* -> Strum only once
Start in C#m
VERSE:
I take too long to answer telephones
I take too long to type my name and record messages
But my handwriting is excellent
In fact it's second to none, none
I just got in from somewhere really good
They offered me the part of Bono and a speaking role
With all the merchandice and sunglasses
I could ever need, need
I drive round cities in a chariot
I get preferential treatment at the Marriot
But if the truth be told I'm naked under all these clothes
CHORUS:
I tell you what it is on my mind, ohhh
I only want to be in your record collection ohh, ohhh
I only want to be in your record collection ohh, ohhh
A* Eb* Ab*
And I'll do anything it takes just to get there
VERSE:
My brain is buzzing and the room is strange
Like that scene in trading places at the stock exchange
I made a million over night in '87
Now I'm living in my parking space, parking space
My teeth are bright and my hair is clean
I wear Paco Rabanne like I was Charlie Sheen
But in the rain we all look wet and in the snow we all look cold
CHORUS:
I tell you what it is on my mind, ohhh
I only want to be in your record collection ohh, ohhh
I only want to be in your record collection ohh, ohhh
A* Eb* Ab*
And I'll do anything it takes just to get there
VERSE:
C#m*
I'm not as clever as I thought I was
F#m*
It got pointed out to me as I was tying the knot
A* Eb* Ab* C#m
And all I want to know is how I got so far down, down
I'm not as lucky as I thought I was
My luck ran out they other day as I was crossing the road
Who would have thought a truck like that
Could have caused so much harm?
CHORUS:
I tell you what it is on my mind, ohhh
I only want to be in your record collection ohh, ohhh
I only want to be in your record collection ohh, ohhh
A* Eb* Ab*
And I'll do anything it takes just to get there
End in C#m, let ring.
Pretty sure it's 100% right. Great cover.
