Capo at the 3rd fret. All the chords are basic ones, so no need for a chart - sometimes though, they add the high G on the E string to the C chord --> x32013 instead of x32010. Also, the C/G is 3x2013. Intro C C G D G Shall we agree that just this once Em D I'm gonna change my life C G D G Em F Until its just as tiny or important as you like C G D C And in time, we won't even recall that we spoke G D C Words that turned out to as big as smoke Em D G Like smoke disappears in the air C Em D G There's always something smoldering somewhere *chorus* D C G I know it don't make a difference to you D C G But Oh it sure made a difference to me Em D C G You'll see me off in the distance I hope Am At the other end C D C/G At the other end of the telescope *same as first verse except leave out F - stay on Em in the second line* There was a time not long ago I dreamt the world was flat All the colors bled away and that was that And in time, I could only believe in one thing The sky was just phorphorus stars hung on a string And you swore that they'd always be mine When you can pull them down anytime *same as other chorus* I know it don't make a difference to you But Oh it sure made a difference to me You'll see me off in the distance I hope At the other end At the other end of the telescope *bridge* D C G There there baby now don't say a word D C G Lie down baby your vision is blurred Em D C G your head is sore from all of that thinking Em I don't want to hurt you now Am C But I think you're sinking Am (I think you're sinking) *same as first verse except where noted* Your half-naked ambition and your half out of your mind And though your wristwatch always works Your necktie never fits Now its so hard to pick the reciever up and when I call I never noticed you could be so small The answer was under your nose C D G But the question never arose D C G I know it don't make a difference to you D C G But Oh it sure made a difference to me Em D C G When you find me here at the end of my rope Em D C G When the head and heart of it finally elope Em D C G Em D You can see us off in the distance I hope Am At the other end C D C/G C G At the other end of the telescope
