           D                                      G
If   you   hate me                  why don't you go ?
But if you love me          why don't you let me know ?
But  you   just won't give me            an inch, so
you  just  sulk

               D                            G
Why do I wanna hide          whenever you show up ?
You know your moods   they make we wanna throw up
Why  don't you just           bloody well grow up ?
You   just    sulk

[Chorus]:
B#m           F#m                G(III)                               A
All of the   time  why don't you pick  me  up   and   show  me   a  sign?
All over the place why don't you tell me what you think, c'mon tell..
                                                         ..me  to my face

               D                                G
If     you    love  me           why don't you show it ?
If     you    hate  me    why don't you let me know it ?
Why don't you just      pick up something an' throw it ?
You   just    sulk


[Piano over D G D G ]

               D                          G
Well if  you  want to             bend my arm
you   could   do it  with a little more charm
But you just couldn't bear to do me any harm
so you just  sulk

               D                                 G
And    you    tell  me that        you want to quit
and then you treat me          like a piece of shit
and when I ask you  'what's that got to do with it?'
You    just   sulk


B#m           F#m                G(III)                              A
All of the   time  why don't you pick  me  up   and   show  me   a  sign?
All over the place why don't you tell me what you think, c'mon tell..
                                                         ..me  to my face

               D                                G
If     you    love  me           why don't you show it ?
If     you    hate  me    why don't you let me know it ?
Why don't you just      pick up something an' throw it ?
You   just    sulk


                            ??are you sure??
D                G
  Sulk,  hang around the town, we'll have an' heave another barbie
  Sulk,  come down the road, we'll get a key, Bob, alrightie
  Sulk,  ad lib and fade is what Wiggy says
  oooh   oooh ...
