Lyrics
I told (A)Althea I was (E)feelin' (A)lost,
(Bm)lackin' in (A)some (E)direction.
(Bm)Althea told (A)me, (E)upon (A)scrutiny, that my (Bm)back might (A)need protection.
I told Althea that (C#m)treachery
(D)was tearin' me limb from (A)limb.
(C#m)Althea told me,
(E)"Now, cool down, boy.
(Bm)Settle back;
(A)easy, Jim."
(Bm)I told (A)Althea I was (E)feelin' (A)lost,

(D)There are things you (G)can replace
(E)and others you cannot.
(D)The time has come to (G)weigh those things.
(E)This space is getting hot.
(D)You know, this (A)space is getting hot.
