Ben Folds - Not the Same from “Rockin’ the Suburbs” C major, 4/4 Do is supposed to be D diminished, I couldn't make the stupid circle go up the top where belongs, d'oh! Verse 1:

    C
You took a trip

    G/C
And climbed a tree

Do/C                   C
    At Robert Sledge's party

    C                     G/C
And there you stayed 'til morning came

Do/C                  	  C
    And you were not the same after that

You gave your life To Jesus Christ And after all your friends went home You came down You looked around And you were not the same after that Pre-Chorus:

Am7     Fmaj7
Aaah	Aaah

C                   G
   You were not the same after that

Am7	Fmaj7
Aaah	Aaah

C		     G
   You were not the same after that

Chorus:

             Fmaj7
You see them drop like flies

         G
From the bright sunny skies

          Fmaj7
They come knocking at your door

          G
With this look in their eyes

        Fmaj7
You got one good trick

           G
And you're hangin’ on, you're hangin’ on

C2
	To it...

Verse 2: (same chords as before) You took the word And made it heard And eased the people's pain and for that You were idolized, immortalized You were not the same after that Walking tall You'd bought it all You were not the same after that 'Till someone died On the water slide And you were not the same after that Chorus: (yep, same chords as chorus before) You see them drop like flies From the bright sunny skies They come knocking at your door With this look in their eyes You got one good trick And you're hangin’ on You're hangin’ on To it... Pre-Chorus:

Am7	Fmaj7	C		     G
Ooh ooh ooh  	  (You were not the same)

Am7	Fmaj7	C	G
Ooh ooh ooh

Chorus: You see them drop like flies From the bright sunny skies They come knocking at your door With this look in their eyes You got one good trick And you're hangin’ on You're hangin’ on

	      Fmaj7

Outro: C G/C Do/C C C G/C Do/C C If it's a bit tricky it's probably worth remembering that Ben Folds is a pianist and not guitarist, some of this song is a bit idiosyncratically written for piano. But it's a song so can't complain!!
