Jonathans Book Chords

Teddy Thompson - Jonathan's Book
 
 
CAPO: 2nd Fret
 
 
 
[Intro]
G
 
[Verse 1]
 
Jonathan lives all on his own
 
He can't have distraction in the home
 
He stays locked in most days and nights
 
Trying to create while the neighbours fight
 
 
[Chorus]
            C                     F
He says, "I don't have any inspiration
       C                         G
And my subject matter lacks invention"
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Jonathan's writing a book you see
 
It's gonna be a masterpiece, a feat
 
He doesn't have a title or a plot
 
But he knows what's good and he knows what's not
 
 
[Chorus]
            C                     F
He says, "I don't have any inspiration
       C                         G
And my subject matter lacks invention"
     C                     F
If I only had an opening line
          C                              G
Well, I'm sure the rest would turn out fine"
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
He's planning on at least a thousand pages
 
It has to be a story for the ages
 
But from War And Peace to How To Cook
 
There's not much left for Jonathan's book
 
 
[Chorus]
            C                     F
He says, "I don't have any inspiration
       C                         G
And my subject matter lacks invention"
     C                     F
If I only had an opening line
          C                              G     D
Well, I'm sure the rest would turn out fine"
