsus2
Climb to the top of the greasy pole
A augmentedA Dsus2Dsus2
Served my time in the capital
A augmentedA Dsus2Dsus2
Trying to say something relatable
A augmentedA Dsus2Dsus2
Like, "How are things in general?"
A augmentedA Dsus2Dsus2 E MajorE
I've got nothing to protect
Except the image I project
A augmentedA Dsus2Dsus2 E MajorE
Strangers stop and pay respects
E MajorE
Ask me if I've been alright
Dsus2Dsus2
In the pale morning light
F# minorF#m E MajorE
A augmentedA simplicity calls to me
Dsus2Dsus2 E MajorE
Saying when they tell you they understand
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
That's your cue to get out while you still can
Dsus2Dsus2 E MajorE
Cash it in and cancelling all your plans
A augmentedA
Ah who could blame you?
A augmentedA Dsus2Dsus2
Dying to own your own property
A augmentedA Dsus2Dsus2
But National Trust bought the cemetery
A augmentedA Dsus2Dsus2
Even burning in hells not a guarantee
A augmentedA Dsus2Dsus2
No gravity under the apple tree
A augmentedA Dsus2Dsus2 E MajorE
Twenty degrees in February
You and meteorology
A augmentedA Dsus2Dsus2 E MajorE
I owe a couple of apologies
E MajorE
Don't ask me if I've been alright
Dsus2Dsus2
In the pale morning light
F# minorF#m E MajorE
A augmentedA simplicity calls to me
Dsus2Dsus2 E MajorE
Saying when they tell you they understand
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
That's your cue to get out while you still can
Dsus2Dsus2 E MajorE
Cash it in and cancel all your plans
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
You could bury everything under sand
Dsus2Dsus2 E MajorE
You could probably have whatever you like
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
But you could never handle the simple life
Dsus2Dsus2 E MajorE
Oh you would never settle for just the sides
A augmentedA
Who could blame you?
E MajorE
Do I look like I'm alright?
Dsus2Dsus2
In the pale morning light
F# minorF#m E MajorE
A augmentedA simplicity calls to me
E MajorE F# minorF#m Dsus2Dsus2
Tell them I'll call them right back
E MajorE F# minorF#m Dsus2Dsus2
Yeah I'll be coming right back
