The Other End(Of The Telescope)

Capo 3:  Eb maps as C

C2 | C2

*** Verse 1:
C2  G         D         G
Shall we agree that just this once
Em              D
I'm gonna change my life
C2       G       D    G
until it's just as tiny or
Em             F
important as you like
C2             G      D            C2
and in time, we won't even recall that we spoke
G         D         C2
Words that turned out to be as big as smoke
Em         D             G
like smoke, disappears in the air
C2     Em        D           G
there's always something smouldering somewhere

*** Chorus:
D                    C2            G
I know it don't make a difference to you
D                    C2            G
but oh, it sure made a difference to me
Em     D          C2           G
You'll see me off in the distance, I hope
Am
at the other end
C   D      C2
at the other end of the telescope

*** Verse 2:
There was a time not long ago                          C2  G   D   G
I dreamt that the world was flat                       Em      D
and all the colours bled away                          C2  G   D   G
and that was that                                      Em      Em (note!)
And in time, I could only believe in one thing         C2      G   D    C2
the sky was just phosphourus stars hung on strings             G   D    C2
and you swore that they'd always be mine               Em      D   G
when you can pull them down anytime                    Em      D   G

*** Chorus:
I know it don't make a difference to you               D       C2  G
but oh, it sure made a difference to me                D       C2  G
You'll see me off in the distance, I hope              Em  D   C2
at the other end                                       Am
at the other end of the telescope                      C       D        C2

*** Bridge:
D                      C2          G
There, there baby now, don't say a word
D                   C2        G
lie down baby, your vision is blurred
Em         D         C2
Your head is so sore from all of that thinking
Em
I don't want to hurt you now
C              Am          C              Am
but I think you're shrinking  (I think you're skrinking)

*** Verse 3:
You're half-naked ambition and                         C2  G   D   G
you're half out of your wits                           Em      D
and though your wristwatch always works                C2  G   D   G
your necktie never fits                                Em      F
Now its so hard to pick the receiver up                C2      G   D
and when I call, I never noticed you could be so small C2      G   D
the answer was under your nose                         Em      D   G
but the question never arose                           Em      D   G

*** Coda:
I know it don't make a difference to you               D       C2  G
but oh, it sure made a difference to me                D       C2  G
When you find me here at the end of my rope            Em  D   C2
when the head and heart of it finally elope            Em  D   C2
You can see us off in the distance, I hope             Em  D   C2
at the other end                                       Am
at the other end of the telescope                      C   D           C2
