As recorded by Matt Nathanson (From the 1999 Album STILL WATING FOR SPRING) [Intro] D G Bm A D G Bm A D G Bm A D G Bm A [Verse 1]
D      G       D
What a spoiled boy I've been

G                       A       G
My mouth full, mess, my arms outstreched

         D                                G
I've got palm sweat, I'm smiling like I'm competition

                A    G  
Well, maybe I'm yours
[Chorus]
Bm                 A             D          G
 She said, "I know you, you're a salesman's son

G
And you're pimping pretty junk"

G
And I said

D             G
"What am I supposed to do

        D                Bm
They've built the scenes around you

    D    G A 
And I need more than this"

               D            G
And she said, "what am I supposed to do

A              Bm
Look at what's become of you

    D    G A            
And I need more than this"
[Interlude] D G Bm A D G Bm A [Verse 2]
D      G           D      G     
"Go on then, hitch me up, baby

                A        G
If what I am is not enough

                      D        G
Because I do love the glow you get

G
When you're told word for word

       A             G
How to think for yourself"
[Chorus]
Bm                 A             D          G
 She said, "I know you, you're a salesman's son

And you're pimping pretty junk"

G
And I said

D             G
"What am I supposed to do

        D                Bm

    D    G A 
And I need more than this"

               D            G
And she said, "what am I supposed to do

A              Bm
Look at what's become of you

    D    G A            
And I need more than this"

Bm  D 
I'm through now 

G         A              Em
And I need more than this

    D    G
I'm tired

   A                      Bm Gm A 
Of baring my teeth when I smile
[Guitar Solo] D G Bm A D G Bm A D G Bm A D G Bm A [Chorus]
