[Verse]

Em                                            G
 I woke alone, put on my coat, ran for the door
Em
 Down the stairs, and made it to the second floor
Am                     B7                 Em
Stopped by the squeaky wheel, the smiling swine
B7                       B7              Em
Stunned by the sight and fearing whats behind

Em  G

Am
"Hey there" he pleasantly began

"Good day" he telescoped his hand
Em
 "Is there a service I can possibly propose?"
     B7                          A7
"Ms. Leading seems to me to be a proper butterfly"
           Em                 B7                Em       B7
"Then I suggest you pack your bags and learn to drive!"
Em                                                    G
 Tucked in my shirt, and finally made my way outside
Em
 He broke the scene, a Machiavellian dandelion
A7                          B7          G
Blissfully plucked from the bloom of another


[Chorus]

Em
 But all the while
                          B7
She was still fresh in my mind
                Am
And though this might be premature
                                           B7
But ambition strikes just when the mood is right

The mood is right

Em
 But all the while (now all the while)
                         B7
She is still stuck in my mind (fresh in my mind)
              Am
And though it might sound premature
                                           B7
But ambition strikes just when the mood is right
            B7
The mood is right


[Outro]
