Well okay, so you fell asleep today
                D                
What's funny to me though is that 
                G
you did that yesterday
                    C
You might think I'm mad
For doing all the things that I 
       G
don't need to do
                             D  
But while you're laughin' at me, 
                           G
well I'll be laughin' at you


                   G               
So I get into the game, but always 
             D
keep it the same
                        G
And I'll be usin' your name,
                               C   
but they'll be yellin' at me "Poor 
     D    G
boy,poor boy"
                       G           
But I'll be happy for you, cause 
                  D
you got nothin' to do
                          G   
And I'll be singin' the blues, 
                           C
walkin' around singin' "Poor 
       D    G
boy,poor boy"


     C                             
Sometimes a cold shiver comes over 
G
me
                D               
And it turns me on when the song 
             G
takes over me
      C                          
But alright, I can't fight it the 
             G
odds are against me
                  D
But I can't sit still
                       G
Because I know that I will


                           G   
And you'll be watching me girl, 
                   D
takin' over the world
                  G                
Let the stripes unfurl, gettin' 
            C         D    G
rich singin' "Poor boy, poor boy"
                       G           
And I'll be comin' to play, I do it
        D
 every day
                     G      
And the title will stay, Hip
