INTRO
[Em] [F] [C] [G]
[Em] [F] [C] [Am]
VERSE
[Am]Mail order [F]brides, [C]turtlenecks, and [G]trophy wives
[Am]Had the ways and [F]means to breach
[C]The borders of [G]easy street
[C]And to blend right [G]in
We all [C]surrounded them
In a [F]white picket [C]fence
Now [G]both ends [C]meet
CHORUS
[F]Sufficed to say theres a time and a place
[Am]So I wait
For the [C]tug-of-war and who you'll [G]pull for
[F]While between you and me from point A to point B is a [Am]fine line
That [C]burns at both our good [G]ends
[Am]2 peas in a [F]pod, a batt[C]leaxe, and a [G]bastard child
[Am]took one step m[F]ore
and [C]went straight to the [G]source
[C]and to blend right [G]in
they opened [C]fire with
their [F]rain checks spent
to [C]make [G]ends [C]meet
CHORUS
[C] Go on[G], paint the[F] whole town[C] red
[C]I'd rather[G] follow [F]who cleans up the[C] mess
[C]And [G]so [F]I [D]wait.
Yee[Bbsus]eeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!
Oh [F]yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaahhhhhh
So [C]say [G]yeah!
CHORUS
OUTRO
