Verse: (Repeat the intro durring the first part of the verses)
( B,C,F,G)
I've got my own thing
Feel it, it is strong
As short as people think
But really it is long
    C            F           G
I don't have to wait for a miracle
               C          F    G     
They say I'm pretty as a song
   C              F          G
I don't have to save for a rainy day
               C              F         G
I know that something comes along, it always comes along

Chorus:
 C             F            G
Ooh boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
      C         F               G
And watch the silly things you do
 C             F            G                
Ooh boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
   C            F                 G
And I hope you swing it this way too (Boy, I do)

Verse 2:
I've got my own thing
Feel it in a room
Everybody changed
When I do what I do, Cause I do what I do

I don't have to say what i'm thinking cause
Everyone's radio is on and they've heard my latest song
Don't have to stand there with a drink because
They say that we would get along, so let's just get along

Chorus:
Ooh boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you swing it this way too
Boy, I do

Bridge Instrumental: C, F, G 

Bridge Part 2:
I know you're not like other guys
I don't expect you to normalize
I won't get into what you do
Because I'm bettin, bettin, bettin, bettin, bettin' all my money on you

Verse:
I don't have to wait for a miracle
They say I'm pretty as a song, they've heard my latest song
You don't have to stand there with a drink because
I know that we would get along, so let's just get along

Chorus:
Ooh boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you swing it this way too
Ooh boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you swing it this way too. (Boy, I do)
