Strung Out Again
Elliott Smith
[Verse] You get what you see I saw the rich fuck giving charity Dm Ddim I saw an evil emperor Wearing my clothes They’re far from the best But they might suit you better than the rest Just looking in the mirror Will make you a brave man [Chorus] I know my place I hate my face I know how I began And how I’ll end Strung out again [Verse] Was a parliament of owls Flying over the city of canals Dm Ddim Floating on the body Floating in the dalles You get what you see Some things they just change invisibly Dm Ddim Don’t know where I’m going Don’t even wanna know [Chorus] I know my face I hate my place I know how I began And how I’ll end Strung out again [Bridge] Standing smiling on some fantasy island Looking at my lost reflection again But a tides coming in and I’m strung out again Strung out again
