                    C5
You might think I&#039;m mad
                                       G5
For doing all the things that I don&#039;t need to do

     C5                             G5
Sometimes a cold shiver comes over me
                D5                            G5
And it turns me on when the song takes over me
      C5                                       G5 
But alright, I can&#039;t fight it the odds are against me

Because I know that I will


                           G5                      D5
And you&#039;ll be watching me girl, takin&#039; over the world

Let the stripes unfurl, gettin&#039; rich singin&#039; &quot;Poor boy, poor boy&quot;
                       G5                   D5 
And I&#039;ll be comin&#039; to play, I do it every day
                     G5                  C5         D5    G5
