Not Exactly

D  G  Em A   D  G  Em  A

[Verse 1]

D           G                    
I am sad alright,  but what a 
       Em    A
waste of time
D           G                  
I held you much too close and 
Em                    A
now there's something missing
 D           G              Em  A
But I can't see the empty space, 
  D         G               Em  A
 something else has taken place

[Verse 2]

D           G                    
I am sad alright,  but what a 
       Em    A
waste of tears
D           G                  
I held you much too close and 
Em                  A
now there's someone missing
 D      G               Em  A  
She is gone without a trace,  
D           G              Em   
just the expression on her face, 
A
what a waste

[Pre Chorus]

  D                        G  
There's a flame there’s a fire, 
                  Em            A
there’s a body burning up

 D                G             
And a bird on a shape made of 
Em             A
steel ohoh,  he keeps on singing

[Chorus]

 D         G                Em   
It's not exactly what you think, 
      A               D
not exactly what you see
           G                
It’s not exactly what you've 
  Em                      A  
learned,  and what you will be 
          D
learning
           G                Em    
No - not exactly what you think,  
           A               D
no - not exactly what you see
            G               
It’s not exactly what you've 
  Em                     A   
learned,  and what you will be 
        D
learning

[Verse 3]

D           G                    
I am sad alright,  but what a 
        Em   A
waste of breath
D         G            Em 
I'm only talking to relieve,  
                     A
although there's no one listening
D      G               Em   A  
He is gone without a trace,   
D           G              Em   A
just the expression on his face

[Pre Chorus]

 D                         G  
There's a flame there’s a fire, 
                  Em           A
there’s a body burning up
 D                G             
And a bird on a shape made of 
Em                  A
steel ohoh,  ohoh he keeps on 
singing
 D       G       Em       A      
No not exactly,  no not exactly, 
 D        G       Em       A
 no not exactly,  no not exactly

[Chorus]

 D         G                Em   
It's not exactly what you think, 
      A               D
not exactly what you see
            G               
It’s not exactly what you've 
  Em                     A   
learned,  and what you will be 
        D
learning
         G                Em      
No not exactly what you think,  
    A               D
not exactly what you see
            G               
It’s not exactly what you've 
  Em                     A
learned,  and what you will be 
learning
        D                  G    
I tell you what a waste alright
Em  A   D
