A really simple song, again thats the beauty of pop! Where the F is marked
with a *, it means play the fulle barre chord, and hammer your finger on
to the 6th string 1st fret from the open string for the little riff effect
that Pete plays.
G
I am soft from my life and too soft for a wife I know
C B
I'll never have, but that's not so bad.
G
'Cos I won't change a thing, I won't lift a finger more
C B
than I have to, just to get through.
Am Em D Am
I could say a lot about being in a rut
Em D
if I hadn't already forgot.
Am G/B C
Wouldn't you know it?
G C
Some avoid things for weeks out of fear of getting too familiar.
B
"'Cos that's what kills ya".
G
But I'll take dull routine over magazines that tell me
C B
"What to do when you get run thru".
Am Em D Am
If I never move from this spot I'll be safe
Em D
from hurting you and making mistakes.
Am G/B C
So I'm never moving.
G C G C
If I can spot a bad toupee on some poor sucker miles away,
F*
how come I couldn't spot this going wrong,
D
I couldn't stop this coming
G C G C
On and on in TV shows, in books I read and videos,
F*
I don't know how to ever get it back,
D Am G/B C
it's just a long day turning black.
B Em
She must know I'm not sleeping
Am C D
and I can hear her press the handset to her ear,
Em Am C
and close the front door with no tears and put the car into
G C G C F* D
first gear.
G C G C
If I can spot a bad toupee on some poor sucker miles away,
F*
how come I couldn't spot this going wrong,

I couldn't stop this coming
G C G C
On and on in TV shows, in books I read and videos,
