[Verse]
Am G
Last time she jumped out the window, well, she only turned and smiled
Am G
You might think she would say something, but you'd have to wait a while
[Bridge]
Am
Well the lady don't mind
G
No, no, no, the lady don't mind
Am
She just turns her head and disappears,
G
I kinda like that style
[Verse]
Am G
Little boat that floats on a river, it's drifting through a haze
Am G
She floats by whenever she wants to, well, there she goes again
[Bridge]
Am
Well, it's no trouble at all
G
No, no, no trouble at all
Am
Well, what she doesIs all right with me,
G [ G G# ]
And I kinda like that style
[Chorus]
Am
Come on, come on, I go up and down
G
I like this curious feeling
Am
I know, I see, it's like make believe
G
Cover your ears so you can hear what I'm saying
Am G
I'm not lost but I don't know where I am, I got a question
Am
All right, all right, this is what we like
G
Who knows, who knows, what I'm thinking
[Interlude]

[Verse]
Am
She says love is not what she's after,
G
And everybody knows
Am
Each time she looks in the mirror,
G
She lets her feelings show
[Bridge]
Am
Well the lady don't mind
G
No, no, no, the lady don't mind
Am
Well, what she says is all right by me,
G [ G G# ]
And I kinda like that style
[Chorus]
Am
Uh-oh, uh-oh, here we go again
G
I don't know, I don't know what I'm sayin'
Am
Hey man, hey man, I sure don't feel the same
G
She likes to say what she's feeling
Am G
Hey, did I get a big surprise, I know you think so
Am
Come on, come on, she says anything
G
Who knows, who knows, what she's thinking
[Outro]

Uh-oh, uh-oh
