         F              G            Am
I can remember sitting around at my house

       F                          F
And watching the smoke fill the living room

        G                    Am        F
As you rested your feet on my coffee table

                             F
And we watched something on TV

  G               Am
Talked about the world

         F                  F               G      Am  F
But the lines were already drawn from the magazines

                     F
And you called me a sponge

         G              Am             F
And you were just like diamond coated plastic

      F       G         Am    F            F  G
Just plastic, so invincible, so invincible

        Am                 F         F             G               Am
But it's not like that at all, it's not like that anymore and I'm not

              F
Like that anymore

    F                G
And I got to hold my breath

             F                      G
Because the puddle that got you is bound to get me too

    F                   G
And I shouldn't hold my breath

          F                       G
Because a sponge like you needs a puddle to go to

    F                   G
And I, I have breathing room

            F               
Because the puddle in which you fell

     G                              F
My diamond coated plastic could repel

        G            F   G
Could repel, could repel

                               F   G
Diamond coated plastic could repel

       Am
Could repel

    F                                F  G  Am  F
My diamond coated plastic could repel

           F               G           Am              F
And I will repel you just like you're one of the others

           F               G           Am              F
And I will expel you just like you're one of the others

            F    G                 Am     F
Because you are, one of the others now

             F                    G         Am        F
It's kind of weird, I think, the way that people change

           F          G         Am              F
Think you know someone, but you don't, but you can't

         F                 G
Soak 'em up, soak 'em come up

        Am                  F
Because I don't even care anymore

               F         G
Because you'll never be alone

          Am         F
And I'll always be alone

                  F
Because you're a sponge

                  G
Because you're a sponge

                  Am
Because you're a sponge

F
Who would ever guess it?

F                   G                   Am
Not me, not me, but I don't even know anymore

    F                    F   G  Am  F
And how am I to know anymore

    F               G                       F
And I, I'm out of breath, because I've been holding it for years

    G
And holding back the tears

F                       G
Please let me catch my breath

    F             
And soak up a puddle there

     G
And scrambling for air

F                 G
I finally got my breath

           F
And now at least I know for sure

       G         F                G                 F
I'm a puddle stomper, stomper, stomper, stomper, stomper, stomper

        G       F      G      Am    F
I am a puddle stomper,    stomper

              F
I'm a puddle stomper

              G
I'm a puddle stomper

              Am
I'm a puddle stomper

              F
I'm a puddle stomper

              F
And you're a sponge

              G
And you're a sponge

              Am
And you're a sponge

              F
And you're a sponge

              F    G  A  F  F  G  A  F  F  G
And you're a sponge

               Am        F
I'm a puddle stomper now

               F    G
I'm a puddle stomper

               Am    F
I'm a puddle stomper

               F    G
And you're a sponge

           Am  F
And you're a

               F    G  Am  F
I'm a puddle stomper
End on G
