_ _ _ _ [E] _ [Am] _
[G#] No, I'm a sick man.
_ [B] _
Leave _ me alone. _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ [Em] _ [Bm] _ _ _ _

_ [Em] _ [Bm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A#] _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G#] _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ Oh, yes, [F#m] because you [D] know something [F#m] is happening, _
_ [Bm] but you don't know what it is.
[D] _ [G] Do you, _ _ Mr.
[Bm] _ Jones? _
[Em] _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ [Bm] _ _ _ You walk in so politely, _ [A#] and say, is this where it is?
_ _ [D] Somebody points to you _ [G#] and says it's his.
And [G] _
you say, what's mine?
_ [D#] _ [Em]
Somebody else says what is.
And you [D] say, oh, my God, [F#m] am I here all _
[Bm] alone?
_ _ [D] Yes, but you know something [F#m] is happening, _ _ [Bm] but you don't know what it is.
[D] _
_ [Gm] Do you, [G] _ Mr.
_ [Bm] Jones?
_ _ [Em] _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _
[Bm] _ _ You're handing your money to [A#] _ go watch the geek
_ _ [D] who suddenly walks up to you _ [G#] when he hears you speak,
_ [G] _ saying how does it feel to _ [Em] be such a freak?
And you say, [D] _
impossible, [F#m] as he hands you a [Bm] blow.
Oh, _ yes, but [D] you know [F#m] something is happening,
[Bm] it's just that you don't know what it is.
[Am] _ _
[G] Get prepared to rage, Mr.
_ [D]
[Bm] Jones.
_ _ _ [Em] _ [Bm] _
_ [A#] He's always pretending he's with a person in [D] the gutter, or if that's how he walks in the gutter,
I'd rather [G#] walk with my head up in the gutter rather than actually crawling through the bloody [G] gutter,
just making a pile out of it.
Yeah, he's making a pile out of people.
[Em] It's a fancy square.
_ Yeah, that's how it feels.
[D] And sometimes he manages [F#m] just to hit the right notes or to say [Bm] the right thing.
_ _ _ [D] Words are good.
All his songs are good.
[F#m] He's better than Donovan.
[B]
He's better than Elvis Presley, [Bm] too.
I [G] don't know.
_ Read a pretty decent poet.
[B] Shakespeare, perhaps.
[Bm] I can't remember.
[Em] _ [Bm] _
You _ _ [Em] _ [Bm] _ _
_ have many contacts _
[D] out there among these other chicks.
[G] You get too fat for someone to touch your [Bm] imagination.
_ _ _ [Em] _ [Bm] _ _
But nobody has any [D] respect.
Not in the way they already expect.
[G] _
You just take your check over [Em] to
the inexorable charity [A]
organization. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#m] Ah, _ [Bm]
you've been with the professors
and [A#]
they've all had your looks.
_ [D]
You've met great lawyers and scholars.
_ _ [G#]
You've discussed letters and _ [G] proofs.
You've been to all of
[Em] Bev Scott Fitzgerald's books.
[D] You're very well [F#m] read as well.
[Bm]
Now,
_ _ guess [D] what?
Something is [F#m] happening
and you [Bm] don't know what it is.
[D] _ _ [G] _
_ Mr.
_ _ [B]
[Bm] Jones.
_ [Em] _ [Bm] _ _ _
_ _ [Em] _ [Bm] _ _
You see this one-eyed midget
_ _ [A#]
shouting the word,
Ow!
_ _ [D]
And you say, for what reason?
_ _ [G#]
And he says,
Ow!
_ _ [G]
And you say, oh my God, what does that mean?
_ _ [Em]
And he screams back, you're a cow!
[D] Give me some milk, [F#m] Oscar!
[Bm] Ow!
_ _ _ Yes, [D] now you're positive [F#m] something's happening
[Bm] and you better find out what it is.
[D] You [G] know that, don't you, Mr.
[A] _
[Bm] Jones?
[Em] _ [Bm] _ _ _
_ _ [Em] _ [Bm] _ _ _
You walk into the room _ _
[A#] like a camel and you frown.
_ [D]
You put your eyes in your pockets. _
[G#] And your nose into the ground. _ _
[G] And I feel the law _
[Em] against you coming around.
_ You should [D] be made
to [F#m] be carrying at all [Bm] times a telephone.
_ Yes, [D] because something [F#m] is happening
[Bm] and you don't know what it [D] is.
I [G] love you, _ Mr.
[Bm] _ Jones.
_ [Em] _ [Bm] _ [F#m] _ [B] _ _ [Bm] _ [Em] _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _
