High Fidelity
(Elvis Costello from the album "Get Happy!" - Words and Music

Not to sure of the chords
yet in the intro but the base notes go something like this:
A    Ab    G
F#

F               E
Some things you never get used to
Am
D7             G         C G
Even though you're feeling like another man
Bm

There's nothing that he can do for you
Dm                 E7
To shut me
away as you walk through
Am                       D7
Lovers laughing in
their amateur hour
Am                   D7
Holding hands in the corridors
of power
Am              D             E          E7
Even though I'm with
somebody else right now

Even though the
signal's indistinct
Dm                       E7
And you worry what silly
people think
Am                     D
Who just can't wait to feel so frozen
out
Am                   D
I bet he thinks that he was chosen out
Am
D               E     E7
of millions, I suppose he'll never know
about
