Big Bad World One Tab par Jonathan Coulton

Intro |E   Amaj7|E   Amaj7|

Verse 1
E                Em           
All alone by the table of food
      D        G           D
in my wrinkled suit and my borrowed tie
E                Em              
Only thinking of something to say
       D      G         D
in the moment after the girl goes by
G         G/F            Em7            Edim           
 Everyone else is having fun or else pretending to
G       G/F         Em7  Edim           
 I eat another crudite

Chorus
Cadd9    G/B
 I quit, I'm done
 Asus4                          D
'cause I don't think it's gonna turn out OK
     Cadd9            G/B
It's no fair and it's no fun
   Asus4                 D
If every time it's gonna end the same way:
Dbdim      Cm             G
 Me: zero, Big bad world: one

Verse 2

E                   Em             
At the office we're all having cake
            D         G          D
'cause it's someone's birthday I don't know who
E                    Em               
Get my plate and I'm scanning the room
        D    G             D
and the only seat is right next to you
G          G/F           Em7                Edim           
 I get the nod, the tiny smile that doesn't come with teeth
G          G/F              Em7   Edim           
 Maybe you don't know who I am

Chorus
Cadd9    G/B
 I quit, I'm done
  Asus4                          D
'cause I don't think it's gonna turn out OK
     Cadd9            G/B
It's no fair and it's no fun
   Asus4                 D
If every time it's gonna end the same way:
Dbdim      Cm             G
 Me: zero, Big bad world: one

Bridge
           C             G
Staying in-side lying in bed
         Am                   Em
Noticing something that's not there
          C                G
Follow my heart, follow my head
            Bb            C(alt)                E  
I'll follow anything that might get me somewhere

Verse 3

E                        Em               
Catch her eye when she's pouring my coffee
    D         G           D
and search my head for an opening line
E                Em              
But I see by the look on her face
     D       G               D
if I keep my mouth shut I'll save some time
G            G/F             Em7           Edim           
 What if the best that I can be just isn't good enough?
G         G/F           Em7   Edim           
 Isn't it better not to know?

Chorus
Cadd9    G/B
 I quit, I'm done
  Asus4                          D
'cause I don't think it's gonna turn out OK
     Cadd9            G/B
It's no fair and it's no fun
   Asus4                 D
If every time it's gonna end the same way:
Dbdim      Cm             
 Me: zero, Big bad world: one
