Cause I [D]got some fat to chew

[Verse 2]
Everybody needs somebody
[C]that they can talk [G]to
Someone to open up their ears
And [A]let that trouble [D]through

Or [C]care what they may [G]do

[D]that they can talk [G]to

Appre[C]ciate you listening [G]to me
And I be[C]lieve I heard him
[G]sing these words
As [D]he skipped out across [G]the sea
