Whatever Happened To Paul Sand

Dm              Fm
C       G/B     Am


[Verse 1]
Dm                      Fm
There was a time when I remembered everything she said
C       G/B              Am
Now I barely know at all


[Verse 2]
Dm                              Fm
Perhaps it’s my age, or the state my mind’s been in
C         G/B                      Am
It’s so hard to tell these days


[Verse 3]
Dm                              Fm
I recall a table, her cigarette held out the window
C         G/B               Am
Blowing ashes on our clothes


[Verse 4]
Dm
I lost feeling in my hands
Fm
“Don’t forget I want my records back…”

C         G/B           Am


[Verse 5]
Dm                                  Fm
Stepping out of line at the supermarket checkout counter
C           G/B            Am
“Whatever happened to Paul Sand?”


[Verse 6]
Dm                                       Fm
“My lord these days are strange, I don’t know who I am anymore”
C                   G/B            Am
“And why can I never find a pay phone?”


[Verse 7]
Dm                                       Fm
“With my luck, I’d be kidnapped, make my escape,
                             C     G/B  Am
and get your answering machine”


[Verse 8]
Dm                                  Fm
“It’s your turn to feed the meter”
                            C           G/B         Am
“Are you paying close attention?”


[outro verse 1]
Em                              A
Made the bed, and cut my hair today
Em                              A
Replaced the light above the sink
Em                              A
Drove myself to the grocery store
C                               D               Em
Made it back just in time for the fights


[outro verse 2]
Em                              A
“Here’s the coat I made for Mrs Brown”
Em                              A
“I met her son for the first time today”
Em                              A
“You would like him, he’s a weatherman”
C                               D
“He is tall just like you”
C                               D
“…spent some time in Arizona”
C                               D               Em
“Newly divorced, and starting over”
