Flight of the Conchords
Tuning: Standard
[Verse 1:]
[D]Loretta broke my heart in a letter
[A]she told me she was leaving and her life would be better.
[A]Joan broke it off over the phone
[D]after the tone, she left me alone.
[D]Jen said she'd never ever see me again,
[A]when I saw her again she said it again.
[A]Jan met another man,
[D]Liza got amnesia just forgot who I am.
[D]Felicity said there was no electricity,
[A]Emily, no chemistry.
[A]Fran ran, Bruce turned out to be a man.
[D]Flo had to go I couldn't go with the flow.
[Chorus:]
[F#m]Carol Brown just took a [Bm]bus out of [Em]town,
but I'm hoping that you'll stick around.
[Bridge:]
[G]He doesn't cook or clean, he's not [D]good boyfriend mate[A]rial
(Ooh, we can eat cereal)
[G]You'll lose interest fast, his rela[D]tionships never last[A]
(Shut up girlfriends from the past)
[G]He says he'll do one thing and then he g[D]oes and does anot[A]her thing
[G](Oh, who organized all of my ex-girlfriends into a [D]choir, and got them to
si[A]ng?)
[G]Ah ah ah a[D]h, ah ah a[A]h

[Verse 2:]
[D]Mimi will no longer see me.
[A]Britney, Britney hit me.
[A]Paula, Persephone, Stella, and Stephanie,
[D]there must fifty ways that lovers have left me.
[Chorus:]
[F#m]Carol Brown just took a [Bm]bus out of [Em]town...
[Bridge:]
[G]Love is a delicate thing, it could just f[D]loat away on the br[A]eeze
(He said the same thing to me)
[G]How can we ever know we've found the r[D]ight person in this wo[A]rld?
(He means he looks at other girls)
[G]Love is a mystery that do[D]es not follow a r[A]ule
(This guy is a fool)
[G]He'll always be a boy, he's a m[D]an who never grew [A]up
(I thought I told you to shut up)
[G]Ah ah ah [D]ah, ah ah a[A]h
(Mona, you told me you were in a coma)
[G]Ah ah ah [D]ah, ah ah a[A]h
(Tiffany you said that you had an epiphany)
[G]Ah ah ah [D]ah, ah ah a[A]h
(Mm, would you like a little cereal?)
[G]Ah ah ah [D]ah, ah ah a[A]h
(Who organized this choir of ex-girlfriends, was it you Carol Brown, was it you Carol Brown?)
[Chorus:]
[F#m]Carol Brown just took a [Bm]bus out of [Em]town...
but I'm hoping that you'll [D]
[D]stick around
[D]Do do, do do do do do do
Stick around
[D]Do do, do do do do
[D]Do do, do do do do do do
Stick around
Do do, do do do do
[D]Stick around
