fma13       G         C9 
It's the perfect time of year
fma13       G          C9
 Somewhere far away from here
 fma13      G           C9
I feel fine enough, I guess
 fma13      G            C9
Considering everything's a mess
fma13      G            C9
 There's a restaurant down the street
fma13      G            C9
 Where hungry people like to eat
 fma13      G            C9
I could walk but I'll just drive
   D          fma13         G
 It's colder than it looks outside

 C9              G
It's like a dream you try to remember

 But it's gone
 Then you try to scream
 But it only comes out as a yawn
 When you try to see the world
 Beyond your front door
 Take your time, is the way I rhyme gonna make you smile
 When you realize that a guy my size might take a while
 Just to try to figure out what all this is for

 It's the perfect time of day
 To throw all your cares away
 Put the sprinkler on the lawn
 And run through with my gym shorts on
 Take a drink right from the hose
 And change into some drier clothes
 Climb the stairs up to my room
 Sleep away the afternoon

 Like a dream you try to remember
 But it's gone
 Then you try to scream
 But it only comes out as a yawn
 When you try to see the world
 Beyond your front door
 Take your time is the way I rhyme gonna make you smile
 When you realize that a guy my size might take a while
 Just to try to figure out what all this is for

 Pinch me, pinch me, cause I'm still asleep
 Please God tell me that I'm still asleep

 On an evening such as this
 It's hard to tell if I exist
 If I pack the car and leave this town
 You'll notice that I'm not around
 I could hide out under there
 I just made you say "underwear"
 I could leave but I'll just stay
 All my stuff's here anyway

 Like a dream you try to remember
 But it's gone
 Then you try to scream
 But it only comes out as a yawn
 When you try to see the world
 Beyond your front door
 Take your time is the way I rhyme gonna make you smile
 When you realize that a guy my size might take a while
 Just to try to figure out what all this is for

 Pinch me
 Try to figure out what all this is for
 Pinch me
 Try to see the world beyond your front door
 Pinch me
 Try to figure out what all this is for
