Standard (EADGBE)

My baby don't mess around

Because she loves me so

 And this I know fa sho

But does she really wanna

 But can't stand to see me walk out the do'

Can't Stand to fight the feeling

'Cause the thought alone

 Is killing me right now

Thank God for Mom and Dad

For sticking two together

 'Cause we don't know how

Hey Ya...

Hey Ya...

Hey Ya...

Hey Ya...

You think you've got it

Oh, you think you've got it

But got it just don't get it

 Til theres's nothing at all

We get together

Oh, we get together

But separate's always better

 When there's feelings involved

If what they say is 'nothing is forever,'

Then what makes, Then what makes, Then what makes

 Love the exception?

So why oh, why oh

Why oh, why oh, why oh

Are we so in denial

 When we know we're not happy here?

Hey Ya...

Hey Ya...

Hey Ya...

Hey Ya...

Hey Ya...

Hey Ya...

Hey Ya...

Hey Ya...
