	Gm7/C (333363@1)                 Bbadd9 (135211@6)I've been trying hard to find the people
	    Ab9 (x3434x@1)            Dm7/G (000011@1)G7-9 (32310x@1)That I won't leave behind

	They say I got brains
	         Dm7        Gm7    Dm7/G (000011@1)But they ain't doin' me no good
	                  G7-9 (32310x@1)I wish they could

	Cm7       Dm7/C           Cm7     Dm7/C (chords implied by BG vocals)

	I guess I just wasn't made for these times

Verse 2:

	Every time I get the inspiration
	To go change things around
	No one wants to help me look for places
	Where new things might be found
	Where can I turn
	When my fair-weather friends cop out
	What's it all about

	Each time things start to happen again
	I think I got something good goin' for myself and what goes wrong

	(repeat chorus)

* according to Mark Linett (Endless Summer Quarterly, 12/94), the
  layered vocal parts on these lines are:

  (lead vocal):  Sometimes I feel very sad
                 Ain't found the right thing I can put my heart and soul into
                 People I know don't want to be where I'm at
                 O quando per e, un dia per e (022000@1)[Italian?  Portuguese?]
