E E7
[Verse]
A
In the approach of midlife
F#m D A
I received a letter from an eloquent friend
A
Saying he was touched by my progress
F#m D A
A kind of poem to the words that I’d penned
A F#m D
My ego under attack I felt myself shrinking back
A
From his embrace into a place that I know
A F#m D
Felt relief in resentment couldn’t see what it meant
A
The jealous echo of a hurt long ago
[Bridge]
Ddim* ( D )
I’m so vain
E* A*
Thought this song was about me
Ddim* ( D )
Now it’s gone down the drain
E* A*
Turning against me
G
Calling me names
F#m E (silent)
And me, well I
[Chorus]
E7sus4 E7 A
I’m still screwing around with a portastudio
E A/E
You’re in the rain, arguing with your girl-
Faug D/F#
friend it’s the same
E A
Rules and restraints
F#m D
I strum and I scrawl
E A/E Faug D/F#
Watching the paint stay wet on the walls
E A
The mercury falls
F#m Bm
And everything’s changed
E A
Nothing has changed
F#m Bm
Nothing has changed
E A
Everything's changed
[Verse]
A
I’m turning over a new page
F#m D A
I’m taking stock of all the gifts I can see
A
I’m sorry if I have hurt you
F#m D A
It’s been so hard to find the freedom in me
A F#m D
I’m dedicating this song to someone I know who's gone
A
Cut all my records with a steadying hand
A F#m D
I’m talkin' 'bout Mr Blair up in his room in his chair
A
Working some magic I still can’t understand
[Bridge]
Ddim* ( D )
Is that all gone
E* A*
No autumn light through the window
Ddim* ( D )
No, man the cut's still on
E* A*
Between the tracks, hear the wind blow
G
Two seconds of time
F#m E
And in we fade
[Chorus]
E7sus4 E7 A
I’m still screwing around with a portastudio
E A/E
You’re in the rain, arguing with your girl-
Faug D/F#
friend it's the same
E A
Rules and restraints
F#m D
I strum and I scrawl
E A/E Faug D/F#
Watching the paint stay wet on the walls
E A
The mercury falls
F#m Bm
And everything’s changed
E A
Nothing has changed
F#m Bm
Nothing has changed
E A
Everything's changed
