Intro (and pretty much the whole song):
| F | Am | F | C | F - G | Am - C | F | G |


             F                               Am
She says the joys of life are lost among the living
           F                               C
So I guess all those souvenirs are for her health
             F                G
She gives me quarters for the phone
          Am          C          F
And every time I feel alone I go broke
          G
Yeah I go broke

             F                                      Am
She says if you're not here at least make sure you miss me
           F                              C
So when I miss her I make sure to let her know
         F                  G
It's the least that I could do
           Am               C
And sure I guess I like it too
            F                 G
I'm Mr. Charming without the charming

       F                                   Am
I can hear the eyebrows raise when I start singing
            F                          C
'Cause the songs I sing are all about myself
        F              G
You can read me like a book
           Am           C
I'm not as clever as I look

            F             
I've got a sneaky kind of selfish
        G             
That I keep upon the shelf
             F
With jars of double-sided comments
        G                
For people who've done nothing wrong

     F             
Preparing for the lights
             G
And always practicing my sha-na-nas
        F                       
I will stand right next to giants
      G
And roar aside the lions

           F              
Wondering how is it so easy
    G 
For leaves amid the breeze to blow
       F                 
From hometowns all around us
       G
To hometowns where nobody lives

      F             
Just cities full of people
G             
People making people 
       F             
Making people for the masses
 G
People we won't ever know

{Intro X1}

             F                                 Am
She says the point of this is not to date the future
        F                    C
So just focus on the task at hand
       F                  G
Try to break up with your pride
             Am               C
And start to flirt with satisfied
