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