[C] Now there's a[Cmaj7] question I l[Am]ike,
kept me [G]up and I have been [F]thinking [G]all night l[C]ong.[G]
[F] Summert[G]ime gonna c[C]ut my h[C7]air now,
[F]and ask a [G]friend to die it [C]red.[C7]

[C] Yes I[Cmaj7] hate to a[Am]dmit
but I m[G]iss you like h[F]ell miss you e[G]very da[C]y.[G]
[C] And yes I[Cmaj7] hate to be [Am]asked
cause every[G]time they do I[F] don't know wh[G]at to s[C]ay[G]
[F] I need someo[G]ne to c[C]ome and s[C7]ave me,
[F]when I'm [G]wrapped up in my [C]world.[C7]
[F] Need someo[G]ne to p[C]oke a f[C7]inger
[F]in the p[G]laces where it [A]hurts.
G? (not to sure about this one) D
Baby it's driving me mad I need your warm hands back on my head,

[C] I felt m[Cmaj7]yself slipping b[Am]ack
I could f[G]eel the old [F]man grab me [G]by the th[C]roat.[G]
[C] He slowly [Cmaj7]squeezed out the[Am] air
made me l[G]ook like a f[F]ool, chokin'[G] every wo[C]rd[G]
[F] I know to[G]night I [C]lost the [C7]fight,
[F]pulled the blankets [G]way over my h[C]ead.[C7]
[F] Had the [G]old man stand[C] guard at th[C7]e door,
[F]checked for g[G]hosts under my [A]bed,
G? D
baby it's driving me mad and I don't think I can take it anymore.
