Standard (EADGBE)
This time 'round how can I pretend
That I'm not a bad bad man
Old haunts with new zeros
A fading view of adulthood
Swinging key part ies
Well I hear it's a west coast t hing
Don't play down your hopeless int rigue
Well not everyone's l awn
Gets mowed twice a week
(What's that supposed to mean?)
I could be as faithful as a seahorse
And if you were a marine bi ologist
You'd know how t ender that line was
Honey pick up on the bittersweet
The tragedy that's life' s limbo stick
'Cause there's a tear jerker waiting in the w ings
Well that's still no reason to be so devoid of feel ing
Once you were a trophy for me
And as luck would have it I a trophy for you
