verse 1 A C I am not what I once used to be, I was once what I am but now I'm not A C and even though you'll find some spirit in this tune you will never understand my point of view D E D F and it feels such a cool sensation living life alive as God's creation E you don't know me, you can't see my face when you look in the mirror G someone else is always looking back at you E you try to grow up but you know you're gonna to be a faliure E D A so you stay young and hide your head deep within this tune on a Sunday afternoon verse 2 A I got something and I feel it in my head C I write the songs and make them rhyme and play them once again C A but do you notice or even care a bit for what I say D E for you simply entertainment flowing from my brain A C A your head, my hand, your touch my love A C I see your face on the cover of a record I know you feel that you have to play along E D A as Im writing down the lyrics to this tune on Sunday afternoon Middle 8 E and in this world of truth, you have to sit down and write yourself a tune G or you'll be forgotten in the future which will be here before to soon verse 3 A if you feel that you're alive then you'd better join the race C if you ever see me cry then you'd better dry my face A if you think that I am good then you'd better tell me soon E D A for it my be that it all came into bloom on this Sunday afternoon.
