Tonart: A major•
Verse 1
A
When I run into friends of mine
E
I haven't seen in years,
They give me the once over then
A
their eyes well up with tears.
Then they pronounce me 'looking
D
great', I haven't changed a bit,
A
E
I flash 'em back a feeble
A
smile: I know I look like shit.
Verse 2
A
'Cos I saw myself this morning, phew,
E
and I know of what I speak.
I'm a human being,
A
but I look like I reek.
And a weaker bathroom lightbulb just
A
'Cos the mirror shatters your
E
A
illusions when you look like shit.
D
Verse 3
Shit comes in different colours,
A
B
and consistencies,
E
I guess that I'm just aging like the
Esus4
E
A
finest wine s and cheeses.
The guy that's me, who's in my dreams,
E
is twenty- five or six,
I'm old enough to be his dad,
A
how's that for parlour tricks?
Life's a job you're fired from,
D
unless of course you quit,
A
Gee, I wonder if that old blind guy
E
A
knows that he looks like shit?
Verse 4
A
Verse 5
E
'Scuse me? No, over here!
A
Verse 6
Although I know it's natural,
E
I still can't understand.
Once I looked like a million bucks,
A
now, more like two grand.
We start out with a lot of time,
D
but what happens to it?
A
Times flies when you fuck around
E
A
and then you look like shit!
Verse 7
A
Verse 8
Oh, ain't it the truth, brothers and sisters?
D
Shit comes in different colours,
A
B
and consistencies,
'Shit's a gift we make', Freud said,
E
'here, take mine won't you please?'
A
Growing old ain't easy,
E
C
E
it's a process so they say.
We proceed to our grand finales,
But dying doesn't worry me,
D
I'm not bothered a bit,
A
I just don't like the thought of
E
A
lying there looking like shit!
