Symptom Of My Time
(Jim Marr/ Amy Powers)
The danish singer Marie Frank made her own fantastic interpretation of Marrs and
Powers "Symptom of my life":
C F Am
I'm just a symptom of my time, just a victim of my mind
G
Turning deaf and dumb and Blind 'cause I need to
C F Am
I'm inescapably obsessed with the thoughts I have repressed
G
How I look when I'm undressed to receive you
F G
Why do you think your love could ever change me ?
F G
Why ? you don't know anything about me baby
C F Am
Should I wax or should I shave, be a master or a slave
G
Would a good girl misbehave like I plan to
C F Am
Do I smile or do I pout, turn the collar in or out
G
It's the little things that count, baby can't you see that
F G
I just can't take it anymore
F G
I need to find some kind of light behind the door
C G
And it gets me down, yes it gets me down
A# F
Everybody's got it right but me somehow
C G
And it gets me down, spins my head around
A# F
Life really should be easier by now
C F Am
I read another magazine, see the star I've never been
G
Hope is something in between all the pages
C F Am
I buy a promise in a jar, I try to cover up the scar
G
There's no shelter from the storm when it rages
F G
I've tried so long and hard and nothing changes
F G
God must be laughing as he turns away
C G
And it gets me down, yes it gets me down
A# F
Everybody's got it right but me somehow
C G
And it gets me down, spins my head around
A# F
Life really should be easier for me by now
C G
And it gets me down, spins my head around
A# F
Life really should be easier by now
F G
I just can't take it anymore
F G
I need to find some kind of light behind the door
C F
I'm just a symptom of my time
C F
I'm just a symptom of my time
C F
I'm just a symptom of my time...
Enjoy...
