Real Late Starter Nerina Pallot
A great song, by a really under-rated artist.
Real Late Starter ? Nerina Pallot
[Bm]I woke up late today
[E]Actually I do that everyday
[Am]Got no place to be seen
I?m not part of a scene
[G]I?m a genius loser
Keeping counsel with my own opinion[Bm]
President of the state that[E] I?m in
Should I just s[Am]tay in bed?
Should I live in my head?
Oh Go[G]d so many questions to ask
Oh you could call me lazy
I think of it as taking my time
?Cos I don?t want to do what I don?t want to do
I?m the queen refusenik
(CHORUS)
But - oh [Bm]my God ? if I was somebody I?d be doing it all just fine[E]
But I?m a real [C]late starter[G]
So I?m makin[D]g up for lost time[A]
[Bm]Oh my God ? if I was somebody you?d be kissing my arse right now[E]
But I?m so p[C]olite ? I[G] do it all of the t[D]ime[A]
I missed my calling[C] in life[G]
[Bm]Oh well.
Day by day I wonder
If I will be torn asunder
By these things that I know that nobody else knows
Or maybe it?s the drinking
I guess we should consult a Bible
Everybody needs a sign - or
Bless the birds and the bees
The flowers and trees
And blessed be the slacker
(CHORUS)
But - oh my God ? if I was somebody I?d be doing it all just fine
But I?m a real late starter
So I?m making up for lost time
Oh my God ? if I was somebody you?d be kissing my arse right now
But I?m so polite ? I do this all of the time
I missed my calling in life
And you[E] must be having a laugh[G]
O[E]h God ? you?re having a laugh[G]
[D]No point in worryi[Am]ng if my day´s [G]a disaster
[D]Inside my little[Am] head I?m happy ever[G] after
Yes I am[F#]
(CHORUS)
Oh my God ? if I was somebody I?d be doing it all just fine
But I?m a real late starter
So I?m making up for lost time
Oh my God ? if I was somebody you?d be kissing my arse right now
But I?m so polite
I missed my calling in life
(CHORUS)
Oh my God ? if I was somebody I?d be doing it all just fine
But I?m a real late starter
So I?m making up for lost time
Oh my God ? if I was somebody you?d be kissing my arse right now
But I?m so polite ? I do this all of the time
I missed my calling in life
Oooh ? what of my life?
Yeah well.
