Tom: G
 

VERSE 1
              G              D5          G     G9
There's a guy singing in the edge of the room
       Em79                      C7M
Making sounds through a face like a prune.
              Em79                     A69
He's got them fancy checkered pants and a chip in his tooth.
   Cm(#6)
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
     G               D5        G        G9
Suffocating from patchouli and smoke.
           Em79                  C7M
Here's the fifty-first song that he wrote
          Em79              A69
About the girl who split fifty weeks ago
       Cm(#6)
Oh no, yeah, yeah, yeah.
              C5                             G
And there's a weight heavy down there on his shoulder.

CHORUS
    Eb9                 C
The patented moves growing colder,
    Eb9                           C           C?
The seventh chord just keeps getting older.

VERSE 2
G  D5 G  G9   Em79              C7M
Oh my soul, just hit me if I get on a roll,
             Em79                A69
But this all sounded so good in the bedroom cold
   Cm(#6)
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
        G      D5     G     G9
But its only a 2 AM   tune
       Em79                         C7M
With a bridge that was lifted from "My Aim Is True"
         Em79              A69
From the setlist drink to the practice room
   Cm(#6)
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
              C5                             G
But there's a weight heavy down there on his shoulder.

CHORUS
    Eb9                 C
The patented moves growing colder,
    Eb9                           C       C?
The seventh chord just keeps getting older.

LINK
       B                          C(2)
And he knows just as sure as this microphone stinks
          A                                  D5
There's a change coming through and he ain't going home alone tonight.
G D5 / G G9

CODA
G                                        Em9
Oh, we're going down, but don't it sound sweet
                                 C
Feel the dust building up at our feet
    Cm                               G
