[Intro]
G Em (x4)
[Verse 1]
G Em C When you walked in, I said with a grin D G That we were just talking about you Em C We all had to lie because you would cry D If you knew we were laughing at you
[Pre-Chorus 1]
G D# Em G In the momentary lull before the band begins to play C D G D There's an overwhelming stench of alibi
[Chorus]
G Em Come on now, now Cm Come on now, now Am D Enjoy the humour of the situation G Em Come on now, now Cm Come on now, now Am D Enjoy the humour of the situation
[Instrumental]
G Em (x2)
[Verse 2]
G Em C I said on the phone "Don't wait till I'm home" D G But I'm sure I could hear you crying Em C I said where I was, but you doubt it because D It's the caller I.D. you're buying
[Pre-Chorus 2]
G D# Em Gm In the hour that it took for me to drive up to the door C D G You'd arranged all my belongings on the lawn
[Chorus]
G Em Come on now, now Cm Come on now, now Am D Enjoy the humour of the situation G Em Come on now, now Cm Come on now, now Am D Enjoy the humour of the situation
[Bridge]
C G Bb F Have you heard the one about the boy Fm C G Who moved into the henhouse to sleep? C G Bb F He woke up with egg on his face Fm C D When he found out all the hens had crossed the street
[Chorus]
G Em Come on now, now Cm Come on now, now Am D Enjoy the humour of the situation G Em Come on now, now Cm Come on now, now Am D Enjoy the humour of the situation
[Verse 3]
G
Em C D G As I walked out, I thought about all I had left behind me Em C I felt a chill because I was still D Wearing the emperor's new clothes
[Pre-Chorus 3]
G D# Em Gm My mind was racing with each chance that I had missed C D G While your next door neighbour soaked me with the hose G D# Em Gm I've never felt so small, I've never been so dissed C D G As I shiver, dripping, while the chorus goes:
[Chorus]
G Em Come on now, now Cm Come on now, now Am D Enjoy the humour of the situation G Em Come on now, now Cm Come on now, now Am D Enjoy the humour of the situation G Em Come on now, now Cm Come on now, now Am D Enjoy the humour of the situation
