[Verse 1]
Am Dm
I'm 
            E              Am               Dm
…on a straight line when a man comes 'round
        E               Am   Dm
and he got lines in the suit
        E            (Am)
coming out to make us moot
Am Dm
I'm…
        E          Am            Dm
moving on now if I like it or not
              E             Am Dm
he says I've got nowhere to go
         E                Am   Dm
tell me something I don't know
                 E
he's painting it out like I don't want to know

[Pre-Chorus]
      F              A
the picture has come down
              Dm                  A
I'm taking it off and throwing it out
      F         A                         Dm  F
the picture is about what could have been easier
      G                A
the picture is coming around now
 
[Chorus]
                Dm         F
how come I feel so washed up
        G                 A
at such a – such a tender age now
                Dm         F
how come I feel so washed up
      G                      A
the picture is coming around now
                   Dm  F
it could have been easier
        G
at such a - such a tender age
 
A      A/G   A       A      A/G   A
 
[Verse 2]
Am Dm
I'm
      E             Am            Dm
listening to the comforting sound
                E                  Am   Dm
of some kind of work being done outside
                    E                   (Am)
of sounds from next door the walls don't hide
Am Dm
I'm
      E          Am              Dm
listening to "Mountain to Sound"
         E                 Am   Dm
and the way it's panned is cool
            E               Am  Dm
but when I get back home to you
                   E                       A
there's got to be something more than that too
 
[Pre-Chorus]
    F               A
the human resource clerk
            Dm                 A
has two cigarettes and back to work
    F              A
she eats right but hurts
                                Dm        F
and she says it could have been good by now
         G                      A
it could have been more than a wage yeah
 
[Chorus]
                   Dm         F
how come she feels so washed up
        G               A
at such a such a tender age now
                   Dm  F
it could have been easier
         G                      A
it could have been more than a wage
                   Dm         F
how come she feels so washed up
        G        A
at such a tender age
 
A      A/G   A       A      A/G   A
 
[Outro]
Am Dm
I'm…
           E             Am               Dm
on a straight line and a man comes around
       E             Am Dm
and I got nowhere to go
                    E                Am
come back and tell something I don't know
