Key:
G D G G/A G/B C Well I once knew a man who was going insane
G E A7 D He let love chase him right up a tree
G D It took the police and a fire truck
B7 C Just to bring him back down
G D G D7 Oh, I hate it when that happens to me [Verse 2]
G D It made the front page of the paper
G G/A G/B C The gossip tongues wagged
G E A7 D Why they even showed it all on TV
G D Now if he should live forever
B7 C He won't live it down
