Biography:
Eric Carmen (former vocalist of The Raspberries) is a pop/rock musician and singer-songwriter well known for his first single "All By Myself" (released in 1976) and his 1987 comeback single "Hungry Eyes" (written by J. DeNicola and F. Previte for the iconic 'Dirty Dancing' soundtrack). The former, a smooth ballad, was penned by Carmen based on a classical theme by Sergei Rachmaninoff.

Great Expectations
C
Seems everyday I'm gettin' harder pressed
Dm
To find a reason to shave
G7 C
Watchin' the hours just slippin' away
No motivation to get out of bed
Dm
And carry on the charade
G7 E
Caught in a dream that's goin' astray
A7 Dm
Oh, all those great expectations
G
Seems they never work out, never work out
C
The way that I plan
A7 Dm
All those great expectations
G
Why they never work out, never work out
C
I can't understand
C
And just when I think that things are goin' right
Dm
I get a call from L.A.
G7 C
Sorry to say "we're changin' your song"
Dm
I try to reason but I can't get through they're gonna do it their way
G7 E
What can I say, they've never been wrong
A7 Dm
Oh, all those great expectations
G
Seems they never work out, never work out
C
The way that I plan
A7 Dm
All those great expectations
G
Why they never work out, never work out
C
I can't understand
E7 A7
Life is just a game of chance, I think somebody said so
F Am
Sometimes you get a hula hoop, sometimes you get an Edsel
C
Seems everyday I'm gettin' harder pressed
Dm
To find a reason to shave
G7 C
Watchin' the hours just slippin' away
No motivation to get out of bed
Dm
And carry on the charade
G7 E
Caught in a dream that's goin' astray
A7 Dm
Oh, all those great expectations
G
Seems they never work out, never work out
