[Intro]
E
E  B  F#
E              B     F#
Ooooooo-ooooo-ooooooh

[Verse 1]
                                 E    
Some people think they're always right
                       B    F#
Others are quiet and uptight
                         E                                   
Others they seem so very nice, nice, nice, nice, nice, oh oh!
                               B         F# 
Inside they might feel sad and wrong, oh no!
                  E    
29 different attributes
                    B        F# 
And only 7 that you like, uh oh!
                   E            
20 ways to see the world, oh oh!
                      B    F#
Or 20 ways to start a fight

[Pre-Chorus]
N.C.
Oh, don't, don't, don't
      C#m E G#m F#
Get up
                  B       D#m     F# E    
(Tch tch tch tch) I can't see the sunshine
C#m     E  G#m  F#          BD#m
I'll be waiting for you baby
 F#        E      
'Cause I'm through

[Chorus]
          C#m E G#m F#
Sit me down
        B D#m F# E
Shut me up
          C#m EG#m F#
I'll calm down
    B        D#m   F#   E  
And I'll get along with you

[Interlude]
E  B F#
E              B     F#
Ooooooo-ooooo-ooooooh

[Verse 2]
                               E  
Oh, men don't notice what they got
                      B  F#
Women think of that a lot
                               E          
A thousand ways to please your man, oh oh!
                        B       F#  
Not even one requires a plan, I know
                        E  
Countless odd religions too
                            B          F# 
It doesn't matter which you choose, oh oh!
                              E           
One stubborn way to turn your back, oh oh!
                           B        F# 
This I've tried, and now refuse, oh oh!

[Pre-Chorus]
N.C.
Oh, don't, don't, don't
      C#m E G#m F#
Get up
                  B       D#m     F# E    
(Tch tch tch tch) I can't see the sunshine
C#m     E  G#m  F#          BD#m
I'll be waiting for you baby
 F#        E      
'Cause I'm through

[Chorus]
          C#m E G#m F#
Sit me down
        B D#m F# E
Shut me up
          C#m EG#m F#
I'll calm down
    B        D#m   F#   E           
And I'll get along with you, alright

[Outro]
B         
Shut me up
B                     
Shut me up up up up up
B                          
And I'll get along with you
