[Verse 1]
             C#7
Well. I'm up here in this womb

    B       A   B  F#
I'm looking all a--round

          C#7
Well, I'm looking out my belly button window

      B     A     B      F#
And I see a whole lot of frowns

        C#7                     B    A     E F#
And I'm wondering if they don't want me... a-round
[Verse 2]
C#7
What seems to be the fuss out there?

     B             A  B   F#
Just what seems to be the hang?

           C#7
'Cause you know if ya just don't want me this time around,

             B          A       E      F#
yeah I'll be glad to go back to Spirit Land

         C#7
And even take a longer rest,

        B               A     B F#
before, coming down the chute a-gain

       C#7
Man, I sure remember the last time, baby

          B              A    E  F#
They were stlll arguin' about me then
[Chorus]
          C#7           B A
So if you don't want me now,

B/F#         A/E  F# B/F#     A/E  F#
Make up your mind... where or when

       C#7           B A
If you don't want me now,

B/F#    A/E  F#                  B/F#    A/E  F#
Give or take... you only got two hundred days

[Verse 3]
                  C#7
You know they got pills for ills and thrills and even spills

      E            B      A      B   F#13  F#
But I think you're just a little too late

       C#7
So I'm coming down into this world, daddy

  B           A        F#7
Regardless of love and hate

              C#7
And I'm gonna sit up in your bed, mama

           B          A       F#
And just a grin right in your face

                   C#7
And then I'm gonna eat up all your chocolates,

    B      C#7      A   E   F#
and say "I hope I'm not too late"
[Chorus 2]
                  C#7
So if there's any questions,

             B
make up your mind

                  F#
'Cause you better give or take

C#7               B
Questions in your mind

           F#13                                                          
Give it or take,

[Outro]
C#7                          A   B F#
Play the blues fool, Lookin' all a-round

                              C#7
Sure is dark in here. And I'm looking out my belly button window

      B           A                    F#
And I swear I see nothing but a lot of frowns

        C#7               B    A   F#
And I'm wondering if they want me around
