G   Dsus/F#   C9 
{intro x2} 
 
G              Dsus/F#       C9 
 I thought the time   was    passed when I could 
 
G              Dsus/F#       C9 
          Find beauty in a verse 
 
G              Dsus/F#       C9 
     I set the stage and the scenery 
 
G              Dsus/F#       C9 
         Rehearsing every  word, yeah 
 
     D               D 
 But when I tried to make it more 
 
             C9           G 
 Well it was     always less 
 
            D                 D 
 And it's a thin line between pleasing yourself 
 
              C9           G/B G/A G 
 And pleasing     somebody e-  e-  else 
 
 Dsus/F#        C9 
         Oh yeah 
 
      G      Dsus/F#            C9 
 Oh yeah              All right 
 
 
G              Dsus/F#       C9 
     With my confidence on  fire 
  
G              Dsus/F#       C9 
     I set to fixin' up my    role 
 
G              Dsus/F#       C9 
       My separation of desire 
 
G              Dsus/F#              C9 
 Just left me  deeper down in the hole, yeah 
 
 D               D 
 When I tried to make it more 
 
               C9          G 
 Well it was      always less 
 
            D                 D 
 And it's a thin line between pleasing yourself 
 
              C9             G 
 And pleasing     somebody  else 
 
          D               D 
 Yeah and when I tried to make it more 
 
                C9          G 
 Well it was       always less 
 
        D                 D 
 It's a thin line between pleasing yourself 
 
               C9          G/B     {PLAY TAB} 
 And pleasing     somebody else
