Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)
Cady:
C*. G*
When I was five, I fell in love
F*
It didn’t last
Am*
He ran from me
Literally
F*
Ran from me
Am*
And being Kenyan
G*
He ran fast
C*. G*
When I was ten, in love
Am*
Again
F*
This peace corps guy
C*
I waited hours
G*. *Am
Inside his tent with flowers
F*
Which made him laugh
Which made me cry
C
By thirteen I gave up trying
G Am
I decided I would be a mathematician
F
‘Cause math is real
C G
I memorized a lot of pi
Am
Because additions and subtractions and division
F
Would never make me feel
C
So stupid with love
G
Like I didn’t get it
Am F
I didn’t get it, somehow
C G
Smart with math but stupid with love
Am
I didn’t get it
F
I didn’t get it...
Till now
AARON:
N.C.
Do you have an eraser?
CADY:
N.C.
I would love to
C G
So thank you, math, for being there
Am F
To bring me joy
C G
And thank you, math
Am F
‘Cause now brought me this cute boy!
AARON:
N.C.
Is it two?
CADY:
N.C.
YES!
C
He’s like someone from T.V
G Am
He’s like that guy who give out roses to those women
F
His clothes
His grooming
C G Am
And he’s foot away from me; with swoopy hair and shiny eyes that I could swim in
F
He is live and in the room!
C
And I’m stupid with love
G
I wanna get it
Am F
I wanna to get it, but how?
C G
Smart with math, but stupid with love
Am
I wanna get it
F
I didn't get it till now
CADY AND AARON:
N.C.
Two over zero is undefined
AARON:
N.C.
Jinx
CADY:
N.C.
Ha!
C*
I’m astounded and non-plussed
G*
I am filled with calculust
Am*
Does this guy work out?
He must
F*
All sweaty at the gym
C*
Could that image be more hot?
G*
Let me just enjoy that thought...
Am*
School was rough but now? It’s not
F
‘Cause now there’s him
G
It’s all so simple
C
Stupid with love
G
But I can get it
Am F
Watch this girl self-educate
C G
I learned math, so I can learn love
Am
You wanna bet it?
F
That I can get it?
C
Just wait
G
Just wait
C G F
Just wait!
C F C
