 Evaporated                                      Ben Folds Five
as translated by skip allums, 1997.

F     Am    Bb     C
F     Am    Bb     C

F                    Am     Bb                C
 what i've kept with me and what i've thrown away
     F                   Am               Bb               C
 now where the hell i've ended up on this glary random day
           Dm              C                Bb              Am
 where the things i really cared about just left along the way
      C
 from being to pent up and proud


 woke up way to late feelin hungover and old
 and the sun was shining bright as i walked barefoot down the road
 started thinkin bout my old man it seeems that all men
 wanna get into their car and go

 Am    Bb
 any-  where

        Bb  C          Dm     Am
 here i stand sad and free
         Bb C        Dm     Am
 i can't cry i can't see
           Bb   C
 what i've done
   Dm      Am       Bb
 oh god what have i done?


F    Am   Bb   C
F    Am   Bb   C

 2nd verse

 chorus

 bridge-thingy


          F    Am    Bb
  ....and evaporated          see?

  3rd verse (quiet)

  blind man on a canyon's edge of a panoramic scene
  or maybe i'm a kite just flyin high in random dangling a string
  or slumped over in a vacant room, head on stranger's knee
  i'm sure back home they think i've lost my mind

  chorus


i didn't put the chords to the bridge-thingy cuz i'm not sure what they
are. i always just play the verse chords, but thats not really right. get
back to me if you figger them out.
