Saturday As Usual
by Bright Eyes
Album : A Collection Of Songs: Recorded 1959-1997
note: it's either Am or Am7
C
Virginia's almost sleeping
G
The night is getting older
Dm
There's static on the tv
Dm7 C
She's lying on the sofa
G Dm
The cats crawl over her
C
Jenny's in the garage
G
She's got the car in neutral
Dm
She rolls it out so quietly
Dm7 C
It's Saturday as usual
G Dm
It always is
C
And me I'm in my bedroom
G
Drawing in my notebook
Dm
Cause my hand thinks I'm an artist
Dm7 C
But my heart knows I'm a poet
G Dm7
It's just words, they mean...
C Am7/B
So little to me, so little to me
Dm G
So little to me, so little to me
C Am7/B
So little to me, so little to me
Dm
So little to me
G
I can't seem to deal with something more
When everyone will fall back
C
Daddy's in the backyard
G
his hands are getting dirty
Dm
And mom is in the kitchen
Dm7 C
And her cake says that I'm thirteen
G Dm
Another year
C
My brother went to college
G
To become a doctor
Dm
And if he studies hard enough
Dm7 C
he'll end up just like father
G Dm
Who hates his life
C
And me, I'm in the bathroom
G
crying out my eyelids
Dm
Cause it's hard to be a man
Dm7 C
when you're scared just like a little kid
G Dm
The world's become...
C Am7/B
A little too mean, a little too mean
Dm G
A little too mean, a little too mean
C Am7/B
A little too mean, a little too mean
Dm
A little too mean,
G
And I can't see the point of patient love
C
When everyone just wants to get fucked
