INTRO:C  
 
C       Dadd4              Em  
Keep it tight against your chest 
        C  
This is my time 
            Dadd4         Em  
I d like to see the table turned 
           C  
Trade your placemat with mine 
               Dadd4            Em  
See if you can still make a ball 
         C       Dadd4 C  
Or maybe eat the apple whole 
 
 
        Dadd4            Em  
And the furthest I could reach 
       C  
Was as close as I had come 
    Dadd4      Em  
I m in over my knees 
    C  
And still the only one 
                     Dadd4          Em  
Who has to get get a grip on himself 
        C        Dadd4   C  
I could use some outside help 
 
 
INSTRUMENTAL: G C C G X2 
 
 
D 
It s already stale 
                  C            G 
It s just getting older and my sights 
                 C 
We re sinking so quick 
         G                        C 
That the best I could do was jump ship 
 
 
C       Dadd4          Em  
Waiting with bad bated breath 
        C  
For the winds to change 
            Dadd4         Em  
It s just a well worn-out suggestion 
   C  
To occupy the day 
                Dadd4                Em  
I wished that I knew when I threw it away 
             C         Dadd4        C  
That I could deal with feeling this strange 
 
 
G      C         C      G 
But it sounds so similar 
   C                   C    G 
To something that I ve done before 
     C             C           G 
So I give myself a slap on the wrist 
        C      C           D 
And you jam my hand in the door 
 
 
It raises a smile from you 
         C 
But it s only worth a by-line mention 
  Em                      G 
A simple footnote from an impractical joke 
         C                 G 
Couldn t seem to hold your attention
