Savage Garden - Santa Monica
Tabbed by: Reid Tissing (reid_tissing@hotmail.com)
Quite simple song really:
Verse 1:
AA/G#
In Santa Monica in the winter time
A/F#EA
The lazy streets so undemanding
A/G#A/F#E
I walk into the crowd
AA/G#A/F#DA
In Santa Monica you get your coffee from the coolest places on the promenade
A/G#A/F#E
Where people dress just so
C#m7DC#m7
Beauty so unavoidable, everywhere you turn it's there
D
I sit and wonder what am I doing here?
Chorus:
AA/G#
But on the telephone line I am anyone
DE
I am anything I want to be
F#mC#m7
I could be a supermodel or Norman Mailer
DE/F
And you wouldn't know the difference or would you?
2nd verse:
AA/G#A/F#A
In Santa Monica all the people got modern names like Jake or Mandy
A/G#A/FE
And modern bodies too
AA/G#A/F#DA
In Santa Monica on the boulevard you'll have to dodge those inline skaters
A/G#A/F#E
Or they'll knock you down
C#m7D
I never felt so lonely, never felt so out of place
C#m7D
I never wanted something more than this
Chorus:
AA/G#
But on the telephone line I am anyone
DE
I am anything I want to be
F#mC#m7
I could be a supermodel or Norman Mailer
DE
And you wouldn't know the difference
Chorus 2:
AA/G#
On the telephone line I am any height
DE
I am any age I want to be
F#mC#m7
I could be a capped crusader or space invader
DE/F#
And you wouldn't know the difference or would you?
…or would you… (repeat chorus 1 and 2)
