^C#mHey girl I've been standing up the back not doing m^G#much for this song But that's because my talents are quite limite^C#md But that don't mean that I love you any less^G#m

^C#m It just it's so hard for me to find the words To really express the^G#m way that I feel about you girl

Especially whe^C#mn I have to worry about fitting those words to music And there's some kind of rhym^G#me structure involved [Meaningless Whisper]

^C#mI know it's lazy song writing but I dont care ^G#mCos I sleep on a big pile of money at night ^C#m girl You might think it's weird girl that three guys are singing about the^G#m one girl girl But let me tell you something girl it'^C#ms not weird at all In fact girl It's an industry standard^G#m

^C#mWell girl I better wrap this up about now^G#m cos I just about to cut off by.. Woahowoahowoahoahoh ^F#m
