[Verse 1]
Do [G]you really
[E]wanna give him the microphone?
[D]You know that he'll keep talking long
after everyone's gone [G]home
We'll have to [E]pay to keep the lights on
And [D]that bill will arrive [Am]just when
[E]all [D]our savings have [G]gone
Can I say something,
can [E]I give a[D]dvice?
Just [Am]hit t[D]he main switch so we c[Am]an[D]
sleep [C]well [G]tonight

My social [G]standing got me
[E]six rows from the front
And [D]my dinner [Am]com [D]panion
was a little [G]drunk
Says he buys the paper but [D]he
[E]reads between [C]the lines
[D]I c[E]an [Am]show you how I do [D]it,
[Am]why [D]don't you come back to m[G]ine?
Oh please say something,
I'm [E]dying for your [Am]advice
I can tell you won't sleep well if [C]you [D]don't teach
[C]me how to do it right

[Verse 3]
Call me [G]a ride,
[E]I can't walk hom[Am]e
[D]Can't stand [Am]the [D]pain from these
shoes I've now [G]out[D]grown
[G]
