A7 (A7/C A7/C#) D9 (D7/C)
JAMIE
A7 (A7/C A7/C#) D9 (D9/C)
Everyone tells you that the minute you get married
A7 (A7/C A7/C#) D9 (D9/C)
Every other woman in the world suddenly finds you attractive
Well, that's not true
A7 (A7/C A7/C#) D9 (D9/C)
It only affects the kind of women you always wanted to sleep with
A7 D7/A C/A
But they wouldn't give you the time of day before
A7 D9/G# D9/G
And now they're banging down your door
G7
And falling to their knees
(G7/E G7 G7/G# G7/A)
G7/E G7/G G7/G#
At least that's what it feels like because you
A7 (A7/E A7/G A7/G# A7/A)
Can Not Touch Them
(A7/E A7 A7/G# A7/G)
In fact, you can't even look at them
G9
Close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes
D7
Except you're sitting there
Eating your corned beef sandwich
F7
And all of a sudden, this pair of breasts walks by
And smiles at you
E7
And you're like "That's not fair!"
F#m7 F#m7/E
And in a perfect world
D7
A miracle would happen
F#m7 F#m7/E D9
And every other girl would fly away
F#m7 Eadd6/G#
And it'd be me and Cathy
A9/G D/F#
And nothing else would matter
F#m/D A/C# B7
But it's fine, it's fine, it's fine
I mean, I'm happy
F#m/D A/C# B7
And I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine
It's not a problem
A/E
It's just a challenge
D/E
It's a challenge to resist
Temptation
Instrumental
A7 (A7/C A7/C#) D9 (D9/C)
A7 (A7/C A7/C#) D9 (D9/C)
A7 (A7/C A7/C#) D9 (D9/C)
And I have to say that what exacerbates the problem
Is I'm at these parties
A7 (A7/C A7/C#) D9 (D9/C)
I'm the center of attention, I'm the grand fromage
And here she comes:
F#m7 (F#m7/G# F#m7/A)
"Let's get a cup of coffee
D7 (D7 D7/C)
Will you look at my manuscript?"
A7 (A7/C A7/C#)
And I'm showing her my left hand
A7 (A7 A7/G#)
I'm gesticulating with my left hand
G9 (G9/D G9/F G9/F# G9)
And then WHOOMP! There's Cathy!
'Cause she knows
They always know
A7
And there's that really awkward moment
A7
Where I try to show I wasn't encouraging this
(A7/E A7 A7/G# A7/G)
Which of course I was
G9
And I don't want to look whipped in front of this woman
(G9/D G9/F G9/F# G9) G9
Which is dumb - I shouldn't care what she thinks
E7
Since I can't fuck her anyway!
F#m7 F#m7/E
And in a perfect world
D7
A miracle would happen
F#m7 F#m7/E D9
And every girl would look like Mister Ed
F#m7 Eadd6/G#
And it'd be me and Cathy
A9/G D/F#
And nothing else would matter
F#m/D A/C# B7
But it's fine, it's fine, it's fine
You know I love her
F#m/D A/C# B7
And I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine
It's what I wanted
F#m/D A/C# B7
And I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine!
It's not a problem
A/E
It's just a challenge
D/E
It's a challenge to resist
Temptation

When you come home to me
Bm D
I'll wear a sweeter smile

And hope that, for a while, you'll stay

When you come home to me

Your hand will touch my face

And banish any trace of gray

Soon, a love will rise anew

Even greater than the joy I felt

Just missing you

D7
Don't give up on me yet
Gsus2/F Gsus2/E
I am so proud of you, baby
Gsus2/F Gsus2/E
You're doing what you never got to do before
Staccato 1/8ths
Gsus2/F F#dim D
And I will be there, ripe and crawling
Gsus2 G#dim E
If fucking Random House stops calling
Am7
Don't lose faith
Bb2
Don't get down
Bsus4
Don't despair
G2/E -> E7 A9 F#m7/D
I'll be there
F#m7
And in a perfect world
D9
A miracle would happen
F#m7 Ab D9
And that day would finally be here
F#m7 Ab
And it'd be me and you
A
Riding it together
F#m7 Ab
And the things we do
A9 A9/C#
Goin' like we planned
F#m7 Ab
We're gonna make it through
A11
And nothing else will matter
F#m7/D C#
We'll be fine, we're fine
F#m7/D C#
We're fine, we're fine
