[Verse 1]
        A       Asus      A     Asus
A rainy afternoon

             A      Asus   A    Asus
Spent in the warmest room 

     E
She lay before me and said

           D                               A    Asus   A  Asus
"Yes it's true that I have seen some naked men"

            A       Asus      A     Asus
As she made for the door

           A       Asus      A     Asus
Leaving me on the floor

  E
I wish I'd done biology

       D                              A       Asus      A     Asus
For an urge within me wanted to do it then
[Chorus]
              E
And here she comes again

        D
And I'm sitting on my hands

            A
And she sings to me that siren song

         E                   D
Here she comes again and I'm biting my lip

                A      Asus   A    Asus
But it won't be long
[Verse 2]
           A          Asus       A     Asus
As Brother Barry said 

              A       Asus      A     Asus
as he married Marion

    E                                D
The wife has three great attributes, Intelligence, a Swiss Army

             A       Asus      A     Asus
   knife and charm

               A                 Asus      A     Asus
But that's not enough some times

            A                 Asus      A     Asus
And she did speak her mind

    E
And told them all that she believed

    D           A                   Asus      A     Asus
The only way to disarm is to disarm
[Bridge]
Bm                    F#m
I know people whose Idea of fun

            D             A            D         A
Is throwing stones in the river in the afternoon sun

   Bm             F#m
Oh let me be as free as them

       E
Don't let her pass this way again
[Instrumental] A Asus A Asus A Asus A Asus E D A Asus A Asus A Asus A Asus A Asus A Asus A Asus A Asus E D A Asus A Asus A Asus A Asus [Verse 3]
              A          Asus       A     Asus
Though you cannot be blamed, 

                A          Asus       A     Asus
but I've become inflamed

     E
With thoughts of lust and thoughts of power

D                                         A          Asus       A     Asus
thoughts of love and thoughts of Chairman Mao

             A           Asus       A     Asus
We have such little time 

              A          Asus       A     Asus
at your place or mine

        E
I can't wait till we take our blood tests

         D
Oh baby, let's take our blood tests now
[Chorus]
              E
And here she comes again

        D
And I'm sitting on my hands

            A
And she sings to me that siren song

         E                   D
Here she comes again and I'm biting my lip and I'll take a chip

                A      Asus   A    Asus
But it won't be long
[Outro]
         A    Asus       A      Asus      E      A
It won't be long
