[Verse 1]
[D]Everything
went from bad to worse,
[G]money never changed a thing
[D]Death kept following, dragging us down,
at [G]least I heard a puppet sing
Now some[A]body's got
to show [D]their hand,
time is [G]an enemy
I [D]know you're long gone,
[G]guess it must be up [D]to me
[G]If I'd have tho[D]ught about it,
I never would have done it.
I [G]guess I would have let it slide.
If I'd have [D]paid attention
to what others were thinking,
the [G]heart inside me would have died.
But I was [A]just too stubborn
to ever [D]be governed
by enforced [G]insanity.
[D]Someone had a reach for the rising stars
I [G]guess it must be up to [D]me
[G]Now the uni[D]on scent was pulling out
The [G]orchids are in bloom
I've [D]only got me one good shot left
And it [G]smells of stale perfume
In [A]14 months I've [D]only smiled once
and I didn't do [G]it consciously
Some[D]body's got to find a trail,
I [G]guess it must be up [D]to me[G]
It [D]was like a revelation
when you be[G]trayed me with your touch
I [D]just about convinced myself
that noth[G]ing had changed that much
The [A]old runner in the [D]iron mask,
he's left me the master [G]key
[D]Somebody had to unlock your heart,
he [G]said it was up [D]to me
[G]Well, I onc[D]e used to only disappear
Down [G]in to the officer's club
I [D]would have followed you in the door
But I [G]didn't have a ticket stuck
So I [A]waited all night till the [D]break of day
Hoping one of us could get free
[G]When the daw[D]n came over the river bridge,
I [G]knew it was up [D]to me
[G]And the onl[D]y decent thing I did
when I [G]worked as a postal clerk
Was to [D]haul your picture down off the wall
near the [G]cage where I used to work
Was [A]I a fool enough
[D]to protect your real [G]identity?
[D]You're not more than a burnout, my friend
I [G]thought it might be up [D]to me
[G]I met[D] somebody face to face
I [G]had to remove my hat
She's [D]everything I need in love
But I [G]can't be swayed by that
It [A]frightens me, the aw[D]ful truth
Of how sweet love [G]can be
But [D]she ain't gonna make me move
I [G]guess it must be up to [D]me[G]
And I [D]heard the sermon on the mound
And I [G]knew it was too complex
It [D]didn't amount to anything more
than what the [G]broken glass reflects
When you [A]bite off more
than you [D]can chew,
you've got to pay the
[G]penalty
[D]Somebody's got to tell the tale,
I [G]guess it must be up [D]to me[G][D][G][D]
I had [G]to look the other way
Well, I [A]just can't rest without [D]you,
love I need your company
[G]But [D]you ain't even gonna cross the line
I [G]guess he must be up to [D]it[G]
There's [D]a note left in the bottle
You can [G]give it to Estelle
[D]She's the one you've been wondering
about
But there's [G]really nothing much to tell
We [A]both heard voices for [D]a while
Now the rest is [G]history
[D]Somebody's got to cry some tears,
I [G]guess it must be up [D]to me[G]
So [D]go on boys and play your hands,
[G]life is a pantomime
The [D]ringleaders from the county see,
say you [G]don't have all that much time
And the [A]girl with me behind [D]the shades,
she ain't my [G]property
One [D]of us got to hit the road,
[G]I guess it must be up [D]to you[G]
If [D]we never meet again,
[G]baby remember me
And my [D]long guitar played sweet for you,
that [G]old time melody
And the [A]harmonica round [D]my neck,
I blew it for you [G]free
No [D]one else could play that tune,
you [G]know it was up [D]to me[G][D][G][D]
You
