It sounds best using the barr chords for most of the chords except in verse when going
A to normal E chord (i.e. fight to be someone) and also in the chorus going from A to E
I'm the one swinging).
Mike was riEght when he said I'd put up
A fiAght to be soEmeone, a fAight to be Bme
But see nEow, I'm down
Under the pavement
Of capAital hiElls and lowAercase peoBple
As tC#ime rolls Aby my dF#reams have beBcome
That wG#hich is attaiC#nable
NBot what I'm looking for!
IE've got the coBmpany cC#ar G G# A
I'm the one swEinging at tG#wo below pAar C
Yeah, I've become oEne with the oBnes
That I've neC#ver belAieved in
But IE've got the coG#mpany cAar
I'm the kEing of things I've always despised
I'm the ginAgerbread mEan
who got eaAten aliBve
I'm half-bEaked! I'm fake!
But see I've got hotels on
ParkA Place and BoEardwalk
And Atwo hundred bBucks
I pass C#go but, Aoh! Life's tF#aken its tBoll
Have G#I won MonC#opoly to fBorfiet my soul'
IE've got the coBmpany cC#ar G G# A
I'm the one swEinging at tG#wo below pAar C
Yeah, I've become oEne with the oBnes
That I've neC#ver belAieved in
But IE've got the coG#mpany cAar
BAll the king's hC#orses
At the fBboot of the wCall
TAhey're taking picBtures of
The mG#an who's lost aBbll of his
MAasks of pretension
He's got tEwo faces left
AHis is the one that he hF#ides
On the lAeft behind that smile...
No guitar for 1st half of this verse:
Hiding tears and fear
That burns like an engine
It drives him away
From the ones that he loves
Mike was rigEht:
"Hey Mike! We're one and the same;
we're the fAaceless combaEtants
in the loAnliest gaBme"
Ah but sC#ay, I'll wAave as IF#'m driving Bby
With that sG#mirk in my eC#ye, yelling
&Bquot;Hey! I'm something man, check me out!"
IE've got the coBmpany cC#ar G G# A
I'm the one swEinging at tG#wo below pAar C
