Intro: play part A once
Verse 1: play both part A and B respectively
	I heard you record on the telephone - it was my cousin Joan
	She picked it up from the top 40 rack and then
	I read you interview in Rolling Stone - you threw the boys a bone
	And so I genuinely felt obliged to call
	I know you never meant to hurt us, man - We're just a baby band
	You found a quicker way to scale the wall of fame

Bm                  G (with riff 1)

Bm                     G (with riff 1)
	Should we up and go with him
         C  C/B  A  G  F#m
	No wa -  - - - - - y

Chorus:
D                         Bm
We know exactly where you are and you're gone, my friend
D                               Bm
Don't know exactly where you're coming from
       Em         A
You've gone away
                             G       G/F#   F
2nd time ending ->  Have you gone astray

Verse 2:  play both part A and B respectively
	I saw your video on VH1 - looks like they spent a ton
	How does it feel to be the flavor for a spell
	And I remember when you used to say "Jesus is the way"
	I never thought I'd see your light begin to fade
