One of my favorite of Cullum's songs, also the title of his second album. F#m D7 F#m D7
After yF#mears of expensive eduD7cation, A cF#mar full of books and anticiG7pation I'm an eF#mxpert on Shakespeare and that's a Emhell of a lot. C#mb6 C7#11 F#m D7 But the world don't need scholars as much as I thought. MaybF#me I'll go trav'ling D7for a year, fF#minding myself, Or sG7tart a career. I could wF#mork for the poor, though I'm Em7hungry for fame. C#mb6 C7#11 We all seem so diff'rent but we're just the same. MaybF#me go to the gym so I doD7n't get fat. Aren't tF#mhings more easy with a tightG7 six pack' F#mWho knows the answers, Em7who do you trust' C#mb6 C7#11 I can't even separate love from lust. MaybF#me move back home and pay oD7ff my loans, Working nF#mine to five, G7answering phones. F#mDon't make me live for my Em7friday nights, C#mb6 C7#11 Drinking eight pints and getting in fights.

I don't wF#mant to get up, just Em7let me lie in; C#mb6 C7#11 Bmaj7 Leave me alone, I'm a twenty-something. Maybe I'll just F#maj7fall in love. Bmaj7That could solve it all. F#maj7 PhiBmaj7losophers says that F#maj7that's enough. There sDmaj7urely must be more.C#aug7. oooo...

Love ain't the answer, D7nor is work. The tF#mruth eludes me so much it hG7urts. But I'm sF#mtill having fun and I gEm7uess that's the key. C#mb6 C7#11 I'm a twentysomething and I'll keep being me. F#mDo do and do do and do and do do do do D9 Do and do do and do and do do do do F#m Do and do do and do and do do do do D9 Do and do do and do and do do do doF#m Do and do do and do and do do do doD9 Do and do do and do and do do G7do.
