G
If I had my way 
                      C
every day would be my day 

I would ask you out 
Em
you would say "okay!" 
        C
and I'd come get you at 8 
G                       C
8 'o clock right on the dot 
                           Em
'cause sometimes when I am late 
                        C
then I can't get you to talk 
                       G
and it ruins our whole date 

[Verse 2]
G                       C
and if I had my way we'd go out every night 
        Em                          C
it'd be perfect every time and we'd never ever fight 
G                             C
you know, you used to call me up when you were high 
      Em
and I never ever asked you 
       C
so you never told me why 

[Chorus]
G            C                   Em
your hair is green, your hair is pink 
           C
my head is young 
               G
my heart can't think 
           C               Em
I drive my car, I ride the bus 
           C
I stay too long 
          G
I ask too much 
              C
Your hair was black 
            Em
'til it was blue 
         C
I always had 
           G
a crush on you 
           C
you dye it back 
              Em
when you need to 
          C                G
I'm still deciding what to do 

[Verse 3]
G               G
but if I had my way, 
                       C
I would ask you to the prom 
                          Em
you would want to meet my mom 
                      C
and you wouldn't even tease me 
                        G
for rhyming words in my songs 
                           C
'cause I wrote those songs about you 
                    Em
but I hope you understand 
                        C
that they were actually about me 
                           G
and I hope that you're not mad 

[Verse 4] 
G                           C
cause if I had my way you'd kiss me on the lips 
          Em
and you'd wear that dress you like 
        C
and I'd wear the suit that fits 
G                          C
but when you lie to me you know it makes me sick 
            Em
'cause your phone didn't die, 
         C
but your soul did. (You witch!)

[Bridge]
 G                          C
'cause I wrote those songs about you 
                    Em
but I hope you understand 
                        C
that they were actually about me 
                           G
and I hope that you're not mad 

 G                          C
'cause I wrote those songs about you 
                 Em
And you'd better understand 
                        C
that they were actually about me 
                           G
and I don't care if you're mad 

G                              C
that I wrote those songs about you 
                      Em
and I play them at my shows 
                         C
that I write these songs about you
                         G
and I make sure that you know 
                         C
that I write these songs about you 
                         Em
that I play these songs about you
                         C
that I sing these songs about you 
                        G
that I mean these songs about you
                           C
that I write these songs -
                           Em
that I write these songs -

that I write these songs;
C
Goddamn, I'll write these songs

G C Em C

[Chorus]
G             C                 Em
Your hair was black 'til it was blue
            C
just cut it off if you want to
G          C              Em  C
I couldn't care less what you do
