[VERSE]
Dmaj7 A Gmaj7 Dmaj7
Hear the words a jumbled try this tongue-twister
Dmaj7 A Gmaj7 Dmaj7
Kevin has a caterpillar squeezed between his fingers
Dmaj7 A Gmaj7 Dmaj7
hear the mailman come let's see what he delivers
[CHORUS]
Bm7 Bm7
and you wait and it makes you feel strange
Dmaj7
as if you were afraid
Bm7 Gmaj7
and you lie with a look to the side
A/F#
and you say I was addicted to the drug
A/F# A Dmaj7
but now I know when I've had enough
[VERSE]
Dmaj7 A Gmaj7 Dmaj7
Could curl up and sleep on the floor
Dmaj7 A Gmaj7 Dmaj7
but I'm riding the train a hundred miles an hour
D/E Bm7
feels like this train might never stop ooh
D/E Bm7 A Dmaj7 Gmaj7 Dmaj7
ooh ooh
Dmaj7 A Gmaj7 Dmaj7
Watching static on the television
Dmaj7
when the morning comes
[CHORUS]
Bm7 Bm7
and you wait and it makes you feel strange
Dmaj7 Bm7
as if you were deranged
Gmaj7
with a look to the side
A/F#
and you say I was addicted to the drug
A/F# A Dmaj7
but now I know when I've had enough
