"Be Nice To Me"
(Todd Rundgren)
Note from AWR: right-hand keyboard voicings are given where not obvious;
the 7-1-3-5 voicing of the major-7th chords is a trademark Toddism.
Intro:
all voiced with on top
Verse 1:
: ---
: ---
No catch, no strings
None of the usual things
: ---
I'm happy just to lay and look
: ---
Let's throw out the book
/9: --
Now we're off the hook
And please just be
Chorus 1:
Nice to me won't you
Be nice to me (nice to me)
Verse 2:
So tired, so sad
So sick of being had
By everyone who comes along
Would it be so wrong
If you played along
And please just be
Chorus 2/Bridge:
Nice to me
And would it bring you down
If I hang around and just
Be nice to me
It's been a long, long time
Since I felt so fine
And I know your love is fine
I know what's on your mind, but
Verse 3:
Don't laugh, don't cry
Don't make me wonder why
You're doing what you're doing now
Can't you see somehow
It's the wrong time now
So please just be
Coda:
Nice to me
Be nice to me
fade
It's been a long, long time since I felt so fine
