Augie March – Just Passing Through

Capo 2 (Glenn Richards does like that capo 2)
Standard Tuning

INTRO
G--Em--G--Em--G--Em--C--Am-Em-

G Em At ten o'clock is when I rise from my grave
G Em And cast my eyes over the ideas that I couldn't save
G Em Become regret and break upon me now wave after wave
C Am Em Bid me remember what I done
G Em A strange appeal is in the magazine zodiac
G Em What inspiration are the women of the dog track
G Em Now there's a wheel and there's a well and there's a big rack
C Am Em The perfumed killers from the north
C Am Em Collect each Saturday to brood and sally forth
C Em I don't know enough to know not to show it
C Em Or tell it like I know more
C Em I'm sorry, baby, but your roving poet's
C Am Em Just a bank balance troubadour
C Am Em Who can't sing the song anymore
C----Em----C----Em----
G Em At ten o'clock is when you open up your apple eyes
G Em And drink a cup into the one of earth the other skies
G Em And out your mouth a tiny burst of tiny baby cries
C Am Em Oh where, oh where, oh where did you get into to?
G Em A strange appeal unto a pocket where a body lay
G Em I saw a dream of such a couple only yesterday
G Em When the one did leave the other went to war Enola Gay
C Am Em She had a halo, was a heroine
C Am Em She had a halo, was a heroine
C Em Well, I know I'm not loathe to show it
C Em I smile like a bandsaw
C Em I'm sorry, darling, but your roving poet's
C Am Em Just a footloose man-whore
C Am Em Who can't talk the talk anymore
C Em We're just passing through
C Em Just passing through
G Em At ten o'clock is when I rise from my grave
G Em And cast my eyes over the ideas that I couldn't save
G Em Become regret and break upon me now wave after wave
C Am Em Bid me remember what I done
G Em When time doesn't tear you pay a fee to make it rip
G Em The ditch witch, the back hoe, the bobcat, the tip
G Em Soil from the hillock spilling over on that solemn lip
C Am Em It covers up the cedar mirror
C Am Em Do you ever see your weakness any clearer?
C Em We were winding up the road to the site
C Em With the windows down and the cigarettes alight
C Em Singing some rubbish about, "My soul's alright"
C Am Em I didn't know what I could do
[repeat x2]
C Am EmIt's just you and I, some other guy, forever passing through.
C Em We're just passing through
(Like a gall stone)
C Em Just passing through
(Like a rat through a snake)
C Em Just passing through
(Little rubbish through a rake)
C Em Just passing through
D--C--[Incomprehensible]
C--Em-- [repeat as necessary]
