Chords for Augie March - Fake Jive (Lyric Video)

_ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] It's just a painting, it's just a [F#m] soul
Under a split miraculous [A] rag
On holding the promise of happiness [F#m] high
Beauty is speck in a dilated [B] eye
Or you draw yourself a little [F#m] leaner
And you sing like somebody [D] meaner than you are
[B] Don't you, [E] tiger?
Of [A] paper, a many-falls [F#m]-windowed thing
A kite and a lecturing [A] wind
Awaiting intellectual [F#m] strike
Cast the pens down in the [B] dawn
Tonight have you read the poets [F#m] lately?
They don't get a weekly, [D] a monthly, a _ biannual
And [E] you may cry, but I doubt you will, [A] yeah _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ _ _ [A] Ten years is all it took
Ten [F#m] years in thrall for this little crook
Now [A] you don't know the crooked lay of the [F#m] land
You don't trust any man to [E] shake your hand
Without taking a thumb or [F#m] a finger
How the violet scent will [D] linger
While a swede will pass away [E] so swiftly
_ _ [A] On this patriot day, sound [F#m] a national band
Sweet complaining, sombre and [A] bland
And I will rule the perfect [F#m] stanza
For music with a deaf, sure, fubrous, [E] old plan
Hitch a skiff with a dusky [F#m] adorter
Sail down a river of [D] grey water
Music keeping the [E] train alive
With all [A] its faint charm
[F#m] _
_ [D] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ [D] _

_ [F#m] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] Life is a painting, life is a [F#m] song
It holds the promise of happiness
[A] I can tell you where it goes wrong
As good as tell you why the longing [E] longs
You the poor painter, average [F#m] singer
Maybe you never went to the [D] ringer
Enough, or loved it so [E] you came out wrong
_ [A] Like a cracked bell I continue to tell the same sad tale
A toll in my fate, a hold any note, rag fader
And [F#m] cast about for the blue of sport
And the [E] black and white storm
Oh, I've got lots of [F#m] advice
Never listen to any [D] advice
Or be a stard
Voice thrown, [E] flaming petard
When you [A] blow, blow hard
_ [D] _ [A] _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ [D] _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] _
