Chords for Robbie Fulks : I like Being Left Alone

[F#m] _ _ _ Thank you very much.
Well, since I've been to town last, I've got a brand new record out, and [F#] I know all 30 of you are happy [B] to hear about that one.
[F#] It's a_
I'm just teasing.
It's a_ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's one_
It's a live record, but_
I [G#] don't want to say, but_
I don't have to say, but it's a live record, but it's good!
Hey!
[F#] _ _ _ _
_ _ Like I was telling last night, it's got a bunch [G#] of exciting fresh new material on it, so don't think like, cheap trick at Budokan, then more Franken comes alive.
It's not that kind of deal.
It's an exciting piece of work, [F#] and _ _ the [D] first record [N] on this two-record set is like_
That's alright.
It's like a loud _ _ presentation like the one we did last year, if you were here.
They're all full of drunk people like yourselves [F#] yelling, _ _ and_
[G] Not quite like yourselves, actually.
This is an early crowd, [F#] isn't it?
This is more of the team crackers [G#m] set, is what I'm thinking. _ _
Yeah, a [D#] bunch of alcoholics and us screaming at them.
The second record [D#m] is more like this kind of thing.
It's [G#m] a polite audience [D#] like yourselves and [G#] us two, and a couple of other acoustic [B] [Fm] musicians from time to time [G#m] joining in. _
This [G] is off that [B] second disc, so it's one of the _ _ _ [F#] more laid-back affairs.
A song about getting on in life, and _ a _ _ _ _ _ _ little later in the [Gm] middle age, you find your pleasures start changing, [B] and_
[F#] _ _
This is a song about pretty much [B] the main pleasure left to a person in [F#] his or her mid-forties.
Those of you that are _ _ _ _ about that age may find that you agree with it.
It's a little tune called, I Like Being Left Alone. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I like being left [B]
alone.
_ _ _ _ _ [C#] I like chocolate pie, clear blue sky, a glass of cold [F#] Jerome. _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] I like [F#m] summer, [C#] I like fall, [F#] I like [B] music but no zoo. _ _ _ _ _
_ I [F#] like [C#] _ being left [F#] alone. _ _ _ _ _
[D#m] Talking about sales reps, _ _ _ [F#] talking about the government, _ _ _ talking [D#m] about the children, _ [B] _ _
I'm talking [F#] about you, you. _
_ _ Sometimes I'm [B] the sleep _ talker, _ _ everybody [F#] wants some. _
But I'd rather [D#m] be _ alone some, _ [B] _ I'd rather [C#] be _ blue.
_ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
I like being [B] left alone.
_ _ _ _ _ I'm a [C#] few miles away from the police, _ in the traffic, on the [F#] telephone. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] Don't care how little, [C#] how much I earn, [F#] if I can get one [B] thing in return.
[F#] _ [B] _ _ _
I [F#] just like [C#] _ being left [F#] alone. _ _ _ _ _

_ _ [B] _ _
I like [C#] chocolate pie, clear blue sky, a glass of cold [F#] Jerome.
_ _ _ _ _ I [B] _
like water, [F#] I like air, I like space [B] but not to share.
_ _ _ _ _ I like [C#] _ being [F#] left alone. _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] I like [F#] summer, I like fall, but the thing that [B] thrills me most of all, _ _ _ _ _ [F#] I [C#] like _ being _ _ left _ _ _ [F#] alone. _ _ _
