Verse:

E
Don't dilly-dally, come right home
D         A
 I don't see why I must go home
            E
When in the streets the niceties
F#          B
 Come pouring out and over me
E
Its three o'clock and here they come
D        A
 So many that my eyes are numb
        E
Familiar faces each and all
F#           B
 But I've been ordered not to stall

Chorus:

E     C#     F#m
Thanks but no thanks, anyway
E   C#       F#m
I know that you're all OK, but
A     B
My orders come from high above me
Am     B
About a foot or two above me

Verse:

E
The merry band of "How are you's"
D          A
 In tweedy suits and pointy shoes
        E
They offer me a ride in style
F#           B
 And something sweet to make me smile
E
I hate to hurt their feelings so
D          A
 But I'm supposed to tell them no
          E
My parents say the world is cruel
F#         B
 I think that they prefer it cruel

Chorus:

E     C#     F#m
Thanks but no thanks, anyway
E   C#       F#m
I know that you're all OK, but
A     B
My orders come from high above me
Am     B
About a foot or two above me

Just keep right on walking
