Verse 1:
             C#7
Well. I'm up here in this womb
    B       A   B F#
I'm looking all a-round
          C#7

And I see a whole lot of frowns

And I'm wondering if they don't want me... around

What seems to be the fuss out there?
     B             A  E   F#
Just what seems to be the hang?
           C#7
'Cause you know if ya just don't want me this time around,
             B          A       E      F#
yeah I'll be glad to go back to Spirit Land
         C#7
And even take a longer rest,
        B               A     E F#
before, coming down the chute a-gain
       C#7
Man, I sure remember the last time, baby
          B              A    E  F#
They were stlll hawkin' about me then

Make up your mind... where or when

If you don't want me now,
B/F#    A/E  F#                  B/F#    A/E  F#
Give or take... you only got two hundred days

Verse 3:
                  C#7
You know they got pills for ills and thrills and even spills
      A            B      Ab     A   F#13  F#
But I think you're just a little too late
       C#7
So I'm coming down into this world, daddy
  B           A        F#7
Regardless of love and hate
              C#7
And I'm gonna sit up in your bed, mama
           B          A       F#
And just a grin right in your face
                   C#7
And then I'm gonna eat up all your chocolates,
    A      B        A       F#
and say "I hope I'm not too late”


Chorus 2:
                  C#7
So if there's any questions,
             B
make up your mind
                  F#
'Cause you better give or take
C#7               B
Questions in your mind
           F#13
Give it or take,

Outro:
C#7                          A   B F#
Play the blues fool, Lookin' all a-round
                              C#7
Sure is dark in here. And I'm looking out my belly button window
      B           A                    F#
And I swear I see nothing but a lot of frowns
        C#7               B    A   F#
And I'm wondering if they want me around
