Big Bad World One

• E/A

Intro  E/A Amaj7 E/A Amaj7  

Verso 1: 
E/A              Em            
All alone by the table of food 
      D        G           D 
in my wrinkled suit and my borrowed tie 
E/A              Em               
Only thinking of something to say 
       D      G         D 
in the moment after the girl goes by 
G         G/F            G/E            G/Eb            
 Everyone else is having fun or else pretending to 
G       G/F         G/E  G/Eb            
 I eat another crudite 

Cadd9    G/B 
 I quit, I'm done 
 Asus4                          D 
'cause I don't think it's gonna turn out OK 
     Cadd9            G/B 
It's no fair and it's no fun 
   Asus4                 D 
If every time it's gonna end the same way: 
C#m7/b5     Cm             G 
 Me: zero, Big bad world: one 

Verso 2: 
E/A                 Em              
At the office we're all having cake 
            D         G          D 
'cause it's someone's birthday I don't know who 
E/A                  Em                
Get my plate and I'm scanning the room 
        D    G             D 
and the only seat is right next to you 
G          G/F           G/E                G/Eb            
 I get the nod, the tiny smile that doesn't come with teeth 
G          G/F              G/E   G/Eb            
 Maybe you don't know who I am 


Cadd9    G/B 
 I quit, I'm done 
  Asus4                          D 
'cause I don't think it's gonna turn out OK 
     Cadd9            G/B 
It's no fair and it's no fun 
   Asus4                 D 
If every time it's gonna end the same way: 
C#m7/b5     Cm             G 
 Me: zero, Big bad world: one 

Ponte: 
           C             G 
Staying in-side lying in bed 
         Am                   Em 
Noticing something that's not there 
          C                G 
Follow my heart, follow my head 
            Bb            C(alt)                E/A 
I'll follow anything that might get me somewhere

Verso 3: 
E/A                      Em                
Catch her eye when she's pouring my coffee 
    D         G           D 
and search my head for an opening line 
E/A              Em               
But I see by the look on her face 
     D       G               D 
if I keep my mouth shut I'll save some time 
G            G/F             G/E           G/Eb            
 What if the best that I can be just isn't good enough? 
G         G/F           G/E   G/Eb            
 Isn't it better not to know? 


Cadd9    G/B 
 I quit, I'm done 
  Asus4                          D 
'cause I don't think it's gonna turn out OK 
     Cadd9            G/B 
It's no fair and it's no fun 
   Asus4                 D 
If every time it's gonna end the same way: 
C#m7/b5     Cm              
 Me: zero, Big bad world: one
