(capo on third fret)
Intro: D5 G5 D5 G5 A5 A5
D5 A5 D5 G5 G5 A5
What is it that makes me just a little bit queasy
D5 A5 D5 G5 G5 A5
There's a breeze that makes my breathing not so easy
F5 Bb5 C5
I've had my lungs checked out with X-rays
F5 Bb5 C5 D5 Bb5
I've smelled the hospital hallways
( Sorry. Not really sure if this is what you call this chord. Basically
play a Bb5 , but play the C5 note on the second string, not the D5 note )
SHORT Chorus:
D5 G5 D5 A5
Someday I'll have a disappearing hairline
D5 G5 D5 A5 G5 A5
Someday I'll wear pajamas in the daytime
D5 A5 D5 G5 G5 A5
Times when the day seems like a play by Sartre
D5 A5 D5 G5 G5 A5
When it seems a book burnings in perfect order
F5 Bb5 C5
I gave the doctor my description
F5 Bb5 C5 D5 Bb5
I've tried to stick to my prescription
LONG Chorus:
D5 G5 D5 A5
Someday I'll have a disappearing hairline
D5 G5 D5 A5
Someday I'll wear pajamas in the daytime
G5 D5
Oh, oh, oh, oh (or something to that effect)
A5 D5 G5
Afternoons will be measured out
B5 G5
Measured out and measured with
A5 D5 G5 G5 A5
Coffeespoons and T.S. Eliot
(The remaining verse and Chorus repeat the same chord progression)
Maybe if I could do a play-by-playback
I could change the test results that I would get back
I've watched a summer evening pass by
I've heard the rattle in my bronchi
REPEAT LONG Chorus
