Obscurity Knocks
INTRO: A
A Bm
Always at the foot of the photograph - that's me there
A
Snug as a thug in a mugshot pose
Bm
Owner of this corner and not much more
A D E
Still these days I'm better placed to get my just rewards
A
I'll pound out a tune and very soon
D E
I'll have too much to say and a dead stupid name
CHORUS
A E
Though I ought to be learning I feel like a veteran
A E
Of "Oh I like your poetry but I hate your poems"
A E
Calendars crumble I'm knee deep in numbers
A E A
Turned 21, I've twist, I'm bust and wrong again
Rubbing shoulders with the sheets till two
Looking at my watch and I'm half-past caring
In the lap of luxury it comes to mind
Is this headboard hard? Am I a lap behind?
But to face doom in a sock-stenched room all by myself
Is the kind of fate I never contemplate
Lots of people would cry though none spring to mind
D
Know what it's like
To sigh at the sight of the first quarter of life?
Bm D
Every stopped to think and found out nothing was there?
E A
They laugh to see such fun
Bm D
Playing Blind Man's Bluff all by myself
A
And they're chanting a line from a nursery rhyme
E D
"Ba Ba Bleary Eyes - Have you any idea?"
A E A E
The calendar's cluttered with days that are numbered

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official TRASHCAN SINATRAS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
