G5 C5
all i ever asked of you
F5 Bb5
a copy of garage days and to tell me the truth
Eb5 D5
ain't no one watching you exit ventura highway
G5 G5

G5 C5
it's like i knew two of you man
F5 Bb5
the one before and after we shook hands
Eb5 D5
taking the calls but in all forgetting what's been
said
G5 G5

G5 C5
and after dark in a cab in l.a.
F5 Bb5
forget about the meter man these are salad days
Eb5 D5 G5
comes on the radio comes on and what's being said

F5 Bb5 C5 D5 Eb5
is you're no better than sylvia, no better than...
Bb5 C5 D5 Eb5
no better than sylvia
G5 C5 F5 Bb5
where you are and where you've been and where you've
gone
Eb5 D5 G5
Oh 

G5 C5
here's a mark he's a mark on the page
F5 Bb5
dishing out the wisdom of this reflexive age
Eb5 D5
dotting the eyes with an eye for defining what you
were
G5 G5

G5 C5
so when you do that line tonight
F5 Bb5
remember that it came at a steep price
Eb5 D5
and keep telling yourself there's more to you than her

F5 Bb5 C5 D5 Eb5
but you're no better than sylvia, no better than...
Bb5 C5 D5 Eb5
no better than sylvia
G5 C5 F5 Bb5
where you gone where you been and where you gone
Eb5 D5 G5 G5
oh no.

G5
(vibes and whoosh sounds)


- the chorus is a little funky with all the overlaps,
but the chords are right...
