The TrashCanSinatras: Funny
DEmD I know she doesn't play the field EmDEmD But she likes to know the strength of the team EmD She says she doesn't like my style EmD But I loved her in my own fashion Em Kept her under wraps D Planted lots of verbal traps GEm But she won't be gone for long D Nothing good ever comes of a bad mood GEm And when she comes home
She'll kick up some dust GD And ask me what's wrong
CD She's a funny kind of girl CD Set sail in a ship in a bottle CD She's a funny kind of girl CD Do the Swiss fake it when the yodal AGD She's a funny kind of girl
DEmD I know her face so well Em Although the color of her eyes D Escapes me for the moment Em So Ill send out the spies D To hassle her at home Em And all the words to the wise D And the wise to the words I say GEm Though her embrace D Is like being short-changed
Or under-charged GEm I'll never revisit the scene of the crime GD Where I've seen you crying with glee
CD She's a funny kind of girl CD Give bad directions to a drunken sailor CD He ended up in the hills C And she ended up D In the wrong hands AGD She's a funny kind of girl
Solo: GDGDGEmDGEmGD
F#m I'll stick out my neck GD And I'll raise the heavy head of importance F#mGD And when the cap fits I'll wear it EmD But if I knew what made carpets fly Em I wouldn't be sitting here D Twiddling my thumbs in applause Em I'd threadbare my soul D And wheedle my way EmG Into other people's lives D And out of my own GDGDGDADGDGDGDAEmD
