I'm not leaving, I ain't going...

D       Am     Bm
you never asked me to! 

D       Am     C      G
So I'll sit and smile here with you, 

D       Am     Bm     C
like I never thought Id do. 

D       Am     C      G
Wash the walls and paint the windows, 

D       Am     Bm
polish face and shave the shoe. 

D       Am     C      G
I got gal and I got friends, 

D       Am     Bm     C
like I never thought I'd do. 

D       Am     C      G
I never thought the sun would rise 

D       Am     Bm
in the east and set in west; 

D       Am     C      G
I figured I owned just dark skies 

D       Am     Bm     C
and that darkness ft me best. 

D       Am     C      G
Here I is, all thin and balled-up, 

D       Am     Bm
wrapped up in a coat of you.

D       Am     C      G
 I ain't hemmed-in, I ain't walled-up; 

D       Am     Bm     C
I am free and I'm loving you. 

D       Am     C      G
I can snooze and I can amble.

D       Am     Bm
I can jump when you say "boo." 

D       Am     C      G
Freedom is a hard-won gamble; 

D       Am     Bm     C
so is holding things like you. 

D       Am     C      G
My chest swells and my nose snores; 

D       Am     Bm
it's all okay by you. 

D       Am     C      G
I've never felt this welcome before...

D       Am     Bm     C
I'd a never thunk, would you? 

D       F-F#/D                C
Serves one right. No need to think. 

D       Am     C      G
It will all be laid before us, 

G                       F-F#/D F-F#/D
and god will guide us to our graves, 

C                       D
smiling, singing: 

D          Am         D                G                      G               C
Go folks! Go forth! Go folks! Trust your brain! Trust your body!
