As recorded by Matt Alber
(From the 2011 Album CONSTANT CROWS)
Capo 5th fret
[Intro]
N.C. Fmaj7
Mmmmmmm
Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
La die....
[Verse 1]
Fmaj7 Em7
Pardon me if I seem distracted
Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
I couldn't tell you which way is up, or how I got here
Fmaj7 Em7
It seems I've fallen into the same trap as last time
Dm7 Em7 Fmaj7
Oh but the last time, was the last time, or so I said
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7 Em7
It sure is kind of you to lend a hand. To my hand
Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
Tell me all the little things that friends say to friends
Fmaj7 Em7
Could I ask you to stay for one more?
Dm7 Em7 Fmaj7
'Cause there's one more thing that's been weighin' on my mind
[Chorus]
N.C. Fmaj7 Em7
Why does my lover seldomly seem to be wishin' on the same moon as I do?
Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
What started out as a dream got broken by a cold shoulder
Fmaj7 Em7
Lover, doesn't it seem strange, me laughin' at the same time as you don't?
Dm7
Oh but you won't bother when I do
Em7 Fmaj7
No over you won't bother when I do
Fmaj7
Will you?
[Interlude]
Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
[Verse 3]
Fmaj7 Em7
The roll of your eye, a disdainful remark
Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
That look of embarrassment at all my little joys
Fmaj7 Em7
I won't apologize getting lost in the music
Dm7 Em7 Fmaj7
'Cause there's a melody playin' and I'm guessin' you'll never hear
[Verse 4]
Fmaj7 Em7
It would do us no good to talk this over, babe
Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
I could toss a million times, but you would never catch my drift
Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
You didn't even seem to notice, but I noticed
Em7 Fmaj7
And I left there wondering
[Chorus]
N.C. Fmaj7 Em7
Why does my lover seldomly seem to be wishin' on the same moon as I do?
Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
What started out as a dream got broken by a cold shoulder
Fmaj7 Em7
Lover, doesn't it seem strange, me laughin' at the same time as you don't?
Dm7
Oh but you won't bother when I do
Em7 Fmaj7
No over you won't bother when I do
Fmaj7
Will you?
[Interlude]
Fmaj7 Em7 Fmaj7
Em7 Dm7 Fmaj7 Em7
Dm7 Em7 Fmaj7
[Out-Chorus]
N.C. Fmaj7 Em7
Why does my lover seldomly seem to be wishin' on the same moon as I do?
Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
What started out as a dream got broken by a cold shoulder
Fmaj7 Em7
Lover, doesn't it seem strange, me laughin' at the same time as you don't?
Dm7
Oh but you won't bother when I do
Em7
No you won't bother when I do
Fmaj7
No you won't bother when I do
Em7 Dm7
No you won't bother when I do
Fmaj7
Will you? Will you? Will you?
