Brendan Benson - Jetlag
Album: Lapalco
F# A#m
My so called friends
F# A#m
where are they now?
G/A#m F# C# F
I guess a love that bends isn't worth much anyhow.
F# A#m F# A#m
They come and go. They talk their shit.
G/A#m Eb C# F
But when I really need to know - all I get is spit in my eye
F# A#m F# G/A#m
The less I know the better, the faster I go - Jet setter!
F#7 Ebm7 C# F7
I chase around the world but I never get the girl
A#m F# A#m F#
But I don't let it bother me. I cut out any part of me
C# Ebm F# G#
That's been bruised and refused and misused or confused
F# A#m F# A#m
Some people wanna know all about my history
G/A#m F# C# F
But no-one seems to care that none of it's note-worthy

F# A#m F# A#m
But I talked so much, as it were, that I made the local news
Ebm F# A#m G#
"The boy has got the magic touch, and he can't ever lose!"
F# A#m F# G/A#m
My present situation is no longer inspiration
F# Eb G# C#
My precious generation is killing their time
Ebm F# G#
behind their backs - I'm slipping through the cracks!
A#m F# A#m F#
And it doesn't really matter if you won't have any part of this,
C# F#7 C# F#7
my scheme I've devised, where my team is diguised,
Ebm G# F#
and we seem like ordinary guys - but surprise!
A#m F# A#m
I'm hardly phased anymore, by your classless ways
Ebm7 G# F#
It takes more than that to amaze me these days
A#m F# A#m
I'm so messed up. Never know what time it is.
G/A#m F# A#m G#
Jetlag's the price you pay to play showbiz, kid
F# A#m F# G/A#m
And I stayed up late the night before
F# Ebm C#
I slept the whole way on the plane and now my neck is sore
F#7 C# F#7 C#
Outro - F#, A#m, C#, G# repeated
