I don't know what chord(s) comprise the intro. It could be just notes being played, although deep down inside I *know* there are chords behind them. F# comes to mind (it's also the high note in the background). Same with the chord over "sympathetic friend" down there...
INTRO: N.C.
The case is pulled from under the bed
She made a call to a sympathetic friend and made arrangements
The door was closed, there was a note
I couldn't be bothered
Maybe I'll choke no more engagements
With "where have you been"'s and faraway frowns
Trying to be good by not being round
REFRAIN 1:
So here in the bar the piano man's found
Another nail for my heart
And here in the bar the piano man's found
Another nail for my heart
AD LIB: B F#/A# F#m E G# A A#dim
That's stupid old bug that kills only love
I want to be good, is that not enough?
REFRAIN 2:
So play me the song that makes it so tough
Another nail for my heart
Then play me the song that makes it so tough
Another nail for my heart
I had excuses, those little boy lies
That she computed by watching my eyes and told me firmly
