E

[Verse 1]
---------------------
Bm         A          E           A
  I told Althea I was feeling lost
Bm           A      E
  Lacking in some direction
Bm            A      E        A
  Althea told me upon scrutiny
  Bm          A           E
My  back might need protection

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
A                   C#m
 I told Althea that treachery
D                         A
 Was tearing me limb from limb
C#m                   E
   Althea told me: now cool down boy
Bm           A     E
  Settle back easy Jim

[Solo 1]

Bm | A | E | A | Bm | A | E 
Bm | A | E | A | Bm | A | E 

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Bm           A          E         A
  You may be Saturday's child all grown
Bm             A              E
  Moving with a pinch of grace
Bm             A            E             A
  You may be a clown in the burying ground
Bm               A       E
  Or just another pretty face

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
A                        C#m
 You may be the fate of Ophelia
D                              A
Sleeping and perchance to dream
C#m                       E
   Honest to the point of recklessness
Bm             A         E
  Self centered to the extreme

[Solo 2]
---------------------
Bm | A | E | A | Bm | A | E 
Bm | A | E | A | Bm | A | E 

[Verse 3]
---------------------
Bm                A         E       A
  Ain't nobody messing with you but you
Bm                 A               E
  Your friends are getting most concerned
Bm               A
  Loose with the truth
     E         A
Maybe it's your fire
Bm           A          E
  But baby... don't get burned

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
A                   C#m
 When the smoke has cleared, she said
D                          A
 That's what she said to me
C#m                          E
   You're going to want a bed to lay your head
Bm            A     E
  And a little sympathy

[Solo 3]
---------------------
Bm | A | E | A | Bm | A | E 
Bm | A | E | A | Bm | A | E 

[Interlude]
---------------------
D                     G
 There are things you can replace
E
 And others you cannot
D                     G
 The time has come to weigh those things
E
 This space is getting hot
Bm              A                E
  You know this space is getting hot

[Solo 4]
---------------------
Bm | A | E | A | Bm | A | E 
Bm | A | E | A | Bm | A | E 

[Verse 4]
---------------------
Bm         A
  I told Althea
      E          A
I'm a roving sign
Bm               A          E
  That I was born to be a bachelor
Bm            A     E       A
  Althea told me: Ok that's fine
Bm   A                          E
  So now I'm out trying to catch her

[Chorus (4)]
---------------------
A                          C#m
 Can't talk to you without talking to me
      D                      A
We're guilty of the same old thing
C#m                   E
   Talking a lot about less and less
Bm              A            E
  And forgetting the love we bring

[Solo 5]
---------------------
Bm | A | E | A | Bm | A | E 
Bm | A | E | A | Bm | A | E 
Bm | A | E | A | Bm | A | E 
Bm | A | E | A | Bm | A | E 
Bm | A | E | A
