🎸 Ordinary Life chords by Ezra Furman

Verse:

F             C
I'm sick of this record already
F                 C     G
Let's wreck all the preconceived notions they bring to it
F            C
Check all the baggage or better yet burn it
G         G7
Start all over again

F                 C
Let's start with your life as you know it
F               C      G
Way back in our mothers' wombs folded like notebooks
F             C
We had no idea of all the tote bags and meat hooks
G           G7
Waiting out in the world

Chorus:

F        C
One September in Boston
G         Am
I lost the will to live
F         C           G
I was just like an astronaut cut from the ship
G7
Floating and waiting to die
F            C
I was sick of my ordinary life
F            C
I was so sick of ordinary life
F          C     G    G7
I was sick of this ordinary life


Verse:

F          C
The human mind gets sick real easy
F          C        G
The human mind gets way fucking sick of beauty
F          C
And I know, and it's happened to me
G
Again and again
G7
Again and again


F          C
You've gotta make it new
F          C       G
You've gotta keep it new to keep it true
F           C           G  G7
And you're allowed to do anything you've gotta do
F               C
Just cause you're sick of your ordinary life
F            C       G
Doesn't mean you should bottle up and die
F       C          G   G7
Lose your way completely but stay alive


Outro:

F       C
Ditty bop sha lang lang
F       C       G
Ditty bop sha lang sha ditty lang
F       C       G   G7
Ditty bop sha lang lang ditty lang
