Intro

C  F  G  C

C                    F
Oh I was thinking I couldn't do better
           G                   C
Than this girl who stuck gum straight on the leather
                      F                       
Of this disgusting & expensive sofa
G                   C
Didn't even try to hide it

It wasn't like this at the wedding
Light years before heavy drinking
She tried to teach me how to sit cross-legged
Underneath the table

F              G               C
But I could be pleasingly shiny
Em                      Dm
Not teasing her with shyness
    F                 G               C  F  G  C
Not sat with the skeletons at the bar
F              G           C
& I could draw a perfect line
Em                      Dm
Half this town call me Caroline
   F                     G               C  F  G  C
Say baby what is yours is mine


Was even thinking that I couldn't do better
Than the woman at Whitechapel Welfare Center
Who signs me on every other week
& thank god she never speaks to me

It wasn't like this at the wedding
Light years before heavy drinking
She tried to teach me how to sit cross-legged
Underneath the table

But I could be pleasingly shiny
Not teasing her with shyness
Not sad with the skeletons at the bar

& I could draw a perfect line
Half this town call me Caroline
Say baby what is yours is mine

  C                F

  C                F

G             C

Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye
Bye bye bubble belly
Bubble belly bye bye
