[Dm] [C] [Dm] [Gm]
[B] [G#m]
[B] [G#m] [E] [B]
The goatee that occurs [E] for this town [B] [F#] Roll in my mouth
[B] Only [E] I don't know how [G#m] They [F#] got out, dear
[B] [G#m] Turned [B] me back [E] into the [B] pet I [D#m] was when we [B] met
I was happier [B] then with no [F#] mindset
[B] And [F#] if you [B] took to me [E] like [B] a girl takes [F#] to the wind
Well I'd have [B] jumped from my [E] trees
And [B] I'd [E] have danced [B] like a king of the ice
[E] So the rest [B] of our lives [F#] would have [B] fared well
[G#m] New [B] Zealand, when you notice [E] the [B] stripes
The dirt in your fries
Hope [E] it's right when you [G#m] die
Old and [F#] bony
[B] [G#m] Dawn [B] breaks like a [E] bull to the hall
[B] Never should have called
Put my head [G#m] to the wall and [B] moaned
And [F#] if you [B] took to me [E] like a [G#m] girl [F#] takes to the wind
Well I'd have [B] jumped from [E] my trees
And I'd [B] have danced [E] like a queen [B] of the ice
[E] So the [B] rest of our [F#] lives would have fared well
[B] [E] [B]
[E]
[B] [G#m] [F#] [B]
[G#m] Godspeed [B] on the [E] bakers at dawn
[B] May they [F#] all cut their [B] thumbs
I'm [E] bleeding to their [G#m] bones till they melt [F#]
away
[B] [F#] I'm looking [B] in on the good life
[E] I might [B] be doomed never to find
[F#] Without a [B] trust or flaming fields
[B] Am I too dumb [F#] to refine?
And if you [B] took to me [E] like [B] a girl
[E] I'd have danced [B] like a king of the ice
[E] So the rest [B] of our lives [F#] would have fared [B] well
[E] [B] [E] [F#]

[A] [C]
[G] [C] [F] [Em] [C]
[G] [Am] And [G] I hope you [Am] are good at [C] stuff and things
That sounds more [G] like it
The other day on my Facebook [C] I said to [G] people
Whoever likes this status
[Am] I [F] will pick 200 [C] random people out [G] of those like-ers
And [Am] do a shoutout to [G] them
So without [C] further ado, here are the shoutouts
Make sure [Bm] you like my [Am] Facebook and follow me on [C] Twitter
Because I'll be doing more things like [F] this every week
[C] And who knows what could [G] happen next week
Who fricking [C] knows
[F] Also, can you see [G] the pigeon just loving life on my [Am] window
Every [C] morning without fail he is [F] there
And every [C] evening
So [G] we've named him Nigel, Long [C] Neck Nigel
[F] That is [Am] everything
[G] Too loo
And if you took [C] to me [F] like [C] a [G] girl
Thanks to me I'd have jumped [C] and [F] run
I'd have taken to you [C] like a girl
And [C] I [C] hope [G]
you are good [Em] [Am] [F]
[C] [G] [C] [F] [G] at stuff [Am] [F] and things
[C] That sounds more like it
The other day [G] on my Facebook I said to people
Whoever likes this status
And do a shoutout to them
So [C] without [F] further ado, here are the shoutouts
Make sure you like my Facebook [G] and follow me on Twitter
And if you took [C] to me [F] [C] like a [G] girl
Thanks to me I'd have [C] jumped and run
[F] And [C] trees and guys who get down
[C] Suck the king in the eye
[C] So the rest [G] of our lives we'll forget it
[F] [C] [G] [C] [F] [C] [F]
[C] [G] [C] [Am] [G] [C]
