[Verse 1]
---------------------
E              Emaj7
 I fell upon a Tuesday
D               C#m
 When I had just   got down to work
A     E           F#m
 And everything went grey
A B E                  Emaj7
     So I caught a bus Wednesday
D              C#m               A
 Thought a vacation well deserved
       E         F#m   A B
And all    my edges frayed

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
A             Am
 Address your letters to:

[Chorus (1)]

E       Emaj7
Midlist author
C#m                      B                          F#m
   You're never the best, but you're never the worst
E        Emaj7
Why even bother
C#m                     B                         F#m
   You'll never be last, but you'll never be first
          A
Have another taste of fame
             Am
When they mispronounce your name

[Intrelude (1)]
---------------------
E Emaj7 D             C#m       A
        When they mispronounce your name
E | F#m | A | B 

[Verse 2]
---------------------
E                   Emaj7
 Strolled along the seaside
D                 C#m                A
 Among all the vulgar cheering crowds
         E              F#m
And a boy    cries for his dog
A B E            Emaj7
     Stolen by a riptide
D                   C#m                   A
 His mother explains   he's surely drowned
           E       F#m A B
As he weeps    upon a log

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
A           Am
 And all my readers sing,

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
E       Emaj7
Midlist author
C#m                      B                          F#m
   You're never the best, but you're never the worst
E        Emaj7
Why even bother
C#m                     B                         F#m
   You'll never be last, but you'll never be first
         A
Maybe one more glass of wine
           Am
Will make everything seem fine

[Intrelude (2)]
---------------------
E Emaj7 D       C#m                A
        Maybe everything will seem fine
E | F#m | A | B 

[Bridge]
---------------------
C#m                        E
   And nobody's taking chances
C#m                         E
   All those dwindling advances
            A
Get you down
                    Bsus4
They get you down...

[Verse 3]
---------------------
E          Emaj7
 Shuffling homeward
D                   C#m             A
 I checked the receiver on the phone
   E       F#m
No messages returned
A B E                  Emaj7
     So I started up a new thing
D                    C#m                 A
 Something 'bout the sea, a boy, and his dog
         E               F#m   A B
And these    were the first words:

[Pre-Chorus (3)]
---------------------
A     Am
 "Dedication TK"

[Chorus (3)]

C#m                      B                          F#m
   You're never the best, but you're never the worst
E        Emaj7
Why even bother
C#m                     B                         F#m
   You'll never be last, but you'll never be first

[Outro]

        A
Maybe novel twenty two
             Am            E
Make them all  remember you
