*from 'Pet Sounds' (1966)*

(modified from Andrew Roger's original tab)


*CAPO 2nd FRET*

(Original Key: A)


Verse 1:

G
 I had to prove that I could,
Make it alone now,
    D7sus4         D7
But that's not me.
G
 I wanted to show,
How independent I'd grown now,
    D7sus4         D7
But that's not me.

Bridge 1:

	Am
I could try to be big,
       D7
In the eyes of the world.
     Am
What matters to me,
        D7
Is what I could be,
            Bm7   Emaj7  F#m7/E
To just one girl.

Chorus 1:

      Emaj7
I'm a little bit scared,
       F#m7/E
'Cos I haven't been home,
     Emaj7      F#m7/E
In a long time.

    A
You needed my love,
      A7
And I know that I left,
       D           D7
At the wrong time.

Verse 2:

   G
My folks when I wrote them,
Told 'em what I was up to said;
D7sus4         D7
 That's not me.
               G
I went through all kinds of changes,
Took a look at myself and said;
D7sus4         D7
 That's not me.

Bridge 2:

  Am
I miss my pad,
        D7
And the places I've known,
    Am
And every night,
     D7
As I lay there alone;
        Bm7    Emaj7  F#m7/E
I would dream.

Chorus 2:

  Emaj7
I once had a dream,
     F#m7/E
So I packed up and split,
        Emaj7  F#m7/E
For the city.
  Fmaj7
I soon found out,
        Gm
That my lonely life,
          Fmaj7   Gm
Wasn't so pretty.

    Bb
I'm glad I went,
        Bb7
Now I'm that much more sure,
           Eb     Eb7
That we're ready.

Coda:

  Emaj7
I once had a dream,
     F#m7/E
So I packed up and split,
        Emaj7  F#m7/E
For the city.
  Fmaj7
I soon found out,
        Gm
That my lonely life,
          Fmaj7   Gm
Wasn't so pretty.
