I Am So Ordinary Chords & Lyrics by Paula Cole
I Am So Ordinary
guitar chords lyrics
Intro
E-F#-G#m-A
C#m B
I nearly died I suicided softly
C#m
I saw her shadow through the cafe window
G#m F# E
I watched you lean across the table
G#m F# E F#
I watched you whisper in her ear
Chorus
B G#m F#
And she is your holy Mary
E C#m
And I am so ordinary
D#m E
And you can use me if you want to
C#m F#
I know you need me just like an old soft shoe
C#m B
She looks like me but a bit prettier
C#m
She's a skater and a ballet dancer
G#m F# E
I saw her on your motorcycle
G#m F# E F#
In the seat I thought was meant for me
Chorus
B G#m F#
And she is your holy Mary
E C#m
And I am so ordinary
D#m E
And you can use me if you want to
C#m F#
I know you need me just like an old soft shoe
B G#m F# E
And I am so or�dinary
C#m B
And when your mother came to Boston you disappeared
C#m
And then I saw you three together
G#m F# E
I guess she makes the best impression
G#m F# E F#
With her charming femininity
Chorus
B G#m F#
And she is your holy Mary
E C#m
And I am so ordinary
D#m E
And you can use me if you want to
C#m F#
I know you need me just like an old soft shoe
B G#m F# E
And I am so or�dinary
B G#m F#
And I am so ordinary
Bridge
E F# G#m F#
Oh but I am the one you will call when alone
E F# G#m A
And I am the one who will give when she's gone
G#m-F#-E
And so I give
E-C#m
So I give
C#m B
I tell myself that love is truly giving
C#m
Somehow I justify this
G#m F# E
Hoping you will understand me
G#m F# E F#
Hoping you will love me back
Last Chorus
B G#m F#
And she is your holy Mary
E B
And I am so ordinary
G#m F#
And she is your Queen Cleopatra
E B
And I'm just your morning after
G#m F#
And she is your Star Spangled Banner
E
And I am just Frere Jacques�
E C#m
And you can lose me if you�want to
Coda
B G#m F# E
And I am so or�dinary
