PART 1:

(reference notes: D4 F4 G4 D4)

(Bb)

what do i get?
(professor vox 2: “get what you can from it”)

(Cm7)

what was the use of taking my time?

(Bb)

you’re making me sound upset
(i’m really just out of it)

(Cm7)

flashes of happiness found at the scene of the…

(F#)

crime…
(a victimless crime)

VERSE 1:

[(Bb) (Bb7) (D#) (D#m) (C#m7) (F#)] x 3

(Bb)

you once made me feel nearly worthless
deserving of all of the worst things in life

(Cm7)

the type that you read in the papers
that once had some…

(F#)

children and the love of a wife….but what can change in the…

(Bb)

heat of a moment?

(Bb7)

my moment of passion

(D#)

i own it

(D#m)

and i’m not letting go

(Cm7)

you’re making me feel like a person
who really should…

(F#)

know

…and here i thought that we…

(Bb)

had a connection

(Bb7)

a moment of passion…it…

(D#)

happened
yo, i’m not letting

(D#m)

go
but what was i

(Cm7)

thinking?
hey, wouldn’t you like to

(F#)

know
it was then that you

(Bb)

changed your direction

(Bb7)

abruptly shift course
and i

(D#)

knew that the tide had

(D#m)

arrived…those…

(Cm7)

immaculate times when she

(F#)

swallowed my pride

BRIDGE:

(Cm Cm Cmsus2 Cm)

(Cmsus4 Cmsus4 Cm Cmsus4 F#)

(F# F#dim F# F#dim F# F#dim F# F# Cmsus2)

well do what thou wilt
but pay what ye owe
yea and you of all people should know

(Cm Cm Cmsus2 Cm)

(Cmsus4 Cmsus4 Cm Cmsus4 F#)

(F# F#dim F# F#dim F# F#dim F# F# Cmsus2)

admire from afar
but watch where ye go
yea, you beautiful people should know

(Cm Cm Cmsus2 Cm)

(Cmsus4 Cmsus4 Cm Cmsus4 F#)

(F# F#dim F# F#dim F# F#dim F# F#dim Bb)

figure me out
then leave me alone
yea, you and all your people should know

VERSE 2:

[(Bb) (Bb7) (D#) (D#m)]

there once was a time you was my universe
committing our passionless crimes

[(Bb) (Bb7) (D#) (D#m) (C#m7) (F#)]

all in the heat of a moment
my moment of passion
i own it and i’m not letting go
you seem like the sort of the person who really should know

[(Bb) (Bb7) (D#) (D#m) (C#m7) (F#)]

i played my part to perfection
and i’ll find my way out…
with my universal signs from above

i’m not an impermanent person
still i’ve never been loved

[(Bb) (Bb7) (D#) (D#m)]

cuz my moments of happiness
are tempered by the notion
that we’re meaningless motion in time

CODA:

(Cm7)

it’s a matter of needing a meaning…

(Gm)

all in a matter of moments…

(Cm7)

*all in the name of forgiveness*

(F#)

*all just serving our purposes*

baby maybe next…

(Bb)

time…

(channeling a thoroughly stoned don henley)
(recorded @ sharma studios / april 2010)

(can you spot the suicidal references?)
(the answer sheet will be featured in next week’s blog entry)

*naileth your first take*
(so sayeth macca, neil young, frusciante, among other well-respected rock musicians)
(even billy joel thoroughly understandeth this most important principle of the recording arts)
