Intro: E A B E A Sun comes up, it's Tuesday morning B Hits me straight in the eye A E Guess you forgot to close the blind last night A B A Oh that's right, I forgot, it was me A E I sure do miss the smell of black coffee in the morning, A E The sound of water splashing all over the bathroom, A E The kiss that you would give me even though I was sleeping, B A E But I kind of like the feel of this extra few feet in my bed E A Telephone's ringing, but I don't answer it B A E 'Cause everybody knows that good news always sleeps till noon A Guess it's tea and toast for breakfast again B A Maybe I'll add a little T.V. too E No milk! God, how I hate that A E Guess I'll go to the corner, get breakfast from Jenny A E She's got a black eye this morning, "Jen how'd ya get it?" B A E She says, "Last night, Bobby got a little bit out of hand" A Lunchtime, I start to dial your number B A Then I remember so I reach for somebodies smoke E A And anyways I'd rather listen to Coltrane B A Than go through all that xxxx again E There's something about an afternoon spent doing nothin A E Just listening to records and watching the sun falling A E Thinking of things that don't have to add up to something B And this spell won't be broken A E By the sound of keys scraping in the lock E A Maybe tonight it's a movie With plenty of room B for elbows and knees A E a bag of popcorn all to myself, E A Black and white with a strong female lead B A And if I don't like it, no debate, I'll leave A E Here comes that feeling that I'd forgotten A How strange these streets feel E when you're alone on them A E Each pair of eyes just filled with suggestion B A So I lower my head, make a b-line for home E Seething inside A Funny, I'd never noticed B A E The sound the streetcars make as they pass my window A B A Which reminds me that I forgot to close the blind again E Yeah, sure I'll admit there are times when I miss you A E Especially like now when I need someone to hold me A E But there are some things that can never be forgiven B And I just gotta tell ya A E That I kinda like this extra few feet in my bed Solo: A B A E A B A A E A E A E B A E

C
And every single time you make your way into my sheets,
Dsus4 D

is another way to play it…tho a little bit harder
What’s the little bit at the end of ‘you still/slept with my best friend’? There’s a sort-of string-dampened bit…?
Any one who is wondering about the chord after “you still slept with my best friend” the G chord three times and then you bar the 12th fret and strum
I love this song! So happy I finally found it!!
that last note in the song is hold all the strings on the 12th fret
Guys guys. You don’t hold down on the fret. It’s actually a harmonic and they have a section on the ukuguides page that goes into great detail on how to play it. 🙂
I think that +5 is much easier and fun to play.
really easy and fun to play, I learned this in around 15 minutes 🙂
