          G
There's a word for that

    D               G
But I don't seem to know it

    Cadd9          G                 D               G
Sometimes I grow a moustache just so I don't have to show it

(G)
The word for that

     Cadd9
That someone,somewhere chose

         Dsus4                                       G
For that little dented skin between my upper lip and nose

[Chorus]

Cadd9       Dsus4    G
  There's a word for that

     Em7       Cadd9
What does it start with?

  Dsus4    G
A word for that

    Em7        Cadd9    Dsus4  G
I'd sound so smart if I only   knew

    Em7       Cadd9
The word for that

   Dsus4    G
Perhaps you do?

N.C. (The word you're looking for is philtrum) [Verse 2] There's a word for that It may come to me soon It dangles down in my mouth, and it's often in cartoons The word for that It seems like such a drag To not know what to call that little fleshy punching bag [Chorus] [Verse 3] There's a word for that It's on the tip of my tongue Well actually underneath it, and has been since I was young The word for that Although I won't quote It likely stops my tongue from disappearing down my throat [Chorus] (x2) [End on G]
