[Intro] A A7 A A7 [Verse 1]
           A                A7
It's the nausea before the game

         A                          A7
And the pain that won't subside in winter

          D                  E
It's the knees that threaten to go bad,

     D              E                   F#m7
The body that you thought you had, that lied

           D                E              F#m
It's the scores that go unanswered and unsatisfied:
[Chorus]
      F#m             D
The growing up, the falling down,

      F#m              D
The throwing up, the shame

     D                    E
The silent prayers, the nausea,

     A
The game
[Verse 2]
      A                 A7
It's anxiety when you recall

 A                                                A7
Girls who touch you when you're walking down the hall

  A7
Nausea before the game,

  A7                A
Nausea before the game

           F#m          E
It's the promise of a perfect life

    F#m
A perfect house

   E                  D7
A perfect wife she'll be

           F#m          E
It's the promise of a perfect star

     F#m
Who's me
[Chorus]
      F#m             D
The growing up, the falling down,

      F#m              D
The throwing up, the shame

     D                    E
The silent prayers, the nausea,

     A
The game

      F#m              Bm7
The sneaking in, the passing out

      D
And where to place the blame.

      D                E
The dying swans, the nausea,

      A
The game
[Bridge]
  A           A7
Nananananan nausea

  A            A7
Nahoodyooayahsoblue

  D7
Nanananananausea

  D7        A
Nanananananausea
A A7 N.C. Hut! Pray for him Hut! Pray for us all Hut! But pray for the boy
           A   A7
With the ball
[Verse 3]
          A                       A7
There is something lacking in my play

           A                    A7
There are rules I must not be aware of

      F#m                     A7
If I touch her breast, would she applaud?

      F#m             A7
Would she protest? Appeal to God?

     D
And weep?

      D                   E
If I touch her would she let me fall

  F#m
Asleep?

    D                  E
I touch her eyes, her lips are warm,

    F#m
Her nose is much the same

       D               E
We're waiting for the whistle sound

      F#m                Bm
She strokes my head and turns around

   E7
I hear my name,

      E
The nausea,
