Frank Turner - I knew prufrock before he got famous

^CLet's begin at the beginning, we^Csus4're lovers and we're losers ^GWe're heroes and we're pioneers, we're b^Feggars and we're choosers ^GSkirting 'round the edges of the^Am ideal demographic ^GWe're always on the guest list,but we're^F always stuck in traffic ^CWe've watched our close associates Up an^Csus4d play their parts;  ^GThey're chatting up the it girls, And th^Fey're tearing up the charts, ^GWhile we were paying with coppers To get^Am our round in at the bar. ^GWe're the C-Team, we're the almost famou^Fs Old friends of the stars.

^CJustin is the last Of th^Csus4e great romantic poets, ^GAnd he's the only one among us Who is ev^Fer going to make it. ^GWe planned a revolution From a c^Amheap Southampton bistro. ^GI don't remember details But the^Fre were English boys with banjos. ^CJay is our St George, an^Csus4d he's standing on a wooden chair, ^GAnd he sings songs and he slays dragons, and he'^Fs losing all his hair.  ^GAdam is the resurrected spirit o^Amf Gram Parsons, ^GIn plaid instead of rhinestone a^Fnd living in South London. ^CAnd no one's really clear about Tommy's ^Csus4job description, ^GBut it's pretty clear he's vital^F to the whole damn operation. ^GDave Danger smiles at strangers, Tre's t^Amhe safest girl I know, ^GZo and Harps will skamper up to victory ^Fin the city we call home.

^AmWe won't change our ways, we wil^Gl proud remain when the glory fa^Fdes.

^CI am sick and tired of people Wh^Csus4o are living on the B-list. ^GThey're waiting to be famous And^F they're wondering why they do this. ^GAnd I know I'm not the one who i^Ams habitually optimistic, ^GBut I'm the one who's got the mi^Fcrophone here so just remember this: ^CLife is about love, last^Csus4 minutes and lost evenings, ^GAbout fire in our bellies and fu^Frtive little feelings, ^GAnd the aching amplitudes that s^Amet our needles all a-flickering, ^GAnd help us with remembering that the on^Fly thing that's left to do is li^Cve.

^FYeah the only thing that's left to do is live ^CAfter all the loving and the los^Csus4ing, ^GFor the heroes and the p^Fioneers, ^FThe only thing that's left to do I^Gs get another round in at the b^Car
