Lloyd Cole (To The Lions by LC)

Capo on the 2nd fret on this one.  With the G and C/G changes in the verses you
have to listen to the record.  I've tired as best I could, but w/o a guitar in
my hands its hard to visualize

G       C/G  G         C/G G C/G
Lost my girl on Monday

G          C/G  G        C/G G C/G
Lookin for some sympathy

G          C/G        Em
I went to church directly

                 C
The Lord was not there for me


(same as 1st verse)
Didn't go to work on Tuesday
Got to drinking around noon
I lost my heart to a mean bartender
She knocked me off my stool

Chorus

C       D
Now the worlds spinnin round

    Em
Too fast and wrong

          Am                C
Won't you let me off on the corner

Am (not exactly sure about chrd, but it works for me)
You know a man can take to sittin all he

                          G      C/G  G   C/G G C/G
needs is a little push in that direction


(same as first verse)
I lost my job on Friday
Said I lacked the discipline
I went to church directly
Peter said he's not in

(same as first verse)
I hit the bar on Sunday
Looking for some discipline
I sold my soul to the mean bartender
She said I'm born again

Chorus again, but instead of "that direction" substitute

C
you time it just right
                                       G ( and so on with the C/G and G)
you could send me to the loins tonight
