Of the local music mag

You missed the show last summer
But now you've got your chance
They're playing at The Railway
With another emo band

C    Am            Em
I'm ambitious when giving up
C    Am            Em
Never thinking clear enough
C               Am      G
But we're not Elvis anymore
C               G
We're not Frankie in his wild years
(mute)     C            Am
We're not Tina's glorious comeback
        C
We're not us
        Em
We're not us
C                       Am
Sold my soul to the devil for nice penmanship
Em
And now I write real pretty but I'm starting to regret it
C               Am                  Em
If all this was easy it wouldn't matter how it ends

I'm ambitious when giving up
Never thinking clear enough
But we're not Elvis anymore
We're not Frankie in his wild years
We're not Tina's glorious comeback
We're not us
We're not us

C            Am
We're not us anymore
Em
We're not us

We're not us anymore
We're not us
We're not us
