A5 / E5 / F5 / G5

Verse (F?rm A5 ):
      C5                           E5
Don't tell me you don't know what love is 
            A5                 E5        
When you're old enough to know better
         A5                         D5
When you find strange hands in your sweater
          E5
When your dreamboat 
      A5
Turns out to be a footnote 
      D5
I'm a man with a mission 
   E5           G5
In two or three editions, and

Biss (F?rm B5 )

C5     E5          F5        G5

Chapter two, I think I fell in love with you
    A5
You said you'd, stand by me in the middle of Chapter three
             D5
But you were up to your old tricks in Chapters
E5              G5
Four, five, and six, and

The wa-ay you walk
                                        C5
The way you talk and try to kiss me and laugh 
           E5        C5
In four or five paragraphs.
         A5

Oo oooooo Everyday I write the book

Verse (F?rm A5 ):
      C5                          E5
Don't tell me you don't know the difference
   A5                 E5
Between a lover and a fighter  
        A5                      D5
With my pen and my electric typewriter
     E5
Even in a perfect world 
      A5
Where everyone was equal
    D5
I'd still own the film rights
       E5             G5
And be working on the sequel, and
