I think it's time

For you to know
Em         G     Bm
The awful truth
     D                       Em
The truth about me, and the truth about you
                G
Cause you're a brand new species

G                       Bm
I try to call you every day
                       D
I'm rehearsing what to say
                     Em                   G
When the truth comes out (Of my very own mouth)
                       Bm
I've been working on a unified theory
      D                           Em
If I make it through tonight everybody's gonna hear me out
G                        Bm
Cause I'm the right one
D                 Em
On my touch-tone, touch-tone telephone
G                Bm
I'm the only one
D             Em
On your A.M., A.M. radio
 
[Verse 2]
G   Bm            D
Oh,    I'm crying now
Em         G   Bm
Authentic tears
      D                     Em
They flow out of me when I think about you
                  G                 Bm
Cause you're the only person in the world who'd understand
                  D                             Em                          G
Cause you're the only person in the world who'd understand the meaning of this
      Bm
Oh My God
  D                    Em                         G
I try and I try and I try to make you listen to me
 
[Chorus]
G                       Bm
I try to call you every day
                       D
I'm rehearsing what to say
                     Em                   G
When the truth comes out (Of my very own mouth)
                       Bm
I've been working on a unified theory
      D                           Em
If I make it through tonight everybody's gonna hear me out

Cause I'm the right one
D                 Em
On my touch-tone, touch-tone telephone

On your A.M., A.M. radio
 
[Bridge]
G                  Bm
Don't hang up yet, I'm not done
D              Em
I'm an expert, I'm the one
G               Bm
The one who was right all along
D               Em
Better to be laughed at than wrong
G              Bm
  I'm an expert in my field
D         Em
UFOlogy, yes, it's all real
G              Bm
Ancient aliens, it's all true
D             Em
I'm an expert just like you
         G                  Bm
And like you, I'm a genius before my time
D              Em
Disbelieving, that's the real crime
G                       Bm        D             Em
Pretty soon they'll discover me in the Super-Sargasso Sea
 
[Chorus]
G                        Bm
I try to call you every day
           D
What can I say
                     Em                   G
When the truth comes out (Of my very own mouth)
                       Bm
I've been working on a unified theory
      D                           Em
If I make it through tonight everybody's gonna hear me out
G                        Bm                D
Cause I'm the right one, on my touch-tone telephone
D                 Em
On my touch-tone, touch-tone telephone
G                Bm            D
I'm the only one, on your A.M radio
