[Original version by Richard James Barnden (r.j.barnden@cant.ac.uk) ]
From: Seb Perry
Subject: LONGPIGS - "LOST MYSELF"
Lost Myself
by Longpigs
from The Sun Is Often Out
E G# C#m A
She sold herself on the one love
E G# C#m A
The one that most of us dream about
E G# Bm A
And - Just for the occasion day after day
E G# C#m A
Relieves herself when it don't come
(pre-chourus)
G#m E
I have always found it
G#m E
Easier to dream about it
G#m A
Careful of the stitches
F#5 A
Insists that there is more than this
(Chourus)
E G# C#m A
But I've lost myself I cannot speak
E G# C#m A
To live by myself I'm far to weak
E G# C#m A
I have lost myself I cannot speak
E G# C#m A
To live by myself I'm far to weak
As bold as hell on the one love
The one that all of us scream about
And - rest all the persuaders day after day
Forgives herself when it don't come
(pre-chorus)
(chorus)
Sold again on the one love
The one that all of them write about
And - Just for the occasion day after day
Hits herself when it won't run
(pre-chourus)
(chorus)
E G# C#m A (*2)

| i listen to this song mostly in the car, when it's dark. i don't know why.. to me, it is beautifully emotional. i wouldn't say sad, as such. the music makes it really. stunning. dunno who the singer is but he's fucking brilliant too. | |

| Notice how part of the song is talking about her ("she") and the other part is talking about himself ("i"). | |

| This is one of those little brilliant, lost songs like Junkster "The Only One" that few will actually ever hear. I pity the fools. | |
