Chords

[INTRO] E E Esus E [VERSE]
      E                      Esus    E
Your mother finally took all of her money

    A
And put it where her mouth used to be

        B
Turning anybody's ear

          B                      A
About her friends that disappeared 

    E                         Esus    E
And how she's sailing further out to sea
[VERSE]
     E                        Esus  E
Your father's spending all of his vacation

A
Learning foreign names for all his fears

         B
While spirits he's detected

          B                 A
From the data he's collected

E                             Esus   E
Turned out to be just ringing in his ears
[CHORUS]
    A                 E
You look like one of them

         B               E
But you talk like one of us

A                  E              B
Everything they're telling you is wrong

    A                 E
You look like one of them

        B                E
But you talk like one of us

Babe I think you know where you belong
[VERSE]
      E                       Esus E
Your sister's always mortally offended

        A
At the mispronunciation of her name

        B
Telling all her newest clients

          B          A
That the "w" is silent

   E                          Esus      E
Before she sends them out the way they came
[VERSE]
     E                         Esus   E
Your brother sends me all his latest poems

           A
About his secret dreams of learning how to dance

            B
He always adds a line for you

       B                       
Asking when you're coming through

   A                  E                  Esus E
So he can tell his supervisor six months in advance
[CHORUS]
    A                E
You look like one of them

         B               E
But you talk like one of us

   A                 E             B
Everything they're telling you is wrong

     A                E
You look like one of them

         B               E
But you talk like one of us

 A                     E           B
Babe I think you know where you belong
[BREAK] E Esus E A B E Esus E [VERSE]
      E                                 Esus E
Your old flame is still counting up his money

       A 
In a secret lair he built behind the shelf

          B
Where he chants in repetition

          B               A
"Lead me not into temptation"

     E                       Esus  E
I'm pretty sure he knows the way himself

Everything they're telling you is wrong

Babe I think you know where you belong
