NOTE: This TAB was changed on Sunday the 21st of October 2001 to include the  
low octave on the intro slide part... I realised this was missing after watching  
video of Jack playing it on WB.com

Looking at himself but wishing he was someone else  
Because the posters on the wall they don't look alike him at all  
 
So he ties it up he puts it in, he pulls it back and gives a grin  
Laughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at all  
 
 CHORUS type thing...  
 |---5------5----7------7-  
 |---5------5----7------7-  
 |.--6------6----8------8-  
 |.--7------7----9------9-  
 |---7------7----9------9-  
 |-5-5--5-5-5--7-7--7-7-7-  
 
 He gets his courage from the can,  
 It makes him feel like a man  
 Because he's loving all the ladies  
 But the ladies don't love him at all  
 
 ----------------------7-7-----7~-7-----7~-7--|

 ------9h11p9----9-9---9-9-----9~-9-----9~-9-.|repeat x 2  
 ---11--------11-------7-7-----7~-7-----7~-7--|then back to verse  
 -0------------------0-------9------7-7-------|  
 
 (repeat CHORUS type thing here)  
 Cause when he's not drunk  
 He's only stuck on himself  
 And then he has the nerve  
 To say he needs a decent girl  
 
(back to VERSE pattern)  
Looking at herself but wishing she was someone else  
Because the body of the dolly don't a-look like hers at all  
 
So she straps it on, she sucks it in, she throws it up but gives a grin  
Laughing at herself because she knows she ain't that at all  
 
  
 (CHORUS type thing here)  
 Caught up in the trends  
 You know the truth began to bend  
 And the next thing you man  
 There just ain't no truth left at all  
 
 Cause when the pretty girl walks  
 She walks so proud  
 And when the pretty girl laughs  
 Oh man, she laughs so loud  
 
 BRIDGE type thing  
 |--7~-7---5~-5---4~-4---2~-2--|repeat x2  
 |--9~-9---7~-7---6~-6---4~-4--|then intro  
 |.-9~-9---7~-7---6~-6---4~-4-.|part 2 x 2  
 |.-9~-9---7~-7---6~-6---4~-4-.|then back to  
 |--7~-7---5~-5---4~-4---2~-2--|verse for the  
 |-----------------------------|rest of the song  
 And if it ain't this then its that  
 As a matter of fact  
 She hasn't had a day to relax  
 Since she has lost her ability to think clearly  
 
 (do INTRO part 2 x 2)  
 
(back to VERSE pattern, but often silent and with the second  
part of the CHORUS being played here and there...)  
 
Well I'm an energetic apathetic version of another person  
Check out my outsides there ain't nothing in here  
 
Well I'm a superficial systematic music, television addict  
Check out my outsides there ain't nothing in  
Here comes another one, just like the other  
Looking at himself but wishing he was someone else  
Because the posters on the wall they don't a look alike a him  
He ties it up he puts it in, he pulls it back and gives a grin  
Laughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at all  
He knows he ain't loved at all
