It's been one week since you looked at me.
-7      -7   -7 -7 -7   7
Cocked your head to the side
6     6   6 -6 6
and said I'm an-gry.
-7    -7    -6   6     -6    6 6 -4 6
Five days since you laughed at me say-ing
-7   -7 -7 -7 -7
get that to-ge-ther,
7     6    6   -6 6
come back and see me.

-7     -7    -6   6 -6    6   6
Three days since the liv-ing room.
6   -7   -7 -7   -7 -7 7
I real-ized it's all my fault.
6     6    6   -6   6
But couldn-'t tell you.
-7 -7   -7 -6   6   -6 6   6
Ye-ster-day you'd for-gi-ven me.
-4   -4     -4 -7 -7 -7   -7
But it'll still be two days til
-7 7 6   -6 6
I say I'm sor-ry.

-8   6   6   6   6     6    6 -7
Hold it now and watch the hood-wink.
6 6 6    6    6    -7
As I make you stop, think.
6        6    6     -8   -8 7 -7 -7   6
You'll think you're look-ing at A-qua-man.

6   6 6   6   6   6 6
I sum-mon fish to the dish.
6    6    6   6   6   6   6   6
Al-though I like the Cha-let Swiss.
6   6 6    6 6
I like the su-shi
6       6 -8 -8   7      7 -7 -7 6
cause it's ne-ver touched a fry-ing pan.

6    6   6   6 6   6 6 6    -7
Hot like wa-sa-bi when I bust rhymes.
6    6   6   6   -7
Big like Le-Ann Rimes.
6    6    6   -8 -8 7 -7 6
Be-cause I'm all ab-out va-lue.

6      6     6      6 6   6   -7
Bert Kaemp-fert's got the mad hits.
6    6   6   6   -7     6   6   6 -8 -8
You try to match wits, you try to hold me.
7   7 -7    6
But I bust through.

6    6   6 6   6    6    6   6 6
Gon-na make a break and take a fake.
6     6   6 6     6   6   6    6
I'd like a stink-ing ach-ing shake.
6   6   6 6 6
I like va-ni-lla.
6     6 6   -8 -8 7   7 -7   6
It's the fin-est of all the fla-vours.

6   6   6   6   6
Got-ta see the show
6      6    6      6
cause then you'll know.
6    6 6 6   6 6   6   6
The ver-ti-go is gon-na grow.
6       6   6 6    6 6
Cause it's so dan-ger-ous.
6      -8   -8 7   7 -7 6
You'll have to sign a wai-ver.

-8   -8 -8 -8 -8 6 6 -6
How can I help it if I think
-6     -6 -7   -6   6    6
you're fun-ny when you're mad.
-6   -6 -6    -6 -6 -6     -6 -7 -6   6
Try-ing hard not to smile though I feel bad.

-8   -8 -8 -8 6   6    -6   -6 -7 -6 6 6
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a fun-er-al.
-6    -6 -6   -6   -6 -6 -6
Can't un-der-stand what I mean.
-6    -7   -6   6
Well you soon will.

-8 -8 -8 -8 -8 6 6 -6 -6 -7 -6 6 6
I have a ten-den-cy to wear my mind on my sleeve.
-6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -7 -6
I have a his-to-ry of ta-king off my shirt.

6     6    -7 -7    -6   6    -6   6 6
It's been one week since you looked at me.
-7     -7   -7 -7 -7 7
Threw your arms in the air
6     6    6     -6 6
and said you're cra-zy.
-7    -7   -6    6   -6   6 6
Five days since you tack-led me.
-4    -7   -7 -7 -7   -7   7   6   6   -6
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees.
6      6   -7    -7   -6    6 -6 6   6
It's been three days since the aft-er-noon.
6    -7   -7 -7   -7   -7 7
You real-ized it's not my fault.
6   6 6   6   -6 6
Not a mo-ment too soon.
-7 -7 -7   -6   6 -6 6   6
Yes-ter-day you'd for-gi-ven me.
-4   -4 -4 -7 -7
And now I sit back.
-7   -7 -7 7    6
And wait til you say
6      -6   6
you're sor-ry.
