Biography:
Bettie Serveert is a Dutch indie-rock band, founded in 1991 in Arnhem, The Netherlands. Their name, which translates to "Bettie serves," is taken from a series of tennis instructional books by Dutch tennis player Betty Stove, who lost the Wimbledon Ladies singles final in 1977.
Comprising vocalist Carol Van Dyk (vocals), Peter Visser (guitar), Herman Bunskoeke (bass) and Berend Dubbe (drums) they originally formed in 1986 as a side-project of De Artsen.

Bm A D Dsus4 D
Boredom always lurks within strange places
Bm G D Dsus4 D
Still I find a way to feed my mind
Bm A D Dsus4 D
The worlds collide between those faces
Bm G D Dsus4 D
And never share of what goes on inside
A Bm E A
If I apologise for every crutch I uses
Bm D E G
I gues I never would have walked inside those shoes
Bm A D Dsus4 D
Behold the world that I've been shapin'
Bm G D Dsus4 D
I never said that I belong
Bm A D Dsus4 D
in other words have I been flakin'
Bm G D Dsus4 D
without you knowing what I've done
A Bm E A
If I apologise for every crutch I uses
Bm D E G -let ring-
I gues I never would have walked inside those shoes
Bm A
So let me down down down let it bubble all around me
G D
always something after.....................
Bm
So let me down down down
A
let the showerness surround you
G G* G G* G G* G -stop- G G* G G* G G* G -stop-
Let it drown you
>From the ..... in my eyes I can see the world
spinning ...........................
never satisfied
And though it's plain to see
......................set for me
Don't believe every word that they say
So let me down...........
A part of my mind will never understand
Why it's close at hand
It's never out of sight
and though it's part of me, they're never going to see
don't believe every word that they say
don't believe every word that they say
