Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Pretty girl, wrecking' bar, ra ra ra ra yeah you are

Growing up, I'm twice the man, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I am

The angel's gave, F Scott Fitzgerald

The evening news and the morning herald

I know they're not from very far

Les femmes, les bars; c'est pas une joie!

Where you been? You can't say? Hey hey hey hey yeah you may

That might seem a bit below No no no it's funny though

Let's go home, I think we oughtta

I know you're your mother's daughter

Well brought up and royal blue

But I haven't got the time for you

Finger pointing, pre-supposing

Watch out man the doors are closing

This is what you get when you turn your back

A clear blue sky turning dirty black

03 A Lack of Understanding

Intro

 It's only been a year

 But it feels like a lifetime here

 How's it been for you?

 Does it feel like a lifetime too?

 What would you do now in light of it all?

I don't regret it in spite of it all

 If I can't convince you then nobody can I guess

I've got too much time on my hands

 But you don't understand

 Or you won't understand

 Would I make it right?

 Would it make you less uptight?

 What would it achieve?

 What should I put up my sleeve?

What did you think would come out of it all?

 That we'd quit pretending we doubted it all?

 Oh you don't make me nervous, hell nobody does these days

I've got too much time on my hands

 But you don't understand

 Or you won't understand

I've got too much time on my hands

 But you don't understand

 Or you won't understand

 Are you ready, are you ready, are you ready for this?

 Should I shake your hand or should I give you a kiss?

Is this everything you always hoped it would be?

 We'll see...

I've got too much time on my hands

 But you don't understand

 Or you won't understand

I've got too much time on my hands

 But you don't understand

 Or you won't understand

 Okay, I could live without it,

 Were you ever my age? No, I doubt it.

 A native American feather;

 But Generals look better in leather.

Blow, blow, blow it up!

Blow, blow, blow it up!

Blow, blow, blow it up!

 Blow it up! Blow it up! Blow it up!

Shipping out his son on the weekend,

 But you don't feel as young with a girlfriend,

 I'm bored trying to deal with your ego,

Late light bagging in Willow.

Blow, blow, blow it up!

Blow, blow, blow it up!

Blow, blow, blow it up!

 Blow it up! Blow it up! Ah come on!

Instrumental

Blow, blow, blow it up!

Blow, blow, blow it up!

Blow, blow, blow it up!

 Blow it up! Blow it up! Blow it up!

05 Wetsuit

If at some point we all succumb

For goodness sake let us be young

Because time gets harder to outrun

And I'm nobody, I'm not done

With a cool cool breeze and dirty knees

I rest on childhood memories

We all got old at breakneck speed

Slow it down, go easy on me

 Go easy on me

Aaah aaah ah-ah aaah

Chorus

 Put a wetsuit on, come on, come on

 Grow your hair out long, come on, come on

 Put a t-shirt on

 Do me wrong, do me wrong, do me wrong

If it's up and after you

What do you suppose that you would do?

You're all whacked out from lack of sleep

You blame it on the friends you keep

You want to do things differently

And do them independently

We all got old at breakneck speed

Slow it down, go easy on me

 Go easy on me

Aaah aaah ah-ah aaah

Chorus

 Put a wetsuit on, come on, come on

 Grow your hair out long, come on, come on

 Put a t-shirt on

 Do me wrong, do me wrong, do me wrong

 Put a wetsuit on, come on, come on

 Grow your hair out long, come on, come on

 Put a t-shirt on

 Do me wrong, do me wrong, do me wrong

Bridge

 Does holy water make you pure?

 Submerged your vision's just obscured

 You're a lot like me

In up to our knees

In over your chest is way too deep

Chorus

 Put a wetsuit on, come on, come on

 Grow your hair out long, come on, come on

 Put a t-shirt on

 Do me wrong, do me wrong, do me wrong

 Put a wetsuit on, come on, come on

 Grow your hair out long, come on, come on

 Put a t-shirt on

 Do me wrong, do me wrong, do me wrong

06 Post Break Up Sex

I can barely look at you

 Don't tell me who you lost it to

Didn't we say we had a deal?

Didn't I say how bad I feel?

Everyone needs a helping hand

 Who said I would not understand?

Someone up the social scale

 For when your going off the rails now,

Post break-up sex that helps you forget your ex,

What did you expect from post break-up sex?

Leave it till the guilt consumes

 I found you in the nearest room

All our friends were unaware

Most had just passed out downstairs

 To think I hoped you'd be okay

 Now I cant think of what to say

Maybe i misunderstood

 but I cant believe your feeling good from

Post break-up sex that helps you forget your ex,

What did you expect from post break-up sex?

Solo.

Post break-up sex that helps you forget your ex,

What did you expect from post break-up sex?

 Oh when you love somebody but you find someone (uh huh huh)

 and it all unravels and it comes undone (uh huh huh, uh huh huh, uh huh huuuuuuuuuh)

Post break-up sex that helps you forget your ex,

What did you expect from post break-up sex?

