(capo on third fret) 
  
 Intro:  D5       G5  D5       G5  A5      A5 
  
 D5               A5               D5          G5              G5 A5 
 What is it that makes me just a little bit queasy 
 D5                     A5                  D5      G5         G5 A5 
 There's a breeze that makes my breathing not so easy 
 F5           Bb5                     C5 
 I've had my lungs checked out with X-rays 
 F5                Bb5       C5                 D5        Bb5   
 I've smelled the hospital hallways 
  
 (  Sorry. Not really sure if this is what you call this chord. Basically  
 play a Bb5 , but play the C5 note on the second string, not the D5 note ) 
 SHORT Chorus: 
 D5       G5         D5                 A5 
 Someday I'll have    a disappearing hairline 
 D5       G5         D5                 A5             G5      A5 
 Someday I'll wear    pajamas in the daytime 
  
  
 D5              A5                D5       G5             G5  A5 
 Times when the day seems like a play by Sartre 
 D5               A5                D5       G5            G5  A5 
 When it seems a book burnings in perfect order 
 F5          Bb5          C5 
 I gave the doctor my description 
 F5             Bb5             C5                D5      Bb5 
 I've tried to stick to my prescription 
  
 LONG Chorus: 
 D5       G5          D5                 A5 
 Someday I'll have     a disappearing hairline 
 D5       G5          D5                 A5 
 Someday I'll wear     pajamas in the daytime 
 G5       D5 
 Oh, oh, oh, oh              (or something to that effect) 
 A5    D5             G5 
 Afternoons will be measured out 
 B5               G5 
 Measured out and measured with 
 A5     D5               G5                 G5  A5 
 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
