G Gee your mom looked C Like shit last night G Hope that Tinkertoy C Boyfriend tonks her right G Then again I could never tell C A fist fight from fun Em C Maybe I've never really known anyone G C Just sat still and spit in the fire G I thought I might strangle you C But I couldn't find a wire G You've never been the type C To make your heart clear Em C Lest someone overhear D C G D F G D Words dro-own in your martini glass F C Entire sentences slowly drunken up G But before they slipped away A I swore I could've heard them say D A G You wanted me to be your buttercup D A G Say you need me to be your buttercup The party reached a feverish pitch Good time soldiers Drunk and in a ditch Infidelity a bomb that went off That left the world To swerve and cough Stepped over bodies Strewn like shipwrecks Love's last call Warning puke reflex Faith is for that frozen few That never met Someone quite like you Words drown in your martini glass Entire sentences slowly drunken up But before they slipped away I swore I could've heard them say You wanted me to be your buttercup Say you need me to be your buttercup Fish don't know they're short They just feel sideways And words to you are Just the same they shy away When legs and limbs are all tucked in You pull me close to you come night And I'm just like a fleshy fruit And hung from the bowl of your side Your lips may not sell or say What your eyes give away You're sweet as pumpkin pie I take the keys From your hand that stutters up Let the night air sober you up Driving home you make me pull over Em You press my hand gently G As a four leaf clover D You say sweetheart C I'm a foolish man D I'm ornery and I'm stubborn C Like my coffee from a can D But without you I would C Shrivel up and die G Won't you be my Em Won't you be my Won't you be my... Words drown in your martini glass Entire sentences slowly drunken up But before they slipped away I swore I could've heard them say You wanted me to be your buttercup Say you need me to be your buttercup Tell me you need me To be your buttercup Your buttercup Ducks, shnucks, shlucks, shucks
