Dm                  Am 
Watch your mouth, who-oh-oh 
             C                       F 
Because your speech is slurred and I bet you just might swallow your tongue 
 Dm              Am 
(I'm sure you would) 
             C                        F 
Want to give up the ghost with just a little more poise than that 
       Dm           Am                 C 
(Well, oh-oh) Was it God who choked in these situations, 
F 
Running late? Oh, no, he called in 
       Dm         Am                      C 
(Well, oh-oh) Was it God who choked in these situations, 
F 
Running late? Oh, no, he called in

A relaxing weekend getaway where you're a cut above all the rest

Dm             Am                                C 
That's when you s-s-stuttered something profound 
              F 
To the support of the line 
        Dm                   Am                 C 
And with the way you've been talking every word 
                 F 
Gives you a step closer to hell 
Dm              Am 
That's when you s-s-stuttered something profound 
C              F 
To the support of the line 
        Dm                   Am                 C 
And with the way you've been talking every word 
                 Eb 
Gives you a step closer to hell

I am 
 F                 C              Gm 
Alone in this bed, house and head 
                         F
