Well the cat is in amongst the pigeons and the pigeons are in the pie,
AEDAE
and the pie is on the kitchen table and nobody at all is eating,
AEDAE
and the apple is in my eye and my eye is somewhere else,
AEDAE
and my lips are shaped to fit a lie and the snake is in the grass
DbmF#m
and your heart is on your sleeve, your heart is on your sleeve
DA
it's time for me to leave, your heart is on your sleeve,
DbmF#m
your heart is on your sleeve, your heart is on your sleeve,
DE
it's time for me to leave, time for me to leave, time for me to leave
AEDAE
and the snake he sees the apple and the snake he knows my eye,
AEDAE
and the cat he sees the pigeons but he doesn't see the pie,
AEDAE
that nobody at all is eating though the knives are on the table,
AEDAE
the cards are in my pocket and your heart is on your sleeve
DbmF#m
your heart is on your sleeve, your heart is on your sleeve
DA
its time for me to leave, your heart is on your sleeve,
DbmF#m
your heart is on your sleeve, your heart is on your sleeve,
DE
and it's time for me to leave, time for me to leave
(softer)

the mule was in the corn in the hour that I was born,
AEDAE
and the bull's been in the china shop ever since my voice dropped
AEDAE
goodbye~ I'm leaving here tomorrow,
AEDAE
it's easier than just waiting around to lie
DbmF#m
and your heart is on your sleeve, your heart is on your sleeve
DA
your heart is on your sleeve, your heart is on your sleeve,
DbmF#m
your heart is on your sleeve, your heart is on your sleeve,
DE
n baby it's time for me to leave, time for me to leave, time for me to leave
