When [F#m] I'm a man with a mission and two to three [B]
additions [E] and I'm giving you a long [D#] look
Every day, every day, [A] every day, every day I [E] write the book
[C#] Chapter [C#m] one, we've made a really big love Chapter [E] two, last week I fell in love with you
[C#m] You said you'd stand by me in the middle of chapter three with [F#m] you and I'll be your old trips and [F#] jettison

[C#m] With my pen and my electric [F#m] typewriter
[G#m] Even in a perfect world [C#] where everyone was equal
[F#m] I'd still own the film right, bitch, working [B] on a sequel
