The Bland - Playing Ones
Capo 3
[Intro]
D A D A
D A D A
[Verse 1]
D A D A D A D D
The playing ones they walk alone
Dsus4/C D7sus4/G Dsus4/B Dsus2/F
Searching for their place to be
D A D A
D A D A D A D D
From door to door that’s where they moan
Dsus4/C D7sus4/G Dsus4/B Dsus2/F
But it’s all blue, just like the sea
D A D D
[Chorus]
A A7 Dm
Knocking on a door squeezing out a smile
A A7 Dm
A smile that’ll soon be wearing off
F G Bb A A7
All alone and weary,
Dsus4/C D7sus4/G Dsus4/B Dsus2/F
But they know - they’re where they’re s’posed to be.
D A D A
[Verse 2]
D A D A D A D D
Watch them sing and watch them for free
Dsus4/C D7sus4/G Dsus4/B Dsus2/F
Watch them as they love the stage
D A D A
D A D A D A D D
But when they’re gone then you can leave
Dsus4/C D7sus4/G Dsus4/B Dsus2/F
Leave before you hear them plead
D A D D
[Chorus]
A A7 Dm
’Cause they’re knocking on a door squeezing out a smile
A A7 Dm
A smile that’ll soon be wearing off
F G Bb A A7
All alone and weary,
Dsus4/C D7sus4/G Dsus4/B Dsus2/F
But they know - they’re where they’re s’posed to be.
