 Evaporated                                      Ben Folds Five
as translated by skip allums, 1997.

F     Am    Bb     C
F     Am    Bb     C

F                    Am     Bb                C
 what i've kept with me and what i've thrown away
     F                   Am               Bb               C
 now where the hell i've ended up on this glary random day
           Dm              C                Bb              Am
 where the things i really cared about just left along the way
      C
 from being to pent up and proud


 woke up way to late feelin hungover and old
 and the sun was shining bright as i walked barefoot down the road
 started thinkin bout my old man it seeems that all men
 wanna get into their car and go

 Am    Bb
 any-  where

        Bb  C          Dm     Am
 here i stand sad and free
         Bb C        Dm     Am
 i can't cry i can't see
           Bb   C
 what i've done
   Dm      Am       Bb
 oh god what have i done?


F    Am   Bb   C
F    Am   Bb   C

 2nd verse

 chorus

 bridge-thingy


          F    Am    Bb
  ....and evaporated          see?

  3rd verse (quiet)

  blind man on a canyon's edge of a panoramic scene
  or maybe i'm a kite just flyin high in random dangling a string
  or slumped over in a vacant room, head on stranger's knee
  i'm sure back home they think i've lost my mind

  chorus


i didn't put the chords to the bridge-thingy cuz i'm not sure what they
are. i always just play the verse chords, but thats not really right. get
back to me if you figger them out.

OK....Here are all the chords!

F Am Bb C
What I've kept with me And what I've thrown away
F Am Bb C
And where the hell I've ended up On this glary random day
Dm G Bb F
Were the things I really cared about Just left along the way
C
For being too pent up and proud

(same)
Woke up way too late Feeling hung over and old

And the sun was shining bright And I walked barefoot down the road

Started thing about my old man It seems that all men

Wanna get into a car and go

Am Bb
Anywhere

Bb C Dm Am
Here I stand--sad & free
Bb C Dm Am
I can't cry and I can't see
Bb C
What I've done
Dm Am Bb
oh God...What have I done

(same)
So don't you know I'm numb, man No I don't feel a thing at all

Cause its all smiles & business these days and I am indifferent to the loss

I've faith that there's a soul whose leading me around

I wonder if she knows Which way is down...

(repeat chorus)
Here I stand--sad & free

I can't cry and I can't see

What I've done
Bb (drop Bb in chord 1/2 step, than another 1/2 step)
God...What have I done....ohhhh

C Bb C F Bb
I poured my heart out
C Bb
I poured my heart out

F Am Bb

(same)
Blind man on a canyon's edge of a Panoramic scene

Or maybe I'm a kite That's flying high & random

Dangling a string Or slumped over in a vacant room

Head on a stranger's knee I'm sure back home

They think I've lost my mind.

F Am Bb C
F Am Bb C

(repeat chorus)
Here I stand--sad & free

I can't cry and I can't see

What I've done

God...What have I done

Hello,

The transition in the chords in the 3rd line of the verse seems to be:

Dm G Bb F

I think this is the right chords from listening to the song. The first 2 lines sound correct and everything else fits so far. I'll post other changes if I find them.

Thanks
