Stay Loose Belle and Sebastian
'Stay Loose' by BELLE AND SEBASTIAN
Enjoy!!
[Cm]I was choking on a co[Bb]rnflake
You said â[Gm]??Have some toast i[Ab]nsteadâ??
[Cm]I was sleeping maybe th[Bb]ree hours
You said â[Gm]??You should get to[Ab] bedâ??
[Cm]I was waiting at the ch[Bb]urch door\
For the [Gm]minister to sh[Ab]ow
[Cm]I was looking at the n[Bb]ew year
You said â[Gm]??Walk before you [Ab]cra[Gm]wlâ[Fm]??
[Cm]I was feeling like a [Bb]loser
You said â[Gm]??Hey, youâ??ve still [Ab]got meâ??
[Cm]I was feeling pretty l[Bb]onely
You said â??Yo[Gm]u wanted to be [Ab]freeâ??
[Cm]I was looking for a g[Bb]ood time
You said â?[Gm]?Let the good times[Ab] startâ??
[Cm]With a quiver of your ey[Bb]elid
You took on s[Gm]omeone elseâ??[Ab]s part
But what about [Eb]me
[Ab]I donâ??t really[Eb] see
[Ab]How things will [Eb]improve
If all you w[Ab]ant is to stay
[Cm]Maybe Iâ??m a little[Bb] greedy
You said â[Gm]??Think before you [Ab]speakâ??
[Cm]Sometimes Iâ??m a littl[Bb]e seedy
You said â?[Gm]?Everyone is [Ab]weakâ??
[Cm]Now I feel a little be[Bb]tter
Is there s[Gm]omething I can d[Ab]o?
[Cm]But I never heard the a[Bb]nswer
I n[Gm]ever had a c[Ab]lue
But what about [Eb]me
[Ab]I donâ??t really[Eb] see
[Ab]How things will i[Eb]mprove
If all you wa[Ab]nt is to stay
The l[Fm]ights are out
In the h[Gm]ouse tonight
And I cr[Ab]eep around
And Iâ??m[Eb] creeping to your[Bb] head
All you wa[Ab]nted to stay loo[Cm]se.
[Cm]Thereâ??s a little echo[Bb] calling
Like a m[Gm]iner trapped in[Ab]side
[Cm]If I tell her of this m[Bb]oment
She will in[Gm] me doubts conf[Ab]ide
[Cm]And sheâ??s on me like a [Bb]blanket
Like a s[Gm]talk of wilting gr[Ab]ass
[Cm]Iâ??m not sure about her m[Bb]otives
Iâ??m not[Gm] sure about her [Ab]pas[Gm]t[Fm]
[Cm]But my faith is like a b[Bb]ullet
My bel[Gm]ief is like a b[Ab]olt
[Cm]The only thing that lets [Bb]me sleep at night
A little car[Gm]riage of the s[Ab]oul
[Cm]If it starts a little bl[Bb]eaker
Then the y[Gm]ear may yet be g[Ab]old
[Cm]Happiness is not for ke[Bb]eping
Happ[Gm]iness is not my g[Ab]oal
So what about m[Eb]e
[Ab]I donâ??t really [Eb]see
[Ab]How things will im[Eb]prove
If all you [Ab]want is to stay lo[Eb]ose
[Ab]But what about th[Eb]em
[Ab]You play mother h[Eb]en
To a g[Ab]aggle of gangling you[Eb]th
If all you w[Ab]ant is to stay
The l[Fm]ights are out
In the h[Gm]ouse tonight
And I c[Ab]reep around
And Iâ??m [Eb]creeping to your[Bb] head
All you wa[Ab]nted to stay
[Cm]I was living through the sec[Gm]ond
My c[Ab]omposure was a m[Eb]ess
I was m[Fm]iles from tende[Cm]rness
It was d[Ab]ark outside, the d[Ab]ay it was l[Gm]ying in pi[Bb]eces
[Cm]Everything is flat and d[Gm]reary
I couldnâ??t[Ab] care whatâ??s in th[Eb]e news
Telev[Fm]ision is the b[Cm]lues
Tele[Ab]vision is hys[Ab]terical la[Gm]ughter of peo[Bb]ple
And I k[Ab]now it could be [Bb]me
Iâ??m always asking fo[Cm]r more[Bb], more,[Ab] more,[Gm] more
I keep ru[Ab]nning round in cir[Eb]cles
I keep lo[Ab]oking for a do[Eb]orway
Iâ??m going to[Ab] need two lives
To fo[Ab]llow the pa[Gm]ths Iâ??ve been [Bb]taking
