[Intro] N.C. (Oooh, yeah)(Nice song)(Mmm) N.C. (All right, I feel so good) N.C. (I'm gonna do this song that I hate.) N.C. (This is-this is for Giana, in Chicago) G D C G G D C G [Verse 1]
G                    D
  I had seven little dolls

C      G
  In a bag

G                    D
  And I told them my troubles

        C                G
And the dolls said "nag! nag! nag! nag!

G                   D
  It's all you ever do

        C                  G
Is that all you're capable of?"

G                   D
  And I said to the little dolls

C                G
  You have no compassion
[Chorus]
      G                D               C      G
Baby, I'm talking to inanimate objects   over you

G                D               C      G
I'm talking to inanimate objects   over you
[Verse 2]
G                   D
  I was reading the bible

        C          G
First Corinthians 13

      G          D
Where Paul talks all about love

C                  G
  But I don't know what he means

           G                 D
Because he says that love is kind

         C             G
That has not been my experience

     G                         D
So I set the bible down on the   kitchen table

      C                              G
And I yelled at the bible 'til I was   no longer able
[Chorus]
      G                D               C      G
Baby, I'm talking to inanimate objects   over you  (Oh)

G                D               C      G
I'm talking to inanimate objects   over you
[Outro]
      G                D               C    G
Yeah, I'm talking to inanimate objects over you

      G N.C.           D N.C.          C N.C.     G
Yeah, I'm talking to inanimate objects   over you
N.C. (Thank you. Good night.) (Oh yeah)
