Make the Grade

Verse 1:
G                 Em
Somewhere at the bottom of the ocean
        C                D
I am floating past the algae,
Gm          G      Gb
The whale bones, so pretty,
D
But my body
D                      G
Still didn't make the grade,
D                      G
Still didn't make the grade.

Verse 2:
G                                Em
Somewhere in the basement I once had
         C               D
a good idea but I can't find it.
G                    Bb
My mind is drawing blanks
Bb            D
To fill the page,
D                            G
But I still won't make the grade,
C                      G
Still won't make the grade.

Chorus 1:
A      C       Em    D
I'm regaining patience
F               Em     B7 G
In the better half of man,
A                 C      B
And the stories we'll remember
G
Are from a different hand.

Interlude: Em E

Verse 3:
G                               Em
Somewhere at the bottom of my brain
                C              D
I just don't care and I don't want to.
G            Bb
But I do, anyway...
Bb      D
Anyway, I
D                      G
Still won't make the grade,
D                      G
Still won't make the grade.

Chorus 2:
A      C       Em    D
I'm regaining patience
F               Em     B7 G
In the better half of man,
A                 C      B
And the stories we'll remember
G
Are from a different hand.

Verse 4:
G                 Em
Somewhere at the bottom of the ocean
        C                D
I am floating past the algae,
Gm          G      Gb
The whale bones, so pretty,
D
But my body
D                      G
Still won't make the grade...
D                      G
Still won't make the grade...
D                      G
Still won't make the grade...
