E        C            G            A            C      B
   Hit my snooze alarm for the 27th time
E            C      G       A            C           B
   Just don't feel like going to work - I think I'll call my boss then I'm
A  B        C     D          A
   Gonna hack and cough and wheeze
B          C       D
Swear I've got some strange disease
A           B       C         D
What's that little twerp gonna say?  Hey...

(Chorus) - (Hard rock style, lots of crashes, overdriven guitar)
E    C C      G                  A
        I'm callin' in sick today
E    C C  G              A
        Callin' in sick today

I could shine my pennies or clean my lava lamp

I could spend all day in my underwear watching "Ernest Goes To Camp"

I could sit and count my hair

I could burp my Tupperware

I'm not busy now anyway.   Hey..........

(Chorus)
E    C C      G                  A
        I'm callin' in sick today
E    C C  G              A
        Callin' in sick today
E    C C  G                    A
        Ain't going to work, no way
E    C C  G              A            G
        Callin' in sick today

(Bridge) - (same as chorus)
B      A  B               A
  I can do anything I want to
B   A    B    A
  I am invincible now
B    A          B        A
     I'm on fire, baby
      B                        D
  I'm alive, I'm alive, can you hear me, world?
      E
  I'm alive!

Maybe I'll spend all day staring at the sun and trying not to squint

Maybe I'll make a huge color tapestry from my bellybutton lint

When I'm sick of takin' abuse

I just make up some lame excuse

Freedom's just seven digits away.  Hey...

(Chorus)
E    C C      G                  A
        I'm callin' in sick today
E    C C  G              A
        Callin' in sick today
E    C C  G                          A
        Ain't going to work, no way
E    C C  G                  A            G
        Callin' in sick today
