Anyway, that goes on for a while. Then, we get into the meat
of Special Blown It (as it's known to it's friends), which is:
C F C
I've blown it in every single way,
F G G#
screwed every single chance that came
G C A# G#
You're a super star in waiting for the silver screen
D# F
Then the pressure came - swept away in a tidal wave
C
Could be all of you, still awake at noon
D# C G#
Blew my chances in a tragic flurry, sweeping apathy
G A# G#
Buy all my food from the BP store when the night kicks in
C F C
I'm turning my back on everyone
F G G#
I've blown everything I've ever done
C A#
I've fucked it up, shot my load
g# g f
Spewed onto the motorway shoulder
g# g
I could have been somebody special
**THIS NEXT LUMP IS PLAYED ALONG WITH THE MAIN INTRO**
I'm not such a tragic waste of space
I could bring happiness to people
Just one more greatest hits tour for the devotees
The same old faces came
They love their summer spectaculars
By the grace of God could be up by noon
And not a tragic waster but I can't stay focused for my apathy
They could have bought me a brand new car and a house in France
I've really blown it now
Blew it all away on a whim
Fucked it up, shot my load
Spewed onto the motorway shoulder
I could have been somebody special
C F C
Sat on my own for far too long
F G G#
Things could have been so different now
G C A# G#
Life looks so confusing through my window bay
D# F
Just to see a face, I'm really pleased when the gas man comes
C
Could be all of you, still awake at noon
D# C F
Blew my chances in a tragic flurry of apathy
D# A# G#
all my food from the BP store when the night kicks in
D# C
I've really blown it now
G# A#. B.
Blew it all awayay
C A#
I've fucked it up, shot my load
g# g f
Spewed onto the motorway shoulder
g# g
I could have been somebody special
