My Uptight Life 

A section of the song (where the guitar slides up and down the fret board in
a weird fashion) is missing, but I reckon these chords are still worthwhile.


                   

                                                  
The morning sun  opens up my eyes
                                                
(What I see is the same world I know you're seeing)
                          
My dreams are real until I realise 
                                              
(Realising's a slow phase from thought to being )
                               
The waking world is full of cynic's sighs 
                                  
(Cynicisms a box I don't wanna be in)
                             
I'll stay in bed until I stabilise 

                                            
I try to write this song    To move my life along
                                        
I know what i dream of    I'll save my life for love 

        

                         
Hidden meanings don't need to hide 
                                                        
(When I hide from the world, you're the one who'll find me) 
                                 
A dormant scream from the world outside
                                             
(If the truth's overdue I know you'll remind me)
                                    
If the truth police are sniffing out a lie
                                              
(I've done nothing in life I can't put behind me) 
                        
I'll use my life as an alibi 

                              
Meaning is something I got from you 
                            
Whenever I lost the plot you knew
                                     
What is it I haven't got when I've got you 

(repeat)

                      

              



                          
All my life   I've felt so uptight
                    
Now its all alright  

(repeat to fade)
