Verse 1
Am              F              C               C    G/B
 Heya Tom, it's Bob.. from the office down the hall
Am               F                 G    C/G G
 Good to see you buddy, how've you been?
Fdim7                         Am              Am7/G     D7/F#
 Things have been OK for me except that I'm a zombie now
                           G
I really wish you'd let us in
  F                 C                E7         Am
I think I speak for all of us when I say I understand
  F                 C                E7         Am
Why you folks might hesitate to submit to our demand
    F              Fm
But here's an FYI: you're all gonna die.. screaming



Chorus

C      G             F               G
All we want to do is eat your brains
            C                   G                       F(chorus Figure)
We're not unreasonable, I mean, no-one's gonna eat your eyes
C      G             F               G
All we want to do is eat your brains
            Am            Em              F(chorus figure)
We're at an impasse here, maybe we should compromise:
       F    F/E    Dm
If you open up the doors
F         F/E    F        G        C
We'll all come inside and eat your brains



Verse 2
Am               F                    C                     G/B
 I don't want to nitpick, Tom, but is this really your plan?
Am                        F               G    C/G G
 To spend your whole life locked inside a mall?
Fdim7                        Am                Am7/G           D7/F#
 Maybe that's OK for now but someday you'll be out of food and guns
                                 G
And then you'll have to make the call
    F                C               E7                 Am
I'm not surprised to see you haven't thought it through enough
    F             C                 E7             Am
You never had the head for all that bigger picture stuff
    F                            Fm
But Tom, that's what I do, and I plan on eating you.. slowly



Chorus 2

C      G             F               G
All we want to do is eat your brains
            C                   G                       F(chorus Figure)
We're not unreasonable, I mean, no-one's gonna eat your eyes
C      G             F               G
All we want to do is eat your brains
            Am            Em              F(chorus figure)
We're at an impasse here, maybe we should compromise:
       F    F/E    Dm
If you open up the doors
F         F/E    F        G        Ab
We'll all come inside and eat your brains



Bridge
            Eb               Gdim7          C#
I'd like to help you Tom, in any   way   I  can
         C#m                             Ab
I sure appreciate the way you're working with me
          Eb               Gdim7           Fm
I'm not a monster Tom, well, technically I am
          C
I guess I am

Am                F                  C                  G/B
 I've got another meeting Tom, maybe we could wrap it up
Am                   F             G      C/G G
 I know we'll get to common ground somehow
Fdim7                            Am                  Am7/G          D7/F#
Meanwhile I'll report back to my colleagues who were chewing on the doors
                             G
I guess we'll table this for now
    F               C                E7         Am
I'm glad to see you take constructive criticism well
F                  C                 E7          Am
Thank you for your time I know we're all busy as hell
          F
And we'll put this thing to bed
Fm
When I bash your head.. open
