"Bad Toupee" by Lazy Susan

A really simple song, again thats the beauty of pop! Where the F is marked
with a *, it means play the fulle barre chord, and hammer your finger on
to the 6th string 1st fret from the open string for the little riff effect
that Pete plays.



     G
I am soft from my life and too soft for a wife I know
     C                            B
I'll never have, but that's not so bad.
      G
'Cos I won't change a thing, I won't lift a finger more
       C                B
than I have to, just to get through.
Am            Em         D          Am
I could say a lot about being in a rut
            Em         D
if I hadn't already forgot.
          Am      G/B C
Wouldn't you know it?

     G                                                 C
Some avoid things for weeks out of fear of getting too familiar.
                   B
"'Cos that's what kills ya".
         G
But I'll take dull routine over magazines that tell me
  C                      B
"What to do when you get run thru".
Am        Em               D            Am
If I never move from this spot I'll be safe
                 Em           D
from hurting you and making mistakes.
             Am    G/B C
So I'm never moving.

G                C             G               C
If I can spot a bad toupee on some poor sucker miles away,
F*
how come I couldn't spot this going wrong,
D
I couldn't stop this coming
G             C           G                 C
On and on in TV shows, in books I read and videos,
F*
I don't know how to ever get it back,
D                              Am   G/B C
it's just a long day turning black.

B                     Em
She must know I'm not sleeping
          Am                 C              D
and I can hear her press the handset to her ear,
              Em                 Am                 C
and close the front door with no tears and put the car into
       G    C   G   C   F*   D
first gear.

G                C             G               C
If I can spot a bad toupee on some poor sucker miles away,
F*
how come I couldn't spot this going wrong,
D
I couldn't stop this coming
G             C           G                 C
On and on in TV shows, in books I read and videos,
F*
I don't know how to ever get it back,
D                             G   C   G   F*  D
it's just a long day turning black.
