[verse]
A             E                 F#m                   
if you get out before September
C#m            D              A
remember that I'm still inside 
B              E
but I'm dry I'm dry 
A             E                  F#m
and you when you try to make a difference 
C#m                     D        A
you're so different and then I try 
B             E
and just die I die
A                E
she knows that I need 
              F#m
you more than I want ya 
C#m                   D
but I want ya for all time 
A               
so I'm I guess on the line.

 [chorus] 
D                        A                                    
its all that I can do to sing-these stupid songs to you 
D                            A                         
I give up half  my time just trying-to think up words that rhyme 
D                          A                F#m
I aint getting any younger but you wouldn't know 
G                     E
so its on with the show 

 [verse]

A            E                 F#m 
Some times a smoke a drink and a ponder 
            C#m                D  
can work wonders when you're down 
            A             B     E
takes your frown turns it round around 
A             E                  F#m
and you when you try to make a difference 
C#m                     D        A
you're no different than when I try
B              E
and just die I die  
A                     E         F#m
and now that your day dream is forgotten
C#m                       D        
and forgiven and the world 
A    
has been saved be brave 

 [chorus] 

D                        A                                     
its all that I can do to sing these stupid songs to you 
D                      A                         
I give up half my time just trying to think up words that rhyme 
D                          A                F#m
I aint getting any younger but you wouldn't know 
G              F#m
cos i wooo...on't live in your shadow
G               F#m
and i never ever ever really showed my face
G            
but i'm only ever see in the right place
