  			C   
In 1900 you held hands and felt like you'd scored  
 				   F 
In 1910 you'd never need a horse anymore  
   Dm 
In 1920 you could dance  
   C 
In 1930 lose your pants  
   G				C 
In 1940 you could go to war really soon  
In 1950 you could just be dull and a bore  
   E7                    A    A G 
In 1960 set the world on fire  
F        G     C       F 
That was then, this is now 
    C                G      C  
And nothing's blowin in the wind  
 
Chorus: 
        C  
Screwed up, that's the problem  
 				     F 
You're going down, down, down, down, down  
                        G 
Screwed up, that's your problem  
                                    C 
You're coming unwound wound, wound, wound  
You're wasting time seeking comfort  
                      F  
from any sight or any sound  
                              C 
I knew you when you weren't a bit screwed up  
    G					  C       
Now what you got is spreading around  
 
It really doesn't matter if you know how to sing  
The only thing that matters is the girl that you bring  
So when I saw you sitting there just asking for some curly hair  
I knew that I was getting where I wanted to be  
But someone must have warned you, so it's Anchors Aweigh  
This Johnny's marching home again tonight  
You couldn't leave quietly You had to tell the world and loud  
 
Chorus 
 
 
C 
I'm getting on my nerves I'm getting on my nerves and  
E7                                           A    A G 
everything you're throwing at me coming up a curve 
F       G     C       F 
Swing & miss, Swing & miss  
C                G           C 
Swing & miss and then you're out  
 
Chorus
