Intro : F5 F5 F5 Bb5 F5 F5 F5 Bb5 C5 C5 C5 C5

F5               C5               F5          Bb5        C5
What is it that makes me just a little bit queasy
F5                        C5                  F5       Bb5        C5
There's a breeze that makes my breathing not so easy
Ab5                  Db5                     Eb5
I've had my lungs checked out with X rays
Ab5                  Db5           Eb5             F5    Db5
I've smelled the hospital hallways

[Chorus]


        F5       Bb5
       Someday I'll have
    F5                      C5
       a disappearing hair line
       F5       Bb5
       Someday I'll wear
    F5                     C5
       pajamas in the day time
   
Times when the day is like a play by Sartre

When it seems a book burning's in perfect order   

I gave the doctor my description

I've tried to stick to my presciptions

[chorus]

Maybe if I could do a play by playback

I could change the test results that I will get back 

I've watched the summer evenings pass by

I've heard the rattle in my bronchi

[chorus]


 Bb5         F5 
    Oh .... oh .... oh
    C5     F5
    After noons will be
    Bb5            D5
    measured out, measured out, and
    Bb5
    measured with
 C5        F5                Bb5
        coffe spoons, and T.S. Eliot
