Capo 4 sounds right to me with these chords. There are other versions that dont use capos
but I like this better and when i saw them live they used capo for this song.
Standard Tuning
CAPO 4
[Intro]
C G Am F X4
[Verse 1]
C
And the moment will come when composure returns
G
Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall
Am
And you walk twenty yards with your head in the air
F
Down the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade
C
Look with curious eyes on your raggedy way
G
And for once in your life you've got nothing to say
Am
And could this be the time when somebody will come
F
To say, "Look at yourself, you're not much use to anyone"
[Interlude]
C G Am F
[Verse 2]
C
Take a walk in the park, take a valium pill
G
Read the letter you got from the memory girl
Am
But it takes more than this to make sense of the day
F
Yeah, it takes more than milk to get rid of the taste
C
And you trusted to this, and you trusted to that
G
And when you saw it all come, it was waving the flag
Am
Of the United States of Calamity, hey!
F
After all that you've done, boy, I know you're going to pay
[Interlude]
C G Am F x2
[Verse 3]
C
In the morning you come to the ladies salon
G
To get all fitted out for The Paperback Throne
Am
But the people are living far away from the place
F
Where you wanted to help, it's a bit of a waste
C
And the puzzle will last until somebody will say
G
"There's a lot to be done while your head is still young"
Am
If you put down your pen, leave your worries behind
F
Then the moment will come, and the memory will shine
[Intrumental]
C G Am F X4
N.C.
Now the trouble is over, everybody got paid
Everybody is happy, they are glad that they came
Then you go to the place where you've finally found
C
You can look at yourself, sleep the clock around
[Outro]
C G Am F
sleep the clock around
C G Am F
sleep the clock around
C G Am F
sleep the clock around
C G Am F
C G Am F
C G Am F
