Great song, these chords might have been used on another version, but I know if 
you are like me, you want to see chords for the whole song, and none of the 
versions have that, so please enjoy.
Capo on 2

         G                   Cadd9
It's been one week since you looked at me
G                            Cadd9
Cocked your head to the side and said "I'm angry"
G                   Cadd9
Five days since you laughed at me saying
G                  Cadd9 
"Get that together come back and see me"
G                    Cadd9
Three days since the living room
G                             Cadd9
I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you
G               Cadd9
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
G                                          Cadd9
but it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry


(During the rap its just kind of a funky rock thing I dont really know what its 
called but you just hold 000033 if it feels more comfortable you can play G but 
your really only going to strum the high strings)

Hold it now and watch the hoodwink

As I make you stop, think

You'll think you're looking at Aquaman

I summon fish to the dish, although I like the Chalet Swiss

I like the sushi 

'cause it's never touched a frying pan

Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes

Big like LeAnn Rimes

Because I'm all about value

Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits

You try to match wits, you try to hold me but I bust through

Gonna make a break and take a fake

I'd like a stinkin achin shake

I like vanilla, it's the finest of the flavours

Gotta see the show, cause then you'll know

The vertigo is gonna grow

Cause it's so dangerous,

you'll have to sign a waiver


Em7                    Dsus4
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
G/B                Cadd9
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
Em7                     Dsus4
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
G/B 
Can't understand what I mean?
Cadd9
Well, you soon will
Em7                  Dsus4
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
G/B                 Cadd9
I have a history of taking off my shirt

         G                   Cadd9
It's been one week since you looked at me
G
Threw your arms in the air
Cadd9
and said "You're crazy"
G                   Cadd9
Five days since you tackled me
G                      Cadd9
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees
G                          Cadd9             
It's been three days since the afternoon
G
You realized it's not my fault
Cadd9
not a moment too soon
G               Cadd9
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
G                                              Cadd9
And now I sit back and wait til you say you're sorry



(Again with the 000033 through the whole verse)



Chickity China the Chinese chicken

You have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin'

Watchin' X-Files with no lights on

We're dans la maison

I hope the Smoking Man's in this one

Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic

Like Sting I'm tantric

Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy



Like Kurasawa I make mad films

Okay, I don't make films

But if I did they'd have a Samurai

Gonna get a set a' better clubs

Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs

Just so my irons aren't always flying off the back-swing

Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon

'Cause the cartoon has got the boom anime babes

That make me think the wrong thing


Em7                    Dsus4
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
G/B                Cadd9
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
Em7                     Dsus4
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
G/B 
Can't understand what I mean?
Cadd9
Well, you soon will
Em7                  Dsus4
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
G/B                 Cadd9
I have a history of losing my shirt


          G                  Cadd9
It's been one week since you looked at me
G
Dropped your arms to your sides
Cadd9
and said "I'm sorry"
G                 Cadd9
Five days since I laughed at you and said 
G                         Cadd9
"You just did just what I thought you were gonna do"
G                           Cadd9
Three days since the living room
G                    
We realized we're both to blame,
Cadd9
but what could we do?
G                  Cadd9
Yesterday you just smiled at me
G                                               Cadd9
Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry


G                                         Cadd9
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
G                                         Cadd9
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
G                               Cadd9
