It's About Time - The Lemonheads (from the 'Come on feel ...' album)
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's the lyrics with some chords to get you going. It should be
pretty obvious where the chords are to be repeated. Some places
you might choose between playing the Dmaj7-figure or plain D(/F#) chord.
Responses are welcomed.

Dmaj7   GaddD
Bite my tongue
Dmaj7                   GaddD
and I won't say a word against anyone
      F#m                 Bm
but I don't wanna get my fingers wet
  GaddD            Em
unless it's an accident

fell out on the street
now I'm watching my shoes and I grit my teeth
but I don't have to look that way
if I had half a say

D/F#       GaddD
It's about time
D/F#       GaddD
It's about time
D/F#    GaddD
lick my lips
D/F#                        GaddD
and I won't hear the end of this

On your knees a reassurance
buy some time and come back for it

before long
before it's gone

patience is like bread I say
I ran out of that yesterday

it's about time
it's about time

G
enough about us
let's talk about me
if not about you
      A
It's not about sunshine

It's about time
It's about time
touch my leg
It's smooth but there stubble there

I'll fall back and let'em go
only when I know you know

I don't know
make me sure

Have your people contact mine
and keep your lawyer on the line

it's about time (x4)
