The chords to this song are straightforward - chord change every two bars
and there's only three chords in it. The keyboards on the recording play
the melody line throughout (at least when you can hear it in the quiet
bits) and you can mimic this on the guitar by hammering a sus4 on each of the
chords. The biggest problem in playing this song is that it varies in
speed as it meanders through Jarvis' moods. Lyrics are from the New Pulp Home
intro DO DOsus4 DO
She came from Greece she had a thirst for knowledge
She studies sculpture at St. Martins College
SOLThat´s where I caught her eye
She told me that her dad was loaded
I said "In that case I´ll have a rum and coca-cola"
SOLShe said "fine" and in a thirty seconds time she said
FA
"I want to live like common people
I want to do whatever common people do
I want to sleep with common people
SOLI want to sleep with common people like you"
Well what else could I do?, I said "I´ll see what I can do"
I took her to a supermarket
SOLI don´t know why but I had to start it somewhere - so it started there
DOI said "Pretend you´ve got no money"
She just laughed and said "Oh, you´re so funny"
SOLI said "Yeah, well I can´t see someone else smiling in here
FA
Are you sure you want to live like common people
DOYou want to see whatever common people see
You want to sleep with common people
SOLYou want to sleep with common people like me
DOBut she didn´t understand, she just smiled and held my hand
DO
Rent a flat above your shop, cut you hair and get a job
Smoke some fags and play some pool, prentend you never went to school
DOBut still you´ll never get it right, ´cos when you´re laid in bed at night
SOLwatching roaches climb the wall, if you called your dad he could stop it all
FA
You´ll never live like common people
You´ll never do whatever common people do
You´ll never fail like common people
SOLYou´ll never watch your life slide out of view
And dance and drink and screw because there´s nothing else to do
Sing along with the common people,
DOSing along and it might just get you thru´
Laugh along with the common people
Laugh along even though they are laughing at you
And the stupid things that you do
DOBecause you think that poor is cool
DO
Like a dog lying in a corner they will bite you and never warn you
look out, they´ll tear you insides out
DO´Cos everybody hates a tourist especially one who thinks that it´s all
SOLSuch a laugh
and the chip stains and grease will come out in the bath
you will never understand how it feels to live your life
DOWith no meaning or control and with nowhere left to go
SOLYou are amazed that they exist and they burn so bright
Whilst you can only wonder why
Rent a flat above your shop, cut you hair and get a job
SOLSmoke some fags and play some pool, prentend you never went to school
DOBut still you´ll never get it right, ´cos when you´re laid in bed at night
watching roaches climb the wall, if you called your dad he could stop it all
You´ll never live like common people
DOYou´ll never do whatever common people do
You´ll never fail like common people
You´ll never watch your life slide out of view
DOAnd dance and drink and screw because there´s nothing else to do
I want to live with common people like you
I want to live with common people like you
