INTRO:
   ------
   Em
   
   
   VERSE 1:
   --------
     Em
   I need someone, a person to talk to
   
   Someone who'd care to love
               C
   Could it be you
               Em
   Could it be you
   
   
   VERSE 2: [Play like verse 1]
   --------
   Situation gets rough, then I start to panic
   It's not enough, it's just a habit
   Hey kid you're sick
   Darling this is it
   
   
   CHORUS:
   -------
   C                  D                 C
     You can all just kiss off into the air
             D                   C
   Behind my back I can see them stare
                   D               C
   They'll hurt me bad but I won't mind
                   D                      C           D
   They'll hurt me bad they do it all the time  (Yeah yeah)
                           C           D
   Yeah they do it all the time  (Yeah yeah)
                      C                    D
   They do it all the time  (do it all the time)
                      C                    D
   They do it all the time  (do it all the time)
                      C                   D             Em
   They do it all the time, do it all the tiiiiiiiime
   
   
   VERSE 3:
   --------
   Em
   I hope you know that this will go down on your permanent record
                              C
   Oh yeah, well don't get so distressed
                                    Em
   Did I happen to mention that I'm impressed
   
   
   GUITAR/BASS SOLO:
   -----------------
   No way in hell am I going to transcribe this. I don't transcribe
   solos as a general rule, and besides, the solos from Violent Femmes
   are usually impossible to transcribe because they're just something
   completely random. So play whatever you want.
   
   
   BRIDGE:
   -------
   Em  [the whole bridge is just Em, no other chords]
   I take one, one, one 'cause you left me
   And two, two, two for my family
   And three, three, three for my heartache
   And four, four, four for my headaches
   And five, five, five for my lonely
   And six, six, six for my sorrow
   And seven, seven for n'n'no tomorrow
   And eight, eight, I forget what 8 was for
   but nine, nine, nine for a lost god
   Ten, ten, ten, ten, for everything everything everything everything
   
   
   CHORUS: [play like first chorus, end on Em]
   -------
   You can all just kiss off into the air
   Behind my back I can see them stare
   They'll hurt me bad but I won't mind          
   They'll hurt me bad they do it all the time  (Yeah yeah)
   Yeah they do it all the time  (Yeah yeah)
   Yeah they do it all the time  (do it all the time)
   Do it all the time  (do it all the time)
   Do it all the time time time time time time time
   t't't't't't't't'time time time time
   Do it all the tiiiiime
