Stay Loose

	  		Dm                  C                     Am                 Bb 
I was choking on a cornflake / You said ?Have some toast instead? 
I was sleeping maybe three hours / You said ?You should get to bed? 
I was waiting at the church door / For the minister to show 
Dm                    C                    Am               Bb    Am    G 
I was looking at the new year / You said ?Walk before you crawl? 

I was feeling like a loser / You said ?Hey, you?ve still got me?  
I was feeling pretty lonely / You said ?You wanted to be free? 
I was looking for a good time / You said ?Let the good times start? 
With a quiver of your eyelid / You took on someone else?s part 

     Bb    C    F      Bb       C   F 
But what about me / I don?t really see 
      Bb       C    F                 Bb          C    
How things will improve / If all you want is to stay... 

Dm                   C                  Am               Bb 
Maybe I?m a little greedy / You said ?Think before you speak? 
Sometimes I?m a little seedy / You said ?Everyone is weak? 
Now I feel a little better / Is there something I can do? 
But I never heard the answer / I never had a clue 

But what about me / I don?t really see 
How things will improve / If all you want is to stay loose 

     Dm                    C                 
The lights are out in the house tonight 
        Bb                       Am             C  
And I creep around / I'm gonna creep into your head 
         Bb          C 
All you want is to stay 

There?s a little echo calling / Like a miner trapped inside 
If I tell her of this moment / She will in me doubts confide 
And she?s on me like a blanket / Like a stalk of wilting grass 
I?m not sure about her motives / I?m not sure about her past 

But my faith is like a bullet / My belief is like a bolt 
The only thing that lets me sleep at night / A little carriage of the soul 
If it starts a little bleaker / Then the year may yet be gold 
Happiness is not for keeping / Happiness is not my goal 

But what about me / I don?t really see 
How things will improve / If all you want is to stay loose 

But what about them / You play mother hen 
To a gaggle of gangling youth / All you want is to stay loose 

Dm                        Am 
I was living through the seconds 
       Bb           F 
My composure was a mess 
       Bb               F 
I was miles from tenderness 
        Bb                                     C 
It was dark outside, the day it was broken in pieces 

Everything is flat and dreary 
I couldn?t care what?s in the news 
Television is the blues 
Television is hysterical laughter of people 

       Bb               C 
And I know it could be me 
                       Dm    C     Bb    Am 
I?m always asking for more (more, more, more) 
        Bb               F 
I keep running round in circles 
        Bb            F 
I keep looking for a doorway 
              Bb                                             C 
I?m going to need two lives / To follow the paths I?ve been taking
