the way you say you do

Bb/F
If you love me half as much

   C7/E
as I love you

          Cm7/Eb                  Bb
You would pluck a planet from the sky

      A                      D
You’d use a star to dot the “i”

          Gm     D7/Gb
In I love you... that is what you’d do

      Bb/F
You'd take a dreary day

              C7/E
and you would paint it blue

If you loved me unconditionally

A
These are the things

                      D
that you would do for me
Because I need you Like a fish needs the sea Like a fire needs oxygen Like a flower needs a bee And if you really care for me You’d let me video you while you wee Standing up in the bath, I shouldn’t even have to ask Perhaps you’ll even store a little more in a flask These are just the things that people do
           A           D           Gm
When their love for one another is true
Ba da da We go together Like a cracker and Brie Like racism and ignorance Like bling and R&B But if you really want to show you care You’d let me wear your underwear When we visit your mum's, it's a bit of harmless fun I just like talking about your childhood with some lace between my buns There’s no reason for a big to-do If your love for one another is true Ba da da We go together Like a bird in a nest Like Internet and porn Like guns and the US And if you love me like you say that you do You'd purchase forty cockatoo And teach them to fly in formation in the sky And shit the words “Tim is God” on my ex-girlfriend’s Hyundai Sure, it might be easier with doves But shirking challenges is not what love
       Eb
Is all about

D                        Eb
Love is not all wine and roses

D                            Eb
Sometimes it’s handcuffs and cheese

C/E                     F
No-one said love is for free

     Am/E
And if you agree with that

               Cm/Eb
You'll sing me passages from the Koran

        D7                            Gm
wearing nothing but a Bob the Builder hat
Dmaj#5/Gb (or... D/Gb) To the tune of waltzing Matilda
       Dm/F                    Gm/E
I just love the combination of Islam,

               Eb/F   F    E
nationalism and buil--der
--*SOLO*-- (Best of luck...) (Builder) (Islam) (Nationalism) (And a little bitty builder) (Islam) (Ozzy Ozzy Ozzy) (And Bob the fucking Builder) ... (Let Bob the fucking Builder!)
          Am
Because I need you

You’d agree to adopt

so that you could stay thin

We’ll get a Chinese kid,

         D7/Gb
it could teach us Mandarin

    Dm7/F                         C
And communists don’t make as much noise

            B
And they’re really good

   E             Am     G
at sharing their toys

          Cm
Because I dig you

        G/B
Like an Aussie digs pies

     Eb/Bb
Like Born-Agains dig Jesus

     F7/A
Like Jesus dug guys

           Fm7/Ab              G
And if you love me unconditionally

      D                    G
You’d do my tax return for me

                Cm
Cos it’s way overdue,

    G/B
and I just don’t know,

Would you let me video you while you wee?

                                                 C
Assuming there's nothing worth watching on the ABC
