Capo 2 

Intro: G 

verse 1 

Jonathan lives all on his own 

He can't have distraction in the home 

He stays locked in most days and nights 

Trying to create while the neighbours fight 


[Refrão]
            C                     F 
He says, "I don't have any inspiration 
       C                         G 
And my subject matter lacks invention" 

verse 2 

Jonathan's writing a book you see 

It's gonna be a masterpiece, a feat 

He doesn't have a title or a plot 

But he knows what's good and he knows what's not 


[Refrão]
            C                     F 
He says, "I don't have any inspiration 
       C                         G 
And my subject matter lacks invention" 
     C                     F 
If I only had an opening line 
          C                              G 
Well, I'm sure the rest would turn out fine" 

verse 3 

He's planning on at least a thousand pages 

It has to be a story for the ages 

But from War And Peace to How To Cook 

There's not much left for Jonathan's book 


[Refrão]
            C                     F 
He says, "I don't have any inspiration 
       C                         G 
And my subject matter lacks invention" 
     C                     F 
If I only had an opening line 
          C                              G     D 
Well, I'm sure the rest would turn out fine"
