Piano Lessons
Intro: C#m7 E B F#
Verse (C#m7 E B F#)
C#m7 E
I remember piano lessons
B F#
The hours in freezing rooms
C#m7 E
Cruel ears and tiny hands
B F#
Destroying timeless tunes
C#m7 E
She said there's too much out there
B F#
Too much already said
C#m7 E
You'd better give up hoping
B F#
You're better off in bed
Chorus (A F Em D)
C#m7 E
(Take your hands off my land)
A F Em
Credit me with some intelligence
D
(if not just credit me)
A F Em
I come in value packs of ten
D
(in five varieties)
Verse (C#m7 E B F#)
You don't need much to speak of No class, no wit, no soul
Forget you own agenda Get ready to be sold
I feel now like Christine Keeler Sleepwaking in the rain
I didn't mean to lose direction I didn't want that kind of fame
Chorus
Verse (C#m7 E B F#)
And even though I got it all now My only stupid dream
I see you and me together And how it should have been
I remember piano lessons Now everything seems clear
You waiting under streetlights For dreams to disappear

Bbadd2/9
No narcotics in my brain - Can make this go away

Leave me dreaming on a railway track - Wrap me up and send me back

For the guitar parts in between
the main riff and the rock out
section, I'm sure there are
actual chords being played, but I just
switch on a Wah sound with a lot of delay
and scrape against the strings.

It could be a joke, it could be a statement

The more that I fake it and pretend I don't care
Am Em Fmaj7 Fm
The more you can read in to what isn't there
Chorus:
Am Em Fmaj7
Maybe it's time to stop swimming
Am Em Fmaj7
Maybe it's time to find out where I'm at

What I should do and where I should be
