Bm A E A Bm A E Althea told me upon scrutiny that my back might need protection. A C#m D A I told Althea that treachery was tearing me limb from limb. C#m E Bm A E Althea told me better cool down boy, settle back, easy Jim. [Solo] Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A - E - Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A – E [Verse] Bm A E A Bm A E You may be Saturday's child, all grown, Moving with a pinch of grace. Bm A E A Bm A E You may be a clown in the burying ground, Or just another pretty face. A C#m D A You may meet the fate of Ophelia to sleep and then perchance to dream. C#m E Bm A E Honest to the point of recklessness, self-centered in the extreme. [Solo] Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A - E - Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A – E [Verse] Bm A E A. Bm A E Ain't nobody messing with you, but you, Your friends are getting most concerned. Bm A E A Bm A E Loose with the truth baby it's your fire but baby I hope you don't get burned. A C#m D A When the smoke has cleared, she said, that's what she said to me. C#m E Bm A E Gonna want a bed to lay your head and a little sympathy. [Solo] Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A - E - Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A – E [Bridge] D G E There are things you can replace, and others you cannot. D G The time has come to weigh those things. E Bm A E This space is getting hot, you know this space is getting hot. [Solo] Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A - E - Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A – E [Verse] Bm A E A Bm A E I told Althea I'm a rogue inside, and I was born to be a bachelor. Bm A E Bm A E Althea told me, okay, that's fine so now I'm trying to catch her. A C#m D A Can't talk to you without talking to me, We're guilty of the same old thing. C#m E Bm A E Thinking a lot about less and less, And forgetting the love we bring.
