Where I can speak my mind
I ve been trying hard to find the people
That I won t leave behind
/
They say I got brains
But they ain t doin me no good
I wish they could
/ / (chords implied by BG vocals)
Each time things start to happen again
/ /
I think I got something good goin for myself but what goes wrong
Chorus:
/ /
Sometimes I feel very sad
/ /
Sometimes I feel very sad *
/ /
Sometimes I feel very sad *
Harpsichord and flute:
/ / / / / / / /
/ / / / /
I guess I just wasn t made for these times
Verse 2:
Every time I get the inspiration
To go change things around
No one wants to help me look for places
Where new things might be found
Where can I turn
When my fair-weather friends cop out
What s it all about
Each time things start to happen again
I think I got something good goin for myself and what goes wrong
(repeat chorus)
Theremin/winds break (arranged for four guitars):

Coda:
I guess I just wasn t made for these times [2x]
-5/ -5/
I guess I just wasn t made for these times
(I guess I just wasn t made for these times)
I guess I just wasn t made for these times [repeat; fade]
* according to Mark Linett (Endless Summer Quarterly, 12/94), the
layered vocal parts on these lines are:
(lead vocal): Sometimes I feel very sad
Ain t found the right thing I can put my heart and soul into
People I know don t want to be where I m at
O quando per e, un dia per e [Italian? Portuguese?]
