G D G D
I think that I'm dying, do you want to go out?
G D G D
Because we can play some pac-man or go to the library

(chorus)
G D G
And they write books about this sort of thing
D G
And they write books about this sort of thing
D G
Yeah they write books about this sort of thing
Closed-caption heartbeats though five letters long

And if my heart hadn't withered then perhaps I'd trek her down
But I've got a lot to steer on so I guess I'll hang around
