Tuning: E A D G B E
I Guess this is played on a banjo with alternative tuning. I like the sound I get when using theese chords
for the intro/verse/instrumental parts:
Dsus2/E: x-x-2-2-3-0
D/F#: x-x-4-2-3-2
G: x-x-5-4-3-3
[Intro]
D Dsus2/E D/F# G D/F# Dsus2/E D
[Verse]
In a Dcoffee shop in a Dsus2/Ecity
Which is D/F#every coffee Gshop
In every D/F#city
On a Dsus2/Eday which is every Dday
I picked up a magDsus2/Eazine
Which is D/F#every magaGzine
Read a D/F#story then i forDsus2/Egot it right aDway
[Chorus]
And they say Bmgoldfish have no Amemory
I guess their Dlives are much like Gmine
And the Bmlittle plastic Acastle
Is a surDprise every Gtime
And it's Bmhard to say if they're Ahappy
But they Ddon't seem much to Gmind
[Instrumental]
D Dsus2/E D/F# G D/F# Dsus2/E D
[Verse]
From tDhe shape of your Dsus2/Eshaved head
I recognizD/F#ed your silhoGuette
As you waD/F#lked out of the Dsus2/Esun and sat Ddown
And the sight of your sleepy Dsus2/Esmile eclipsed all D/F#the other peopleG
As they D/F#paused to sneer at the Dsus2/Etwo girls from out of Dtown
[Chorus]
And i said, "Bmlook at you this Amorning
You Dare by far the Gcutest
But be Bmcareful getting Acoffee
I think these Dpeople want to shootG us
Or maybe therBme's some kind of local competAition here
To see Dwho can be the rudeGst"
[Instrumental]
D Dsus2/E D/F# G D/F# Dsus2/E D
[Verse]
People Dtalk about my Dsus2/Eimage
Like i D/F#come in two diGmensions
Like D/F#lipstick is a Dsus2/Esign of my decling Dmind
Like what i happen to be Dsus2/Ewearing
The day that D/F#someone takes a picGture
Is my neD/F#w statement for Dsus2/Eall womanDkind
[Chorus]
And i Bmwish they could see us Anow
In leather Dbras and rubber Gshorts
Like some ridBmiculous new team Auniform
For some riDdiculous new Gsport
Quick Bmsomeone call the Agirl police
And Dfile a repGort
[Instrumental]
D Dsus2/E D/F# G D/F# Dsus2/E D
[Outro]
In a Dcoffee shop in a Dsus2/Ecity
Which is D/F#every coffee Gshop
In every D/F#city
On a Dsus2/Eday which is every day D
