[Verse 1]
G       D/F#              Cadd9
One day I will build a fountain

          D/F#            G
Drink and never grow old

          D/F#      Cadd9
Then I'll market an elixir

          D/F#                   Em
that will eliminate the common cold

Em         Em7             Am    Am7
Find your sickness on my list

Em         Em7              Am    Am7
    Pay up front and make a wish
[Verse 2]
G          D/F#               Cadd9
   One day I will work with animals

          D/F#                 G
All the tests I'm gonna do

          D/F#            Cadd9
All my stuff's completely natural

         D/F#                               Em
And when we're done we'll boil 'em down for glue

            Em7         Am      Am7  
That we can use to re-adhere

Em               Em7               Am     Am7
    Your lips to mine if you were here
[Chorus]
G        G/F#        Em7    A7
There's a lot I will never do

G    G/F#         Em7       A7  
Some fantastic, I know it's true

G           G/F#       Em7     A7      C
But none as much as my want to be with you
[Verse 3]
G       D/F#            Cadd9
I can't stand to wait in line long

        D/F#                G
So I built a new machine

          D/F#            Cadd9
It just measures up the distance

         D/F#                   G
And then eliminates the folks between
[Verse 4]
G       D/F#           Cadd9
One day I'll construct a satellite

         D/F#                 G
And I'll name it after you

          D/F#               Cadd9
'Cause you were the greatest friend of all

           D/F#                     Em
Except for when you split my lip in two

           Em7            Am      Am7
To see the look upon your face

Em        Em7            Am       Am7
    As I launch you into space.
[Chorus]
G        G/F#        Em7    A7
There's a lot I will never do

G    G/F#         Em7       A7  
Some fantastic, I know it's true

G           G/F#       Em7     A7      C
But none as much as my want to be with you
[Bridge]
G   D   Em   A7
Bye-bye self-respect

G         D              Em7       A7
I haven't had much of it since you left

G D      Em7         A7      C
I missed out on the best of you
[Verse 4]
G       D/F#           Cadd9
Some day I will find the secret 

         D/F#                 G
To your social chemistry

          D/F#            Cadd9
Then I'll print it on a t-shirt

         D/F#                      Em
And it'll make you want to be with me

     Em7                Am      Am7
If I wear it past your work

Em             Em7            Am       Am7
    You'll see other guys are jerks

Em            Em7            Am        Am7 
    Much like pheromones for flies

Em           Em7          Am       Am7
    You will not avoid my eyes.
[Chorus]
G        G/F#        Em7    A7
There's a lot I will never do

G    G/F#         Em7       A7  
Some fantastic, I know it's true

G           G/F#       Em7     A7      C
But none as much as my want to be with you
[Bridge]
G   D   Em   A7
Bye-bye self-respect

G         D              Em7       A7
I haven't had much of it since you left

G        D   Em7    A7      C
I missed out on the best of you
[Bridge]
G   D   Em   A7
Bye-bye self-respect

G         D              Em7       A7
I haven't had much of it since you left

G D       Em7       A7      C
I missed out on the best of you
[Outro]
