Version 1
[Intro]
C F x8
[Verse 1]
C F C F C F C F
Well I get down so I can get up
C F C F C F C F
And I break down so I can break up
C F C
I was thinking about thinking about thinking
F C F C F
And went and made my head swim
C F C F C
And if I walked with you awhile you would make it worth my while
F C F
And proceeded to tear me limb from limb
[Chorus 1]
F
The bet was made I kneeled and prayed
G Am
And went off like a shotgun
F
You said I reminded you of a ghost
G Am
But how do you know I’m not one
F G Am
You told me if I kissed you it’d be easier in the long run
D G
You said you’d give me a reason but you know I've already got one
[Verse 2]
C F C F C F C F
I slow down so I can speed up (yes he does, yes he does, oh he does)
C F C F C F C F
And I wind down so I can wind up (yes he does, yes he does, oh he does)
C F C
I was thinking about thinking about thinking
F C F C F
But it only made my brain freeze
C F C F C
And if I walked with you awhile you would make it worth my while
F C F
How did you know I love tricks like these
[Chorus 2]
F
The bet was made I kneeled and prayed
G Am
And went off like a shotgun
F
You said I reminded you of a ghost
G Am
But how do you know I’m not one
F G Am
You told me if I kissed you it would be easier in the long run
D G
You said you’d give me a reason but you know I’ve already got one
[Solo]
C F x8
[Chorus 3]
F G Am
And if I could paint you a picture it’d be nothing less than tragic
F G Am
I would trade a lifetime for a moment now with magic
F G Am
I would kick the bucket if it didn’t sound so drastic
D G
But my feet are made of tombstones and my dreams are made of plastic
F
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
G Am
I was way out of tune
F
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
G Am
Just a joke, a cartoon
F
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
G Am
Oh I did not swoon
F
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
G C
For six days in June
F
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
G Am
I was getting down low
F
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
G Am
Baby blow by blow
F
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
G Am
A trainwreck honeymoon
F
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
G C
For six days in June
F G Am
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
F G Am
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
F G Am
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
F G C
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
