(you don't have to use these exact fingers, I just found these the easiest to play)
Also, the [ ]s are the second person talking in the song, but you can sing the whole song with one person
F
She stole my daydreams
A
She stole my air guitar
Bb
[Exterior. Man on lawn, alone at dawn.]
F
Packed the typewriter
A
And drove off in her car
Bb
[A battered automobile drives past state line sign.]
Am Bb
And now I know that I'll rue the day
Am Bb
I let her get away
F D
I need a haircut
Gm C
I've got myself to blame
F
[A gloved hand spins a combination dial quickly
Eb
opening a large wall safe.]
F
He wasn't so fine
A
To my beginner's mind
Bb
[Motel. The other man, severe, refined.]
F
But with that big talk
A
I should have seen the signs
Bb
[Woman enters and they embrace. He packs duct tape, rope.]
Am Bb
And right on her he was fixing his aim
Am Bb
He pushed me out of frame
F D
I need new head shots
Gm C
I've got myself to blame
F
[She spins her ring to hide the diamond in her hand
Eb
and drops a gun into a small beaded purse.]
D
Know the diff between a script and a spec
It's a test, just the stage directions left
F C
And no camera angles to use, mm-hmm
D
A novice script may seem strange in this format
But like any other business
F C
It's a standard that the writer gets used to, aw-huh
F
My scenes are cut out
A
I'm just on speaker phone
Bb
(*Trumpet*)
F
For exposition
A
I'm out here on my own
Bb
(*Trumpet*)
Am Bb
And as the night falls on this sleepy town
Am Bb
The iris closes down
F D
I missed my close-up
Gm C F D
I've got myself to blame
Gm C F D
I've got myself to blame
Gm C F
I've got myself to blame
