[Intro]
A F#m [x2]
//// ////
[Verse 1]
A
I feel my chin hit my chest
F#m
As I do my best to stay calm
C#m
I feel my face start to ache
Bm7 Esus4
As I try to shake the a-larm
F#m
As I roll on my side
Bm7
There's a smile on her face
C#m F#m
That says much more than words ever will
Bm7 D A Asus4 A
About how she maintains all the spirit she's gained
[Chorus]
C#m
When I'm grouch of the day
Bm7
When I've drifted away
C#m Bm7
And I'm moping around in a sulk
C#m
She'll have something to say
Bm7
And I usually obey
C#m Bm
Then I get my resentments in bulk
C#m
That's the price that you pay
Bm7 C#m
For being grouch of the day
Bm7 C#m
For being grouch of the day
Bm7 A
For being grouch of the day
N.C.
(Oh-ohh) Grouch of the day

[Verse 2]
A
As my legs start to shake
A F#m
The feeling is great and I'm gone
C#m
I feel butterflies wing
C#m Esus4
As she starts to sling music on
F#m
As she rolls on her back
Bm7
With her smile full of charm
C#m F#m
That says much more than words ever will
Bm F#m7 F#m
About how the delight of her good time to-night
G C#m D
Makes me look like I'm over the hill
Bm
Her beauty e-rodes
Esus4
The desperate loads
Bm Esus4
Of pressure that fills up my day
Bm A
With one smile all the stress melts a-way
