Obscurity Knocks
INTRO: A
ABm Always at the foot of the photograph - that's me there A Snug as a thug in a mugshot pose Bm Owner of this corner and not much more ADE Still these days I'm better placed to get my just rewards A I'll pound out a tune and very soon DE I'll have too much to say and a dead stupid name
CHORUS AE Though I ought to be learning I feel like a veteran AE Of "Oh I like your poetry but I hate your poems" AE Calendars crumble I'm knee deep in numbers AEA Turned 21, I've twist, I'm bust and wrong again
Rubbing shoulders with the sheets till two Looking at my watch and I'm half-past caring In the lap of luxury it comes to mind Is this headboard hard? Am I a lap behind? But to face doom in a sock-stenched room all by myself Is the kind of fate I never contemplate Lots of people would cry though none spring to mind
D Know what it's like To sigh at the sight of the first quarter of life? BmD Every stopped to think and found out nothing was there?
EA They laugh to see such fun BmD Playing Blind Man's Bluff all by myself A And they're chanting a line from a nursery rhyme ED "Ba Ba Bleary Eyes - Have you any idea?"
AEAE The calendar's cluttered with days that are numbered
