Chris Difford - Flat
(Difford/Hewerdine]
From the 2018 album, Pants
 
[Intro]
 
Gm | Gm | Eb Gm | Gm
 
[Verse 1]
Gm
Sometimes I wake up feeling flat
Gm G
Then I know that is that
Cm
I sit alone and stare at walls
Am D
I hear the nothing as it calls
Gm
I watch the sun rise in the east
Gm
I hate my face I hate my teeth
Cm
So this is all I have to say
D Gm
I’m feeling really flat to-day
 
[Verse 2]
Gm
I’m like a dog without a tail
Gm
I’m like a shell without a snail
Cm
I have no aims I have no goals
Am D
I’m feeling flat and full of holes
Gm
I try to smile but how it hurts
Gm
Here come the fits and now the spurts
Cm
But I won’t ride upon the waves
D Gm
I’m feeling really flat to-day
 
[Chorus]
G C
Even if Bridget Bardot walked in the room
A D
I would hang my head down to my hips
G C
Even if she said “I’d like to sleep with you”
A D
I’d turn away and eat my fish and chips
 
[Verse 2]
Gm
Sometimes I wake up feeling flat
Gm
The sheets are white the dog is black
Cm
I hit the fog machine and hide
Am D
I just recoil and creep in-side
Gm
And I can starve myself of friends
Gm
Where they begin this one ends
Cm
I won’t be coming out to play
D Gm
I’m feeling really flat to-day
 
[Instrumental]
 
Gm | Gm | Gm | Gm | Cm |Cm | Cm | D
 
[Chorus]
G C
Even if Bob Dylan walked in-to the room
A D
And said the two of us should write a song
G C
I would find a reason to ig-nore his words
A D
And tell him where I think they should be-long
 
[Verse 3]
Gm
Some days I manage to elude
Gm
The constant darkness and the mood
Cm
I raise my eyebrows to the sun
Am D
And join in life with everyone
Gm
And when I do I witness love
Gm
And then I’m made of finer stuff
Cm
But not right now I’m sad to say
D Gm
I’m feeling really flat to-day
 
[Outro]
 
Gm | Gm | Eb | Gm
