NOT WHAT YOU THINK IT IS – Dan Mangan
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Standard
Capo: 2nd fret
Verse 1:
You would think that keeping up would be easier
Living large and living straight bend yourself
Summertime it always seems to come creeping up
Keep in mind you wanted to
Chorus:
You’re cold and you’re tired
You’re hurt and you’re sad
For all that you give us
For all that you had
It’s not what you think it is
It’s not what you think it is
It’s not what you think it is
Verse 2:
You would think that living large and living well
Will wear you down and wear you thin and where you gone
And don’t you know that I’m grumpy when the time is right
And time is on my side
Baby you could fix me up
I could do the same for you and maybe sometime soon
We can spend some time alone to talk about the things
We should talk about
Tell me about the time when everything’s a mess
Tell me about the time I haven’t heard it yet
About the time, tell me about the time, tell me about the
Time, cos all you need is time
Chorus:
You’re cold and you’re tired
Things just aren’t well
Frightful of strangers
Scared of yourself
It’s not what you think it is
It’s not what you think it is
It’s not what you think it is
Solo
Verse 3:
You’re strung out and there’s hell to pay
You’re holding out for some better day
Chorus:
And your feet are inspired
We need some fresh air
And your fingers are on fire
Release it all there
It’s not what you think it is
It’s not what you think it might be
It’s not what you think it is
