Tick Season

G As you promised me the winter blues were finally going away D You must have forgot the part that when it thaws the bugs come out to play Em Cause you got me with the flowers and the green leaves in the trees C But something sinister comes out with the birds and with the bees G Now I am stuck inside my house on the beautiful spring day D With memories of frolicking out in the grass and in the hay Em And I am terrified of what is lurking out there on the ground C Doc told me it's fine, but you know I have my doubts G And I love the spring but it's the season of the ticks D and I walked through medium-length grass cause I forgot that they existed Em so it's half my fault, but I don't like to be their victim C they'll drink all my blood till they're ten times their size and then some G and I dream each night of going outside and playing D then I look down and there's five on my legs Em those little Grass Vampires will bring me to my knees C I am terrified of getting Lyme disease G So I thought if I wore socks and pants I'd probably be okay D That I could cancel out the chance of having sucky stowaways Em But the risk did not pay off, cause when the day did end C I found the bastards in my crotch and they were happy and well fed G And I love the spring but it's the season of the ticks D and I walked through medium-length grass cause I forgot that they existed Em so it's half my fault, but I don't like to be their victim C they'll drink all my blood till they're ten times their size and then some G and I dream each night of going outside and playing D then I look down and there's five on my legs Em those little Grass Vampires will bring me to my knees C I am terrified of getting Lyme disease G D Of getting Lyme disease Em I really like red meat C Oh, and there's a bunch of other stuff, G That sounds scary G And I love the spring but it's the season of the ticks D and I walked through medium-length grass cause I forgot that they existed Em so it's half my fault, but I don't like to be their victim C they'll drink all my blood till they're ten times their size and then some G and I dream each night of going outside and playing D then I look down and there's five on my legs Em those little Grass Vampires will bring me to my knees C D I am terrified of getting Lyme disease G Lyme disease
