Intro: D G D G Asus4 A
D A D G G A
What is it that makes me just a little bit queasy
D A D G G A
There's a breeze that makes my breathing not so easy
F Bb C
I've had my lungs checked out with X-rays
F Bb C Dm Bbsus2**
I've smelled the hospital hallways
(**Sorry. Not really sure if this is what you call this chord. Basically
play a Bb, but play the C note on the second string, not the D note.)
SHORT CHORUS:
D G D A
Someday I'll have a disappearing hairline
D G D A G A
Someday I'll wear pajamas in the daytime
D A D G G A
Times when the day seems like a play by Sartre
D A D G G A
When it seems a book burnings in perfect order
F Bb C
I gave the doctor my description
F Bb C Dm Bbsus2
I've tried to stick to my prescription
LONG CHORUS:
D G D A
Someday I'll have a disappearing hairline
D G D A
Someday I'll wear pajamas in the daytime
G D
Oh, oh, oh, oh (or something to that effect)
A D G
Afternoons will be measured out
Bm G
Measured out and measured with
A D G G A
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
Hope you can follow this.
