Verse One:
F             G                     C               Em
It's    the   per- fect  time  of   year
some    where far  a-    way   from here
I       feel  fine e-    nough I    guess
con-    sid'- ring ev-   e-    ry-  thing's a  mess.
There's a     rest'raunt down  the  street
        where hung-ry    peo-  ple  like    to eat
I       could walk but   I'll  just drive

Bridge:
D/F#                F               G
It's colder than it looks outside.


   Chorus:
   C                                             Em
   It's like a    dream  you try to re-mem-  ber but  it's gone, then
   F                                             G
   you  try  to   scream but it  on-ly comes out as   a    yawn, when you
   C                                             Em
   try  to   see         the           world be- yond your front
   F                                             G
   door.
   C                              B
   Take your time cause the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile, when you
   F                              G
   real-ize  a    guy   my        size    might take a   while, just to
   C                              B
   try  to   fig- ure   out what  all     this  is
   F                              G
   for.


Verse Two:
F           G                         C              Em
It's  the   per-   fect    time  of   day,
to    throw all    your    cares a-   way
put   the   sprink-ler     on    the  lawn
      and   run    through with  my   gym  shorts on.
Take  a     drink  right   from  the  hose,
      and   change in-     to    some drier clothes.
Climb the   stairs up      to    my   room

Bridge:
D/F#               F         G
and sleep away the afternoon.


   Repeat Chorus


Post Chorus:
G5      C5    E5     F5
Pinch   me,   pinch  me, 'cause 
I'm     still a-     sleep.
Please, God,  tell   me,
that    I'm   still asleep.

Verse Three:
F          G                    C           Em
On   an    eve-  ning such  as   this
     it's  hard  to   tell  if   I    exist.    If I
pack the   car   and  leave this town,
who  will  no-   tice that  I'm  not  around?
I    could hide  out  un-   der  there;
     I     just  made you   say, "Under where?"
I    could leave but  I'll  just stay.

Bridge:
D/F#                F         G
all my stuff's here anyway.
