[Intro]
G   G  Bm   Bm
Cm  Cm G* D*  C*

[Verse 1]
           G
Well he's out of season out of sync

but lord what must his family think
        Bm
and you must be getting his feathers
 wet.
         Cm
But she always seems to be the talk

Until she drops you like a rock
    G                   D         
You should’ve been a better friend
    C
 to him.

         G
Well I dusted all the bones were in 
my yard

I fixed the screen door, raised the 
barn
Continúa después del anuncio
     Bm
But still you call me from the moon

Every single afternoon
         Cm
Tell me all about the astronauts you
 come to love

And how the earth looks from above
           G                 D    
And how I should’ve been a better 
           C
friend to you.

[Chorus]
       G                           
But I never seen life as a chore, a
 C                G   B5
 treasure for to find
     Em                       
I’ve read the news, abused the 
               C            D7#9
booze, and often wondered why
   G                               
My smile remains though I'm 
            C              G  B5
thinking pains the average passerby
            Em                 C  
Oh, they’ll sink like stones into 
               D*
their homes away from teeth like 
mine.

[Instrumental]

Whoo-ooh

[Verse 2]
         G
Yeah and so   came to hate my skin 
and all the holes you’re digging in
     Bm
The way you let my legs waltz those 
weeks away
    Cm
by your side
            G               D  
well you should’ve been a better 
              G
friend of mine

       G
Well I saw in you a brand new bird 
the song of which I never heard
     Bm
Oh a melody so fine that whole world
 would pine
           Cm
And it’s a tune to give the boys the
 blues and turn the horses into glue
              G               D   
You know I should’ve been a better
            C
 friend to you
           G                D  
Yeah I should have been a better 
             C
friend to you

[Chorus]
       G                           
Well I never seen life as a chore, 
     C                G   B5
or a treasure for to find
      Em                      
I’ve read the news, abused the 
            C              D7#9
booze, and often wondered why…
G                                 
My smile remains though I'm 
          C        G             B5
thinking pains the average passerby
               Em               C 
Well they’ll sink like stones into
                D*
 their homes away from teeth like 
mine.
