[Verse]
C#m A
I took you to a five star dinner
E B
I bought you the most expensive wine
C#m A
I even paid off the maitre d'
E B
To usher us up to the front of the line
C#m A
You told me you needed a stronger, slimmer man
E B
So I went and joined the neighborhood gym
C#m A
Though the weights put my spine out of commission
E B A B
Even you can't deny that I am looking real slim
[Pre-Chorus]
E
You say you're taking your time
A B
Maybe you don't even care
C#m A E
Sometimes I wish I was much more easy to scare easy to scare
[Chorus]
E B
Why? God even knows how I try
A
I can't fascinate you there
E B
Something that I've realized
A
Nothing will ever do for you
C#m A
But I will solve this mystery
E B
But you've gotta give me the first clue
[Verse]
C#m A
You said you always wanted a humble man
E B
So I sold my car and bought a beat up van
C#m A
I guess that wasn't quite enough for you
E B
So now I only speak up when I don't know how to follow your plan
[Pre-Chorus]
E
When you treat me unkind
A B
I wanna leave you far behind
C#m A E
Then I think of all the things that make you so fine
And I'm back in the role again
[Chorus]
E B
Why? God even knows how I try
A
I can't fascinate you there
E B
Something that I've realized
A
Nothing will ever do for you
C#m A
But I will solve this mystery
E B
But you've gotta give me the first clue
I won't stop 'til I find the key
The key to you
[Bridge]
C#m A E B
I took the challenge and I must confess
C#m A E B
I never met someone so hard to impress
C#m A E B
But all you need is someone to love you
C#m A E B
Who needs the rest? Who needs the rest?
[Chorus]
E B
Why? God even knows how I try
A
I can't fascinate you there
E B
Something that I've realized
A
Nothing will ever do for you
C#m A
But I will solve this mystery
E B
But you've gotta give me the first clue
