Sports Team - Get Along

capo: 1st fret

[verse (1)]

G
he’s got a flat, it’s just south of the river
E
A wipe clean kitchen, white as an american smile
C
And wide as an american child

G
spends his weekends talking to his mother
E
About himself and how he’s got nobody to talk to ( boohoo now )
C G
he’s got nobody at all

[chorus (1)]

G Am
I guess he can’t get along
C G
Get along, get along
Em Am C G
i guess he can’t get along, get along

[verse (2)]

G
he’s got a flat, it’s one foot on the ladder
E
A new build, red brick, fifty feet of communal grass
C G
And you can’t put a price on that

G
Loves culture, sees what he’s able to
E
Spends his evenings playing house of pain on his hands
C G
And praying there’s no pain when he lands

[chorus (2)]

G Am
I guess he can’t get along
C G
Get along, get along
Em Am C G
i guess he can’t get along, get along

[instrumental]

G G C G

[Middle (8)]

Em C
it means nothing at all
Em C
until the key’s in the door
F
And the deed’s in his name
C
And he’s changing every lock in the place
Em C
and at the root of it all
Em C
is his reluctance to fall
F
And it’s always the same
C
Fifty minutes into work

[verse (3)]

G
And he just keeps walking, one foot then the other
Em
Beer or wine, i don’t know why he bothers, it’s all the same
C
And there’s not an easy laugh
G
And he wants tennis courts, swimming pools, water’s warm at the cote d’Azur
F C G
Well he dreams of yachts, well quite a lot, for him

[chorus (3)]

G Am C
i guess he can’t get along, get along
G Em
Two-up two-down, too busy to call
Am C
I guess he can’t get along, get along
G Em
Well the smile above the windsor seems wrong
Am
I guess he can’t get along
C G Am
Get along, get along
