Elvis Costello - Back On My Feet chords

A

 A
How many days will the wet weather last?
A                         G
I want to know will the clouds
                E
When they roll back 
          A             F#m
Reveal a man in an old mac
             Bsus4    B
Living on a park bench
               Esus4   E
Sitting on his own? 

 A
Cut to the rain as it runs down the glass
                        G                 E
Eventually through the lightning and thunder 
          A           F#m
We see a man going under 
                Bsus4  B
This is how it happens 
                 Esus4  E
This is what he said  

E             A
I don't need love
            E          A
Though temptation is sweet 
 E            F#m
Give me your hand
          D          A
'Til I'm back on my feet 
 E             A         E         A
You're always telling me about my misery
      E                  F#m
I've seen things you'll never see
 D         A
Don't pity me 
 
 A
Focus in on the breath of a man
 A                       G
Who takes a brown paper bag
              E
From his knapsack 
              A                 F#m
Between his whispers and wise cracks  
                     Bsus4  B
He's looking for permission
                 Esus4  E
Screaming at the sky

E             A
I don't need love
            E          A
Though temptation is sweet 
 E            F#m
Give me your hand
          D          A
'Til I'm back on my feet 
 E             A         E         A
You're always telling me about my misery
      E                  F#m
I've seen things you'll never see
 D         A
Don't pity me 

C
 I'll be right again 
                    A
Be upright without you 
C
 I'll stand up again 
                      A
Kick up a fuss again too 

 A
Cut back again to a girl walking by 
                        G                 E
Until the feet that are all shoes and no socks 
            A            F#m
Climb an invisible soap box 
                       Bsus4  B
Laughing at the traffic 
                 Esus4  E
Shouting at the world 

E             A
I don't need love
            E          A
Though temptation is sweet 
 E            F#m
Give me your hand
          D          A
'Til I'm back on my feet 
 E             A         E         A
You're always telling me about my misery
      E                  F#m
I've seen things you'll never see
 D         A
Don't pity me 

C
 I'll stand up again 
                      A
Kick up a fuss again too 
C
 I'll be right again 
                    A
Be upright without you 

A
We see a life through the eyes of a man 
As he live and he dies 
By a simple tattoo 
C       
 I'll be back again 
                   A
When I land on my feet 
C
 I'll stand up again 
                                A
Kick up a fuss again, wouldn't you 

A
Well there you go, though we tried hard to know him 
It's there on his face 
He's a case where there's clearly no hope
C
 Give me your hand again 
                 
'Til I land again 
A
His face starts to fade 
As we pull down the shade 
And the picture we made 
Is in glorious cinemascope 

C                  A
 I'll be back...
