Where I can speak my mind
[Gm7/C]I've been trying hard to[Bbadd9] find the people
That[Ab9] I won't leave be[Dm7/G]hind[G7-9]

I wish they could[G7-9]
Cm7 Dm7/C Cm7 Dm7/C (chords implied by BG vocals)

[Cm7]I gues[Dm7/C]s I just [Cm7]wasn't made f[F]or these [Bb/C]times[/Bb] [/Ab] [/G]
Verse 2:
Every time I get the inspiration
To go change things around
No one wants to help me look for places
Where new things might be found
Where can I turn
When my fair-weather friends cop out
What's it all about
Each time things start to happen again
I think I got something good goin' for myself and what goes wrong
(repeat chorus)

(I guess I just w[F6]asn't made for these times)
[Cm7]I guess[F6] I just w[Cm7]asn't made [F6]for these t[Cm7]imes (repeat; fade)
* according to Mark Linett (Endless Summer Quarterly, 12/94), the
layered vocal parts on these lines are:
(lead vocal): Sometimes I feel very sad
Ain't found the right thing I can put my heart and soul into
People I know don't want to be where I'm at
O quando per e, un dia per e (Italian? Portuguese?)
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
