-Standard Tuning-

-No Capo-

Chords are played as follows:
E: 022100
Asus2: x02200

[Intro]
E (022100@1)[Verse 1]
(E)
I can sing, I can sing, I can sing better
Asus2 (x02200@1)                     EI (022100@1)can knit a scarf, but you can't knit a sweater
Asus2 (x02200@1)               EWhen (022100@1)I'm underwater I couldn't be wetter
Asus2 (x02200@1)                ENever (022100@1)go swimmin' in a mohair sweater

[Verse 2]
E (022100@1)I can dance, I can dance, I can dance faster
  Asus2 (x02200@1)                 EI (022100@1)tried to keep up but it was a disaster
Asus2 (x02200@1)               EOne (022100@1)more move and I'm gonna be the master
   Asus2 (x02200@1)                 ESo (022100@1)crank it up loud on the ghetto blaster

[Verse 3]
EI (022100@1)can eat, I can eat, I can eat more
Asus2 (x02200@1)                          EAnd (022100@1)when it's not fresh from the local store
Asus2 (x02200@1)                  EThere's (022100@1)a little town in Labrador
      Asus2 (x02200@1)              EWhere (022100@1)she sells seashells by the shoe store

[Verse 4]
EI (022100@1)can speak, I can speak, I can speak quicker
Asus2 (x02200@1)                               EImagine (022100@1)I made a way to make everyone currently frowning snicker
    Asus2 (x02200@1)                EAnd (022100@1)on the guitar he could be a little slicker
    Asus2 (x02200@1)                   EBut (022100@1)Jimmy always said I was a good flatpicker

[Instrumental]
G, Asus2 (x3), E

[Verse 5] - (Only played live, not on the album version)
EI (022100@1)can sing, I can sing, I can sing better
Asus2 (x02200@1)                     EI (022100@1)can knit a scarf, but you can't knit a sweater
Asus2 (x02200@1)               EWhen (022100@1)I'm underwater I couldn't be wetter
Asus2 (x02200@1)                ENever (022100@1)go swimmin' in a mohair sweater
