Chords

Note: You can also play the E/A as a regular old A major if that's your prerogative. [Intro] E/A E [Verse 1]
E/A                        E
Some things we simply must stand for

E/A               E
Power goes to the chords and such a

E/A                   E
stately whole note as yours

         E/A              E
At least widely touted as such

      E/A                  E
Some things we simply must stand for

E/A               E
Power goes to the chords and such

       E/A                   E
A semi-precious half note as yours

         E/A             E
At least highly regarded as such
[Chorus]
    A            B
But Melanie went gold

            C#m            B              E
She won't accept your best wishes anymore

    A              B             C#m         B
And Jennifer, your halter top, a consecrated altar, but

     A                  B
I've wrung my hands and knees in shame there

C#m              B   E
One too many times

    A                   B                 C#m
And what, specifically, about me made you choose

   B               A               B
To occupy the most absent stage of beauty

      C#m              B           E/A    E
So complete, and so serene, and so sweet?
E/A E [Verse 2]
E                E/A               E
You'll be new at what you do for a long time

       E/A           E
Still, victory isn't mine

                  E/A            E
I've traced your every move then erased them with

     E/A                 E
a cartographer's drunken haste

                 E/A               E
You'll be new at what you do for a long time

       E/A           E
Still, victory isn't mine

                  E/A            E
I've traced your every move then erased them with

     E/A                 E
a cartographer's drunken haste
[Chorus]
    A            B
But Melanie went gold

            C#m            B              E
She won't accept your best wishes anymore

    A              B             C#m         B
And Jennifer, your halter top, a consecrated altar, but

     A                  B
I've wrung my hands and knees in shame there

C#m              B   E
One too many times

    A                   B                 C#m
And what, specifically, about me made you choose

   B               A               B
To occupy the most absent stage of beauty

       C#m          B
So innocuous, so complete and so
[Interlude] A E G#m A E G#m A E G#m A E G#m A E G#m A E G#m [Chorus]
    A            B
But Melanie went gold

            C#m            B              E
She won't accept your best wishes anymore

    A              B             C#m         B
And Jennifer, your halter top, a consecrated altar, but

     A                  B
I've wrung my hands and knees in shame there

C#m              B   E
One too many times

    A                   B                 C#m
And what, specifically, about me made you choose

   B               A               B
To occupy the most absent stage of beauty

      C#m              B           E/A    E
So complete, and so serene, and so sweet?
[Outro] E/A E
