[Intro]

Riff1; C----Am7----F--G--Am---- [x2]

[Verse] (* indicates picking bass string, \ indicates strum (^ as upstroke, to taste),
according to patterns above)

Riff1
C* \         ** \    Am7 *   *    \
   Just because I don't say anything, 
                _
        F       G   N.C.    Am
Dosn't mean         I don't like you. 

Riff1
C*      \        ** \     Am7*  *     \
    I open my mouth, and I try and I try. 
            _
F\   \   ^  G\    \    Am
     but no words come out. 

[Verse] [same sequence & timing]

Without 40 ounces of social skills, 
I'm just an ass in the crack of humanity. 
I'm just a huge manity -
a huge manity.                          * I really don't know what a 'manity' is, I've looked but to no avail... if you know please do 

[Chorus] [Use the last Am to play you into this]
         [Strum as you feel it goes]
                                           _
Am                          C (?)   G (not G)
And besides you're probably holding hands 
          Fm (Fm7?)                         C
with some skinny, pretty girl that likes to 
           G
talk about bands, and
Am                     C          G
all I wanna do is ride bikes with you,
    Fm (Fm7?)          C           G7
and stay up late, and watch cartoo-oons. 

[Instrumental] [Play verse pattern and whistle tunefully down a piccalo]

...Duck tails, shirt tails, tail spin, sailor man, GI joe, robotech,.. 

[Chorus Pattern]

I just wanna watch cartoons with you. 
Jossie and the Pussy Cats and Scooby Doo, 
I want you to watch cartoons with me:
He-man, Voltron and Hong Kong Fooey 

[Verse]

I tried to ask you to your face 
but no words came out. 
Put on my hood and walked away, 
that dosnt mean I don't like you

[Chorus]

And besides you're probably holding hands 
with some skinny, pretty girl that likes to 
talk about bands, and
all I wanna do is ride bikes with you. 
and stay up late and maybe spoon. 

[Verse]

Just becase I don't say anything 
dosnt mean I don't like you. 
..no.. 
I opened my mouth and I tried and I tried. 

[Chorus]

And besides, you're probably holding hands 
with some skinny, pretty girl that likes to 
talk about bands, and
all I wanna do is ride bikes with you. 
and stay up late and watch cartoons. 

I'm just your average undercats host.
