[Verse 1]
A C
I am not what I once used to be, I was once what I am but now I'm not
A C
and even though you'll find some spirit in this tune you will never understand my point of view
D E D F
and it feels such a cool sensation living life alive as God's creation
E
you don't know me, you can't see my face when you look in the mirror
G
someone else is always looking back at you
E
you try to grow up but you know you're gonna to be a faliure
E D A
so you stay young and hide your head deep within this tune on a Sunday afternoon
[Verse 2]
A
I got something and I feel it in my head
C
I write the songs and make them rhyme and play them once again
C A
but do you notice or even care a bit for what I say
D E
for you simply entertainment flowing from my brain
A C A
your head, my hand, your touch my love
A C
I see your face on the cover of a record
I know you feel that you have to play along
E D A
as Im writing down the lyrics to this tune on Sunday afternoon
[Middle 8]
E
and in this world of truth, you have to sit down and write yourself a tune
G
or you'll be forgotten in the future which will be here before to soon
[Verse 3]
A
if you feel that you're alive then you'd better join the race
C
if you ever see me cry then you'd better dry my face
A
if you think that I am good then you'd better tell me soon
E D A
for it my be that it all came into bloom on this Sunday afternoon.
