[Intro]
D Dsus2/E D/F# G D/F# Dsus2/E D
 
[Verse]
     D                Dsus2/E
In a coffee shop in a city
         D/F#         G
Which is every coffee shop
         D/F#
In every city
     Dsus2/E            D
On a day which is every day
                 Dsus2/E
I picked up a magazine
         D/F#      G
Which is every magazine
       D/F#            Dsus2/E       D
Read a story then i forgot it right away
 
[Chorus]
             Bm               A
And they say goldfish have no memory
              D                   G
I guess their lives are much like mine
        Bm             A
And the little plastic castle
        D           G
Is a surprise every time
         Bm                     A
And it's hard to say if they're happy
         D                  G
But they don't seem much to mind
 
[Instrumental]
D Dsus2/E D/F# G D/F# Dsus2/E D
 
[Verse]
      D                Dsus2/E
From the shape of your shaved head
          D/F#         G
I recognized your silhouette
         D/F#            Dsus2/E     D
As you walked out of the sun and sat down
                             Dsus2/E            D/F#            G
And the sight of your sleepy smile eclipsed all the other people
        D/F#                   Dsus2/E               D
As they paused to sneer at the two girls from out of town
 
[Chorus]
             Bm               A
And i said, "look at you this morning
    D              G
You are by far the cutest
       Bm              A
But be careful getting coffee
              D                   G
I think these people want to shoot us
             Bm                           A
Or maybe there's some kind of local competition here
       D                  G
To see who can be the rudest"
 
[Instrumental]
D Dsus2/E D/F# G D/F# Dsus2/E D
 
[Verse]
       D             Dsus2/E
People talk about my image
       D/F#          G
Like i come in two dimensions
     D/F#          Dsus2/E            D
Like lipstick is a sign of my decling mind
                         Dsus2/E
Like what i happen to be wearing
             D/F#               G
The day that someone takes a picture
        D/F#            Dsus2/E  D
Is my new statement for all womankind
 
[Chorus]
      Bm                     A
And i wish they could see us now
           D               G
In leather bras and rubber shorts
             Bm               A
Like some ridiculous new team uniform
           D            G
For some ridiculous new sport
      Bm               A
Quick someone call the girl police
    D         G
And file a report
 
[Instrumental]
D Dsus2/E D/F# G D/F# Dsus2/E D
 
[Outro]
     D                Dsus2/E
In a coffee shop in a city
         D/F#         G
Which is every coffee shop
         D/F#
In every city
     Dsus2/E                D
On a day which is every day
