*CAPO 3rd FRET*

(Original Key: Bb)


Verse 1:

Em7                   G6
 I keep looking for a place to fit in,
      F9             Bm7/E
Where I can speak my mind.
Em7                       G6
 I've been trying hard to find the people,
     F9               Bm7/E  E7b9
That I won't leave be-hind.

Bridge 1:

     C         C/D
They say I got brains,
         Bm7         Em7   Bm7/E
But they ain't doin' me no good. 
            E7b9
I wish they could.

C6         D6
 Each time things,
         C6       D6
Start to happen a-gain,
  C6
I think I got,
D6              C6           D6
 Something good goin' for my-self,
              D7
But what goes wrong?

Chorus 1:

Am7               D
 Sometimes I feel very sad,
Am7               D
 Sometimes I feel very sad,
(Something put my heart and soul into).
Am7               D
 Sometimes I feel very sad,
(Something put my heart and soul into).

Interlude:

Am7      D6
 I guess I just,
Am7          D         G/A    G  F  E
 Wasn't made for these times.

Verse 2:

Em7                   G6
 Every time I get the inspiration,
   F9                 Bm7/E
To go change things a-round.
Em7                      G6
 No one wants to help me look for places,
      F9                  Bm7/E  E7b9
Where new things might be found.

Bridge 2:

C            C/D
 Where can I turn,
        Bm7          Em7         Bm7/E
When my fair-weather friends cop out?
                E7b9
What's it all a-bout?
