G#7sus G#7 G#6sus4 G#6 G#7sus4
see those trees

G#7 G#6sus4 G#6
bend in the wind

G#7sus4 G#7 G#6sus4 G#6 G#7sus4
i feel they’ve got a lot more sense than me

G#7 G#6sus4 G#6
you see i try to resist

G#7 ( played throughout )
a rubberband bouncing back to life
a rubberband bend the beat
if i could learn to give like a rubberband
i’d be back on my feet
a rubberband hold me trousers up
a rubberband ponytails
if i could learn to twang like a rubberband
i’d be a rubberband girl

G#7sus4 G#7
a rubberband girl me

G#7sus4 G#7
a rubberband girl me

G#7sus4 G#7
oh i wanna be a rubberband girl

G#7sus4 G#7
( a rubberband girl , she . )

( same as verse )
when i slip out
of my catapult
i gotta land with my feet firm on the ground
and let my body catch up

( repeat refrain )

G#7 ( throughout )
give like a rubberband
twang like a rubberband
snap like a rubberband
rub – A – dub – A – dub – A – dub
rub – A – dub – A – dub
rub – A – dub

G#7sus4 G#7 G#6sus4 G#6
one rubberband won’t keep you up

G#7sus4 G#7 G#6sus4 G#6
two rubberbands won’t keep you up

G#7sus4 G#7
three rubberbands won’t keep you up
here i go . . . . . . ( adlib )
. . . . yeah! ( repeat and fade )
