Verse 1:
      E MajorE      BB  A#A#        G+G     E MajorE  BB A#A# G+G
She's been lonely for weeks, starting to think he doesn't care
         E minorEm     BB       A#A#    G+G      E MajorE    BB A#A# G minorGm
They say “if you had better posture, then maybe he'd answer your prayers”
      E minorEm      BB        A#A#      G+G      E minorEm  B minorBm A#A# G+G
And now the times, when I see, the weight lift from the sides of her frown
  E MajorE       BB         A#A#      G minorGm        E MajorE  BB A#A# G+G
She stands up too straight Lord, and gravity just brings them back down


Chorus:
  A augmentedA    G+G     F#F#      D MajorD
A augmentedA rumor, a tumor, is buried in the years
  A augmentedA      G minorGm         F#F#      D MajorD
The first of the first lord, its the worst of your fears
A augmentedA      G+G       F#F#       E MajorE  D MajorD
Adam, sweet adam, starts to feel, a little weird
   A augmentedA       G+G     F#F#      F# minorF#m  BB B minorBm
When eve comes home with her, belly button pierced

       E MajorE BB A#A#           G+G    E MajorE  BB A#A#
Well I'm not dumb, but there's something going on here
G+G    F#F# E MajorE BB A#A#           G+G    E MajorE  BB A#A# G+G
Well I'm not dumb, but there's something going on here


Verse 2:
    E MajorE      BB     A#A#       G+G    F#F#  E MajorE BB A#A# G+G
Call it lust in the dust, but it's far from a pharaohs affair
     E MajorE         BB           A#A#      G minorGm     E MajorE  BB A#A# G+G
The most beautiful girl, in all the world and you long for your hand in her hair
      E MajorE    BB      A#A#         G+G F#F# E MajorE BB A#A# G+G
You sing cleo, sweet cleo, can I stay with you tonight
       E MajorE       BB      A#A#         G+G  E MajorE     BB A#A# G+G
But when you turn down the lights, her anatomy just don't seem…quite right

Chorus:
     A minorAm    G+G   BB       A augmentedA
Oh it's a rumor, a tumor, buried in the years
  A augmentedA      G+G          BB       D MajorD
The first of the first lord, it's the worst of your fears
A augmentedA      G+G        F# minorF#m      E MajorE
Adam, sweet adam, starts to feel, a little queer
   A augmentedA       G+G     F#F#
When eve comes home with her, belly button pierced
