          C
There's a word for that

    G               C
But I don't seem to know it

    Fadd9          C                 G               C
Sometimes I grow a moustache just so I don't have to show it

(C)
The word for that

     Fadd9
That someone,somewhere chose

         Gsus4                                       C
For that little dented skin between my upper lip and nose

[Chorus]

Fadd9       Gsus4    C
  There's a word for that

     Am7       Fadd9
What does it start with?

  Gsus4    C
A word for that

    Am7        Fadd9    Gsus4  C
I'd sound so smart if I only   knew

    Am7       Fadd9
The word for that

   Gsus4    C
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 C]
