Author/Artist: Paul Kelly
Title: Careless
Album: SO MUCH WATER, SO CLOSE TO HOME, 1989 / LIVE, MAY 1992
Transcribed by: Sam (S.Bartlett@student.anu.edu.au)

The same chord progression all the way through as far as I can tell.
(G - Bm - Am7 - C)
The Chorus is the same starting on the C
(play along with the CD and you'll see what I mean)
N.B.  You can use Bm7 instead of Bm, it sounds good too.

Intro

(G - Bm - Am7 - C) Twice

Verse
G                Bm
how many cabs in new york city,
Am7           C
how many angels on a pin
G                Bm
how many notes on a saxaphone,
Am7            C
how many tears in a bottle of gin
G                Bm
how many times did you call my name
Am7               C
knock at the door but you couldn't get in

G, Bm, Am7,   C,   G,  Bm,         Am7
              I know,  I've been,  Careless

I've been wrapped up in a shell
nothing could get through to me
Acted like I didn't know,
I had friends and good family
I saw worry in your eyes,
It didn't look like fear to me

I know, I've been, careless
I lost, my tenderness
I've been, careless,
I took, bad care of this

etc. etc.
