[Chords] G 320033 Cadd9 x32033 Em7 022033 D xx0232 [Intro] D G Cadd9 x4 [Verse 1]
    D       G      Cadd9
I'm sitting on the toilet with my sunglasses on

D         G    Cadd9
Wondering what you are up to

     D  G    Cadd9
This hotel's got bathroom telephones

    D       G     Cadd9
But I don't wanna interrupt you

             D        G    Cadd9
You might be painting your nails with your hot curlers on

D    G     Cadd9
Each one a different color

   D    G       Cadd9
Or listening to that Beach Boys' sailing song

 D     G    Cadd9
"Sloop John B." or another
[Chorus]
    D        Em7 Cadd9
Ethylene, my Ethylene

            D      Em7    Cadd9
My love for you is just obscene

            D         Em7      Cadd9
My deer you dress, my fish you clean

            D       Em7   Cadd9
But you are nowhere to be seen
N.C. My Ethylene [Interlude] D G Cadd9 x2 [Verse 2]
     D         G        Cadd9
Now, you could bag your limit with a bow and arrow

      D         G      Cadd9
Yeah, you could skin a cougar in the dark

      D         G       Cadd9
Well, I thought we were walking down the straight and narrow

D     G       Cadd9
How'd we ever drift so far apart

      D   G    Cadd9
I put eighteen wheels on this road to nowhere

    D   G    Cadd9
And you disappeared right up in the hills

     D     G    Cadd9
Like smoke up a chimney, girl I go there

      D  G  Cadd9
Yeah, in my dreams I visit you still
[Chorus]
    D        Em7 Cadd9
Ethylene, my Ethylene

            D      Em7    Cadd9
My love for you is just obscene

            D         Em7      Cadd9
My deer you dress, my fish you clean

            D       Em7   Cadd9
But you are nowhere to be seen
N.C. My Ethylene [Interlude] D G Cadd9 x8 [Verse 3]
    D        G    Cadd9
Now some men will drive to the edges of nothing

   D        G      Cadd9
So they can take a peek at the great abyss

     D    G    Cadd9
Some men avoid love like it was a plague or something

   D        G         Cadd9
So they can leave the seat down when they piss

            D   G     Cadd9
I miss that crocheted thing you kept on the kleenex box

D  G       Cadd9
 I miss my feet on your cold linoleum floor

D       G      Cadd9
Sipping hot coffee after making love till daybreak

D   G       Cadd9
Ethylene, a fool would ask for more
[Chorus]
    D        Em7 Cadd9
Ethylene, my Ethylene

            D      Em7    Cadd9
My love for you is just obscene

            D         Em7      Cadd9
My deer you dress, my fish you clean

            D       Em7   Cadd9
But you are nowhere to be seen

       D        Em7 Cadd9
My Ethylene, my Ethylene

            D      Em7    Cadd9
My love for you is just obscene

            D         Em7      Cadd9
My deer you dress, my fish you clean

            D       Em7   Cadd9
But you are nowhere to be seen

       D Em7 Cadd9
My Ethylene

       D Em7 Cadd9
My Ethylene

       D Em7 Cadd9
My Ethylene
[Outro] D Em7 Cadd9 G
