Boredom Chords & Lyrics - The Lovin' Spoonful

[CHORUS]

[C]Boredom[F] , hangin' by my[D7]self[G7] in a bleak m[C]otel
Ove[Dm7]rnight in[G7] a small[C] town
Boredom,[F] my mind's countin'[D7] time,[G7] trucks go rollin'[C] by
Past the[Dm7] pumps and[G7] highway[C] sign [C7]

[VERSE 1]

[F]Never was a place that felt less like[C] home
[D7]Never would a come here if I'd only[G7] known
That it's a[C] one-channel town and I'm all alone
I[G7] can't just sit 'n' watch my telephone
Cause[C] no one knows my number and it can't be found
And there's[G7] no good people just kickin' around
So[Am] here we are together,[D7] machines and me
I[G7] feel about as local as a fish in a tree

[CHORUS]

And this[C] Boredom[F] , my mind's countin[D7]' time[G7] , trucks go rollin[C]' by
Past the[Dm7] pumps and[G7] highway[C] sign [C7]

[VERSE 2]

And[F] in this town all the other sounds have[C] ceased
And the[D7] Late Late Show died long ago
With a[G7] few words from a priest

[INSTRUMENTAL]

[C]Boredom[F] , hangin' by my[D7]self[G7] in a bleak m[C]otel
