Carly Simon – Its Not Like Him (Guitar)

Dm                     Am7
When Tom came home his hair was combed

Dm                           C
He bought snakeskin boots in Rome

Dm                  Am7       Dm            Am7
That's not like him

Dm                       Am7
His socks are clean, his shirt is pressed

Dm                        C
It isn't just the way he's dressed

F               C            Bb       Am7
He smiles out of context and acts so polite

Dm                           Am7                Dm            Am7
He's staying at his cousin's overnight

Bb                          C
The protein shakes, that's not like him

Bb                        C
The carrot cakes, that's not like him

Bb                           C
The oat bran flakes, that's not like him

F                     Am7            C     G/B  G     F   Dm
And the sweet name he called me in his sleep last night

Dm
Oh, that's not like him

Dm                 Am7
He whispers on the telephone

Dm                      C
He goes out smelling of cologne

Dm                 Am7             Dm            Am7
That's not like him

Dm                      Am7
It's just a superficial thing

Dm                      C
But he's misplaced his wedding ring

F             C            Bb  Am7
He's become a connoisseur of wine

Dm                     Am7             Dm            Am7
He's quoting Yeats and Gertrude Stein

Bb                    C
The Soho pub, that's not like him

Bb                        C
The racquet club, that's not like him

Bb                           C
Those books on love, that's not like him

F                     Am7              C     G/B  G     F   Dm
And the sweet name he called me in his sleep last night

Dm
Oh, that's not like him

Dm                    Am7
I caught a glimpse of Tom today

Dm                              C
At a checkout counter, about to pay

         Dm              Am7
He had a girl on his arm

Dm                              Am7
I'm glad he's helping out the poor

      Dm                     C
It's not like the Tom I knew before

F            C                Bb  Am7
Something so touching it made me cry

        Dm                           Am7
But my heart was racing, I don't know why

      Bb                            C
Those new blue suede shoes, that's not like him

    Bb                      C
The Ray Ban shades, that's not like him

      Bb                     C
Those downtown ways, that's not like him

F                     Am7               C    G/B  G      F   Dm
And the sweet name he called me in his sleep last night

Dm
Oh, that's not like him

     Bb                     C
The red suspenders, that's not like him

    Bb                              C
The berries in the blender, that's not like him

      Bb                          C
Those twelve step groups, that's not like him

    Bb                  C
And Guadeloupe, that's not like him

      Bb                    C
Those books on Zen, that's not like him

    Bb                      C
The Karate classes, that's not like him

The fishing gear, that's not like him

Not like him, That's not like him
