Nothing's Gonna Change My Clothes by They Might Be Giants
[Convention: each chord is two beats/half a measure. A dash indicates that
the chord is held for another two beats; two chords with a slash between
them are held for one beat/a quarter of a measure each.
This song is lowered two semitones. Capo up two frets to be in tune with
the original.]
D - - B7
Oh the people are so happy now, their heads are caving in
Em - - A
I'm glad they are a snowman with protective rubber skin
F - Bb -
But every little thing's a domino that falls on different dots
F - Bb A
and crashes into everything that tries to make it stop
And the mirror it reflects a tiny dancing skeleton
surrounded by a fleshy overcoat and swaddled in
a furry hat elastic mask a pair of shiny marble dice
some people call them snake eyes but to me they look like mice
D Bm G G#dim (G#dim 120101)
And nothing's smelling like a rose but I don't care if
D A Bm G
no one's coming up for air, 'cause I know
D Bm G G#dim
nothing's gonna change my clothes, ever anymore
D/Eb E/Eb (I usually just slide D up and down a fret at a time)
D/Eb E/Eb
E/F E/Eb
Oh the people are so happy now, their heads are caving in
I'm glad they are a snowman with protective rubber skin
But every little thing's a domino that falls on different dots
and crashes into everything that tries to make it stop
And nothing's smelling like a rose but I don't care if
no one's coming up for air, 'cause I know
nothing's gonna change my clothes, ever anymore
