Intro - Gmaj7 
 
Gmaj7                     C 
Don't pay no mind to it  
             C2     Gmaj7 
Oh let it blow  
 
Break you up inside  
       C             C2     Gmaj7 
If you don't let it go  
                               A 
Jeez what are you like honey  
 
I don't know  
   
   
G    D      C     C2 
Recommended by my bank  
G        D    C      C2 
And everybody in the tank  
G        D       A 
First of all I'd like to thank  
   
   
Gmaj7                           C 
This might take a while honey  
           C2        Gmaj7 
Hey don't blink  
                            C 
Missing by a mile now we're  
             C2        Gmaj7 
Here on the brink  
                           A 
Not a day goes by honey  
 
I don't think  
   
G       D       C        C2 
I could be your volunteer  
G              D           C        C2 
We'll make the whole thing disappear  
G      D        A     B 
Saddle up we're outta here  
G         D     C           C2 
You could be my olive branch  
G       D      C            C2 
Lift me up above the stench  
G       D           A 
Walk me through the avalanche  
   
G     D         C           C2 
Honey won't you be my flood  
G       D    C             C2 
Nothing ever comes out good  
G       D      A 
Trouble in the neighbourhood  
G     D       C        C2 
Conversations gone askew  
G              D       C             C2 
And how do you make it feel like new  
G    D     A 
Kookaburra kangaroo  
G        D         C          C2 
Will you won't you be my leech  
G       D       C            C2 
Take it all and when I screech  
G        D          A 
Leave it there just outta reach  
G       D       C           C2 
Take me to that burning bush  
G       D         C           C2 
Give me something I can't crush  
G       D     A 
Lead me out into the hush  
   
 
So far behind  
So far behind  
So far behind  
So far behind
