make yourself at home , ’cause i’m going out , across the street to get us some water
C E F G
’cause this water’s brown , and i’m so embarrassed to have you here but i want you around
C E F G
usually i’d sing , or play you my guitar , but i know it won’t get very far with you
C E F G
’cause you like music that makes you move , and mine has a groove , but it’s nothing i can prove
