Biography:
Josh Joplin Group was a Georgia-based pop music band led by singer-songwriter Josh Joplin. Joplin, a self-proclaimed "dork" who nonetheless dropped out of school in tenth grade to become a folk singer like his hero Phil Ochs, brought the group its trademark combination of introspective lyrics, folk-rock melodies, and lead vocals that, to many, sound identical to those of R.E.M. singer Michael Stipe (to the point that one Joplin song, "Happy at Last," begins, "I sound like Michael Stipe and I dream like Carl Jung").

[Intro]
G F C F G F C D G
[Verse 1]
Asus2 Bm C
Some people wish they could be like Moses
G Asus2 Bm C
And get their information from burning bushes
G D C
Well, I tried and the neighbours complained
G
I set their lawns aflame
[Chorus]
D F G
I'm up and down I'm going in circles
G F C G
I'm anxious to know what I mean

The days change like old opinions

And opinions change everything

I am my trampoline
[Verse 2]

I went abroad to break my concentration

But instead I broke my glasses, lost my voice in translation

I never spoke a word

I am my trampoline

I keep you in the backyard of my
D G D G
Dreams to remind me of days gone by

Thank you for taking me by surprise
I've never been so high
