...NEW BIOGRAPHY... by Van Morrison
-------------------................
*from 'Back On Top' (1999)*
*CAPO 3rd FRET*
(Original Key: Eb)
Intro:
C Am, F G (x2)
Verse 1:
C Am
See you've got the new bi-ography,
F G
Where did they get the info from?
C Am
Same as before; some so-called friends,
F G
Who claim to have known me then.
Verse 2:
C Am
How come they've got such good memories,
F G
When I can't even re-member last week?
C Am
Got to question where they're coming from,
F G
What knowledge of me is it that they speak?
Bridge 1:
C Am
So far away, way back when,
F G
The people that claim to have known me then.
Chorus 1:
C Am
They're not on my wavelength and it's such a shame,
F G
That they have to play the name game.
C Am
The fame game, oh, the name game.
F G
Lord, it's a cryin' shame, Lord, tell me what's to blame?
Verse 3:
C Am
Reinvented all the stories they know,
F G
Give them all a different slant.
C Am
What is it that they're really looking for?
F G
Just a hobby on the internet.
Bridge 2:
C Am
So far away, way back when,
F G
The people that claim to have known me then.
Chorus 2:
C Am
They're not on my wavelength and it's such a shame,
F G
That they have to play the name game.
C Am
The fame game, oh, the name game.
F G
Lord, it's a cryin' shame, Lord, tell me what's to blame?
Sax Solo:
C Am, F G (x2)
Break:
Am
If they didn't really know me way back,
F G
How can they know me now in any respect?
Am
It's a pity they don't feel the pain,
F G
That they should pay the price to play, to play...
Chorus 3:
C Am
The fame game, oh, the name game.
F G
Lord, it's a cryin' shame, Lord, tell me what's to blame?
Chorus 4:
C Am
They're not on my wavelength and it's such a shame,
F G
That they have to play, have to play...
C Am
The fame game, oh, the name game.
F
Lord, it's a cryin' shame,
G
Lord, tell me what's to blame? They keep on playin'...
C Am
The fame game, oh, the name game.
F
Lord, it's a cryin' shame,
G
Lord, tell me what's to blame? They keep on playin'...
C Am
The fame game, oh, the name game.
F
Lord, it's a cryin' shame,
G
Lord, tell me what's to blame? They keep on playin'...
C Am
The fame game, oh, the name game.
F
Lord, it's a cryin' shame,
G
Lord, tell me what's to blame? They keep on playin'...
