Intro:
G+G   E MajorE  C majorC D MajorD

Verse 1:
   G+G
I'm tired of conversations with my friends and family
   C majorC         G+G       A augmentedA        D MajorD
About what I think the future holds for my best girl and me
  G+G                      E MajorE
I fully understand exactly what they're driving at
     C majorC      G+G       D MajorD          G+G
And unfortunately my answer tends to leave them somewhat flat

Pre-Chorus:
   A augmentedA              D MajorD
Unsubtle hints are met with awkwardness
    A augmentedA            D MajorD
So I feel I am required to confess


Chorus:
       G+G
I don't want kids
      C majorC
I just want pets
       A augmentedA           D MajorD
I can't foresee that this will be one of my great regrets
        G+G
Your kids are fine
          A augmentedA
Cause they're not mine
     C majorC         D MajorD         G+G
To me a life lived without children sounds divine!


Solo:
D MajorD G+G D MajorD


Verse 2:
  G+G
I tried to make excuses when folks arrive with their baby
     C majorC        G+G         A augmentedA       D MajorD
There's nothing I dread more than someone handing it to me
 G+G                        E MajorE
But declining offers to have them rested on your knee
 C majorC      G+G       D MajorD     G+G
Makes one a pariah within polite society

Pre-Chorus:
   A augmentedA              D MajorD
The room looks round with eyes of pure dismay
    A augmentedA            D MajorD
And no one will believe it when you say...


Chorus:
       G+G
I don't want kids (I don't want kids!)
      C majorC
I just want pets (I just want pets!)
       A augmentedA           D MajorD
I can't foresee that this will be one of my great regrets

Your kids are fine (Your kids are fine!)
          A augmentedA
'Cause they're not mine ('Cause they're not mine!)

To me a life lived without children sounds divine

Bridge:
C majorC            G+G
I know children can be fun
   D MajorD               G+G
And yours I'm very fond of, it is true
    C majorC        G+G
The advantage is that when I grow weary of their noise
     A augmentedA         D MajorD
I can direct them back to you
