Chords

[Verse 1]

                     G#m7
At the bottom of the kitchen trash

I found the empty container Of take-out food with my name clearly written

F#maj7
on it

[Verse 2]

                     G#m7
Following a trail of footsteps from

The standing water in the bathroom I discovered my soaking wet bedroom slippers in the

F#maj7
hallway

[Pre-Chorus]

Amaj7                                    G#m7
Maybe I've been spoiled by a life of solitude

Dmaj7
Maybe there's some other way

C#
I can express my gratitude

[Chorus]

                       E
But the presence of so many friendly strangers

         B
makes me nervous

                          A
And it doesn't mean that I'm not truly

                   E
thankful for your service

[Verse 3]

G#m7
Lately I've been spending more and more

Of my free time hanging out in the empty back room Of the diner just up the

F#maj7
highway

                          G#m7
And it's just to give you elbow room that I've been making use

Of the sleeping bag that I keep rolled up and stashed behind my

F#maj7
couch

[Pre-Chorus]

Amaj7
Do you think that I think I'm somehow better

       G#m7
than you?

                 Dmaj7
Please accept my word

                                        C#
That nothing could be further from the truth

[Chorus]

                       E
But the presence of so many friendly strangers

         B
makes me nervous

                         A
And it doesn't mean that I'm not truly

                   E
thankful for your service
