Verse 1

[G] [C] [G]

All around somebody else's pad

[C] [G]

You stumble as you chase the latest fad

[C]

If you're confused with all the things you find

[D7] [G]

Just wait until the crowd makes up your mind

Chorus

[C] [G]

Coming back repeating every word

[C] [G]

Repeating all the things you overheard

[C] [G]

The bandwagons rumble past I sit here on the curb

[C] [D7] [G]

And like an echo, you are like unto a mockingbird

Verse 2

[G] [C] [G]

As long as you can sing their style of song

[C] [G]

You won't be lonely you can tag along

[C]

Pasted on your face a sickly grin

[D7] [G]

Hoping that someone will say you're in

Verse 3

[G] [C] [G]

Dark eyes shifting round take in a lot

[C] [G]

Noting who is here and then who's not

[C]

Careful that you keep your standing clean

[D7] [G]

Away from those with whom you can't be seen

Chorus

[C] [G]

Coming back repeating every word

[C] [G]

Repeating all the things you overheard

[C] [G]

The bandwagons rumble past I sit here on the curb

[C] [D7] [G]

And like an echo, you are like unto a mockingbird

Verse 4

[G] [C] [G]

Here lately you don't speak or even look

[C] [G]

Because my name's not written in their book

[C]

But if they turn my different ways to see

[D7] [G]

You'd be the first to proudly stand by me

Chorus

[C] [G]

Coming back repeating every word

[C] [G]

Repeating all the things you overheard

[C] [G]

The bandwagons rumble past I sit here on the curb

[C] [D7] [G]

And like an echo, you are like unto a mockingbird
