The story behind the song

This song comes from Alex Turner's acoustic soundtrack for the film Submarine, which marked his solo debut. Known for his evocative lyricism, whether grounded in realism or playful surrealism, Turner crafts a mood that feels introspective and perhaps a little lost. The title itself, "Stuck On The Puzzle," hints at a feeling of being caught in a moment of contemplation or confusion. Playing this song, you might channel that sense of quiet reflection, like working through a thought that just won't quite resolve.

But last night I look up into the dark half of the blue, and they've gone backwards

[Pre-Chorus]

A B E G#

Something in your magnetism must have pissed them off

Forcing them to get an early night

A B E G# A

I have been searching from the bottom to the top for such a sight

As the one I caught when I saw your

Any man who wasn't led away into the other room stood pretending

B A

But oh no,

G#m F#m E B F#m

I was just stuck on the puzzle