Post break-up sex that helps you forget your ex,

What did you expect from post break-up sex?

07 Norgaard

The chords are;

Lyrics from Songmeanings

Great Dane's cheekbones,

Teenage hormones,

Young complexion,

Non-physical affection.

You're a god send;

Do you want a boyfriend?

Crazy crazy, easy tiger!

Her mind's made up, she don't wanna go steady,

She's only seventeen so she's probably not ready.

-m--n-- Norgaard,

I saw you on a cover on Cross Bay Boulevard.

Smaller tits

And skinny framework,

Tall, sharp hips

And you're all in the same work.

Giving me the sweet talk,

Walking down the catwalk.

I want a mannequin!

But she won't let me in

Her mind's made up, she don't wanna go steady,

She's only seventeen so she's probably not ready.

-m--n-- Norgaard,

I saw you on a cover on Cross Bay Boulevard.

Her mind's made up, she don't wanna go steady,

She's only seventeen so she's probably not ready.

-m--n-- Norgaard,

I saw you on a cover on Cross Bay Boulevard.

Her mind's made up, she don't wanna go steady,

She's only seventeen so she's probably not ready.

-m--n-- Norgaard,

I saw you on a cover on Cross Bay Boulevard.

08 Under Your Thumb

Intro

Hanging out some

Underneath European sun

Hanging out under your thumb

 Under it, second to none

I don't mind about taking it slow

I'm perfectly aware of what I'm yet to know

Mutually assumed, utterly consumed

Totally adored, Eleanor

 Eleanor

Eleanor 2x

Take it in your stride but don't string me along

I wouldn't tie you down but if you did do me wrong

Thoroughly unnerved, equally perturbed

Totally adored, Eleanor

09 All In White

Break me on the 37th hour,

Tout me, doubt me, show me all of your power.

I will watch you rise on my back from afar,

Friend, I thought, don't know if you're up in the stars.

 Oh but I will one day shine with you,

I'll shine on a papal view.

Ahhh

Ahhh

 Well, show me long quotations,

Help you and your strides.

Fabricate salvation,

Lord, I know your type; I've known you all my life.

I was always wrong, you all in white.

Bless my chords I start with a little trouble

Oh my god I begged for a big bubble

I will watch you rise on my back from the ground.

Friend, I don't know if you'll like what you've found.

Because I will one day shine with you,

I'll shine on a papal view.

Ahhh

Ahhh

Oh show me long quotations,

Help you and your strides.

Fabricate salvation,

Lord, I know your type; I've known you all my life.

I was always wrong, you were all in white.

Oh show me long quotations,

Help you and your strides.

Fabricate salvation,

Lord, I know your type; I've known you all my life.

I was always wrong, you were all in white.

10 Wolf Pack

You've seen the world

 What did it look like?

You took a plane

 I'll take a push bike

Run with the wolves

 Calling all the wolf pack

When did you go and when did you get back?

I don't even know you

 You're just someone new I don't want to talk to

You're wild, I don't find you crazy at all

You're on the rocks

Would you like to get some?

I'm kind of straight

Where do you come from?

I'm always right but what's your perception?

I'm kind of shy

Oh, didn't he mention?

I don't even know you

 You're just someone new I don't want to talk to

 You're wild, I don't find you crazy at all

Bridge

I don't even know you

 You're just someone new I don't want to talk to

 You're wild, I don't find you crazy at all

I don't even know you

 You're just someone new I don't want to talk to

 You're wild, I don't find you crazy at all

11 Family Friend

 Chords: //

They've all got their opinions but then what do they know

If you can't go back, where the hell do you go?

Does everybody really feel as high as a kite?

Well I don't really know if they do but they might

You wanna get young but you're just getting older

And you had a fun summer but it's suddenly colder

If you want a bit of love put your head on my shoulder

It's cool

They've all got their opinions but then what do they know

If you can't go back, where the hell do you go?

If you want a bit of love put your head on my shoulder

It's cool

Half baked girl

Hey, I'm hardly surprised

Snake eyes disguise everybody's lies

Faded nail marks on pale thighs and an awkward secret that someone denies

And now you're trying to get yourself back in

Come on in

You wanna get young but you're just getting older

And you had a fun summer but it's suddenly colder

If you want a bit of love put your head on my shoulder

It's cool

You wanna get young but you're just getting older

And you had a fun summer but it's suddenly colder

If you want a bit of love put your head on my shoulder

It's cool

Intro

I'm alright,

Why'd you ask?

I'm uptight, I guess.

Let it pass.

I've never had much in common with you. Ohhhh

You brought me up,

Gentle and mild.

 But I'm somebody else's,

Somebody else's child.

, x2

Full head of hair,

Bright blue eyes.

I get my nose, I'm told,

 From my Mother's side.

She took a lover that she barely knew. Ohhh

I let you down,

Wayward and wild.

 But I'm somebody else's,

 Somebody else's child.
