Verse 1:
A5   G5        D5 E5          E5 G5 E5 A5     G5     D5  E5
  I      don't    own   you,  but I       know   you're  mine.
A5   G5        D5 E5          E5 G5 E5 A5     G5     D5  E5
  Never     dis - own   you,      never  treat  you unkind.
(no chord)     A5//////////    G5     E5 G5 A5//////////
  Once in a while______       you get on my nerves.
  G5   E5 G5   A5//G5//A5///// G5 A5   G5  A5  G5 E5
  Once in a while______       you get what you deserve.
  E  G    Ab  A  A   Ab  Ab G    G   G   G  E G  Ab  A    A  Ab   Ab Ab  G
  I need you ninety-nine percent of the time, ninety-nine percent of the time
EGA  A   Ab   Ab G    G  G   G   E G  Ab  A    A  Ab   Ab Ab  G
  Ninety-nine percent of the time, ninety-nine percent of the time.

Use the same chord formations for verses 2 and three.

Verse 2:

  If I asked you, what's on your mind,
  would you say me, would they be thoughts unkind?
  Once in a while____  I'm not myself.
  Once in a while____  I think you're someone else.
  I want you 99% of the time, 99% of the time.
  99% of the time 99% of the time.

I have no idea what the hell is going on in the break
between the second and third verses.  Just freak out
and make noise, it will probably sound about right.

Verse 3:

I can't touch you, but you feel so f****** fine
Let's just stay like this and waste some more time.
Once in a while____  you gin in my way.
Once in a while____  you know I got to say..
I love you 99% of the time, 99% of the time.
99% of the time, 99% of the time.

(continue with same chords)
99% of the time, 99% of the time.
99% of the time, 99% of the time.

(back to chord progression at the beginning of the verse)
A5    G5    D5 E5   E5 G5 E5 A5   G5   D5 E5     A5

And then make as much noise as possible.
