Practical man

Download MP3

VERSE:
Bm
I wish that I was out at sea, on a boat – only me
Bm7
Waves crashin’ all around, drowning every sound

I wish that I was up in space, preserving the human race
With acts of depravity, that you can’t do in gravity

F#
But they’d never pick me
E
I’m just too repressed you see

CHORUS:
G
Always standing on the land
A
With my head down in my hands
D ; E
I’m a practical man
G
Never staying out late at night
A
Never getting in a fight
D ; E
I’m a practical man
G ;F#
A boring man, all I am

VERSE:
I wish that I could drift on drugs
Or find myself in a whiskey jug
I’d lie on the floor of my flat for days
In an alcoholic haze

I wish that I could take a trip
Down into my sub consciousness
I’d take a torch, follow the chains
Shine a light on the things that hold me down
Take a real good look around

CHORUS

D ;E
Practical man X2

G F# B
