Gotta be [F#] a grown man, gotta be a grown [A] lady
I [D]
[F#m] [E] [D]
[A] [D]
[F#m] [B] [D] gotta
[F#] write another chapter, [D] I've been feeling incomplete
[E] This epic voyage of my [A] 30's, free it's a [G#m] little weak
[F#] So how did we end up here, [D] sidelined on the coast
[E] We finally stopped our ramble, [A] pulled in happily [G#m] by the shore
[F#m] Now I'm afraid I'm gonna die here, [D] dried up like some beast's will
[A] And nobody [E] will ever [D] hear my tale
[F#] I was single in the city [D] of Northern LIC
[E] So I'm sorry to an [A] audience of friends and [G#m] family
[F#] But I wasn't seeking women, [D] though I stumbled on my share
[E] Back some in the 7th [A] Avenue, I took some [G#m] comfort there
[F#m] And then I met her, [D] I wilted down
[A] She planted [E] some, dropped [D] amongst the showers
[A] Burned out like a child's [D] will in a sparkler
[A] I got her [E] as far as [F#m] Iowa, she started [B] to regain [D] most of her color
That's when she told me there was [F#] another
[F#m] [D#m]
[F#m] [G#m] [F#] But love, it makes you lazy, [D] you don't ask questions anymore
[E] You settle into the furniture, [A] collecting cobwebs on the [G#m] porch
We got a [F#] cabin on the beach, I took [D] on a mistress of my own
[C#m] You knew that you [E] didn't say anything, [A] but you're scared [G#m] to be alone
[F#m] Not afraid we're gonna die here, the town's [D] bloated with old folks' homes
When [A] we kick the bucket, [E] who's to [D] really know?
They notice [B] once our breakfast has grown cold
And [A] when the orderly [E] steal our wedding rings
They [F#m] even care which [B] stories our bands [Bm] are called [D] to tell
You said, baby, you worry [F#m] so much [E] about dying
[D] If you care to really know, well, maybe so
Now tell me who [A] you've been with
[D] [F#m] [E]
[D] [A]
[D] [F#m] [B]
[D]
[F#] So I'll write another chapter, [D] I mean, it's all I can do
[E] In my body's tossed along the craggy [A] rocks of the book is [G#m] waterproof
[F#] I ain't into [F#m] no Pacific, [D] you're tied to knock out
Craggy [A] rocks of the book is [G#m] waterproof
[F#] I ain't into no Pacific, [D] you're tied to knock out
I'm a sin [E] obit, a [A] professional writer, [G#m] at last
[F#m] I'm afraid I'm gonna die here, [D] all comfy and content
I [A] wrote my own obit, [E] reduced to [D] one sentence
[A] Timothy [B] was a sensible [D] citizen
[A] He cast [E] aside his starving eyes [F#m] for his very own [B] slice of American pie
[D] A sensible decision
I better write another [A] chapter
[D] Yeah, I'll write another [F#m] chapter
[E] [D] I better write [A] another chapter
[F#m] [D] Yeah, I'll write another [F#m] chapter
[B] [D] Yeah, I'll write another [A] chapter
[D] Yeah, I'll write another [F#m] chapter
[E] I [D] know I'll write [F#m] another chapter
[A] [D] Yeah, I'll write [F#m] another chapter
