*** verse 1: | |
C2 g d g | |
Shall we agree that just this once | |
Em d | |
I'm gonna change my life | |
C2 g d g | |
Until it's just as tiny or | |
Em f | |
Important as you like | |
C2 g d c2 | |
And in time, we won't even recall that we spoke | |
G d c2 | |
Words that turned out to be as big as smoke | |
Em d g | |
Like smoke, disappears in the air | |
C2 em d g | |
There's always something smouldering somewhere | |
*** chorus: | |
D c2 g | |
I know it don't make a difference to you | |
D c2 g | |
But oh, it sure made a difference to me | |
Em d c2 g | |
You'll see me off in the distance, i hope | |
Am | |
At the other end | |
C d c2 | |
At the other end of the telescope | |
*** verse 2: | |
There was a time not long ago c2 g d g | |
I dreamt that the world was flat em d | |
And all the colours bled away c2 g d g | |
And that was that em em (note!) | |
And in time, i could only believe in one thing c2 g d c2 | |
The sky was just phosphourus stars hung on strings g d c2 | |
And you swore that they'd always be mine em d g | |
When you can pull them down anytime em d g | |
*** chorus: | |
I know it don't make a difference to you d c2 g | |
But oh, it sure made a difference to me d c2 g | |
You'll see me off in the distance, i hope em d c2 | |
At the other end am | |
At the other end of the telescope c d c2 | |
*** bridge: | |
D c2 g | |
There, there baby now, don't say a word | |
D c2 g | |
Lie down baby, your vision is blurred | |
Em d c2 | |
Your head is so sore from all of that thinking | |
Em | |
I don't want to hurt you now | |
C am c am | |
But i think you're shrinking (i think you're skrinking) | |
*** verse 3: | |
You're half-naked ambition and c2 g d g | |
You're half out of your wits em d | |
And though your wristwatch always works c2 g d g | |
Your necktie never fits em f | |
Now its so hard to pick the receiver up c2 g d | |
And when i call, i never noticed you could be so small c2 g d | |
The answer was under your nose em d g | |
But the question never arose em d g | |
*** coda: | |
I know it don't make a difference to you d c2 g | |
But oh, it sure made a difference to me d c2 g | |
When you find me here at the end of my rope em d c2 | |
When the head and heart of it finally elope em d c2 | |
You can see us off in the distance, i hope em d c2 | |
At the other end am | |
At the other end of the telescope c d c2 | |
