🤘 Intro:

Em


🤘 Verse 1:
Em
When it came to me one day in Jerksville
Em
Man, I was right on the edge
Em
That jacket’s too small for a man of your size
Em
And those socks are too big for your head

🤘 Chorus:
   C                  G         D
My eyes glaze at whatever you say
        C           G           D
But I’m listening, do tell me more
        C                        G        D
It goes under the bridge, right over my head
    C               G         D     Bm   Em
And out through my portable door


🤘 Verse 2:
Em
I was trapped in a dire situation
Em
Between reason and someone-in-law
Em
The winner takes all and runs off with the ball
Em
Nothing could pleasure me more


🤘 Chorus:
C                     G          D
Times were, I’d have spoken my piece
      C          G             D
For a minute or two held the floor
      C                       G          D
But I can’t get a word in so here I am hurtling
      C               G         D      Bm
Right out through my portable door

🤘 Chorus:
    C                       G              D
The jabbering’s hurting my brain cell so bad
    C           G          D
For once in my life I am bored
    C                        G           D
The public house beckons, I follow the call
         C              G         D      Bm
And slip in through my portable door


🤘 Verse 3:
      Em
The unlikely event came upon me
Em
I wasn’t prepared for the shock
Em
Once round my neck and twice round the deck
Em
And the rest disappeared up the block


🤘 Chorus:
   C                G             D
So here we are and everything’s changed
C            G       D
Faster than ever before
    C                     G                D
You gotta be jokin’, man what are you smoking
        C               G         D      Bm
Blow it out through my portable door


🤘 Outro:
Em
