I went running around asking everybody I know
D G D Em
I already asked my mother and the woman who lives next door
D G D Em
I've been running around asking for so long
D G D Em
I wanted to ask my grandmother, but I couldn't get past the weather
D G D Em
But it was good to sit together, on her couch of seafoam green
D G D Em
All her secrets safe without me
D G D Em
And I called up a friend who lives very far away
D G D Em
I took up all her time in asking, but she didn't know what to say
D G D Em
I said I wouldn't keep her, and I set down the phone
D G D Em
Whined from the receiver the muffled dial tone
D G D Em
You were outside smoking, standing out in the snow
D G D Em
I've been running around asking like I don't already know
