Intro: G C G C 

    G 
I'm overwhelmed with emotion 
    C 
I'm overwhelmed in D 
         G 
I've got 500,000 things on my mind 
      C 
Goin' 500,000 speeds 

    Am 
The shower-head is beyond broken 
    D 
The water's freezin' cold 
    G 
I'm in my blanket on your bed 
    C                       G 
And you are lookin' over at me 

C 
Yeah. 
G 
You See? 
C 
Yeah. 

    G 
For two years I avoided you 
  C 
I wonder why sometimes 
    G 
I'm too ashamed to admit reasons 
C 
Stars were not aligned 

  Am 
I remember walkin' 'round with my hands 
D 
Clenched in two tight fists 
    G                              C 
Two years is two years too long to resist you 
             G        C 
So why did I resist? 

G C 

Em          G 
  I'm on the brink of somethin' 
Em          D 
  So you may listen in 
Em       G 
  I'm not insincere at all 
Am             D 
They were all, they were all... 

G 
Kiddin' when they told you 
      C 
I had banished you from thought 
  G 
I never could not think of you 
   C 
To spare the shoes I bought 

 Am 
Remindin' me of "Art Land" 
      D 
With nobody at the bar 
   G                                C 
To watch you throw my clog upon the floor 
                      G    C 
Where dancers usually are 

Em          G 
  I'm on the brink of somethin' 
Em          D 
  So you may listen in 
Em       G 
  I'm not insincere at all 
Am            D               G 
They were all, they were only kidding!
