Head on the wall...
C# F#
And my piss hardly makes the stall,
C# F#
And this time it's not an act.
C# F#
This time I swear it's fact.
A#m D#m
Now I ramble on,
C# F#
About that girl who's gone;
C# F#
And I tried teaching her guitar,
C# F#
Now she's standing at the bar.
D#m
She tells me her favourite song,
F#
And I say, "Yeah, that's a good one..."
D#m
She says it follows her around.
F# Move up two frets and strum once
No shit, it's by the Beatles.

Adam's in love again.
C# F#
And the good Rev wants to jam instead.

Morgan's hearing none of it.
C# F#
She says we're doing it again.
A#m D#m
The neighbourhood's up in arms.
C# F#
They're trying to shut down all the bars
C# F#
When everyone's a private eye
C# F#
They're hiding in the bushes every night.
D#m
The cats square off in the street,
F#
The dogs go through the garbage.
D#m
You wanna stay for the night tonight?
F# F# then slide up two frets strum once
Well I know all about platonic, honey.
