Well, I tried to run my game

She said "Man, that's the same old thing I've heard before"
    C                G           D     Em        B7
And I'm too tired to go for your show (again and again)

        G
And she started to explain
          F                               E                  Am
She said "Man, I ain't sayin' what you're playin' just can't make it
    C            G          D      Em D
But I just can't take it anymore"

               G                     D
Play somethin' sweet, play somethin' mellow
               G             F             C
Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like Jello
               G               D
Play something I can understand

             G           F           C
Just let me lay back and grin like a monkey
               G               D

Well, I started to sweat
          F                          E                   Am
She said "Don't get upset 'cause you just might break a string
    C               G              D      Em B7
And that won't do a thing for your show

     G
So I said to myself
        F                        E                  Am
I said "Self, do you see what is sailin' through my soul?"
      C               G              D        Em D
And I gotta have some more, don't ya know

It's enough to make it light in the dark
D
It's enough to make a bite just a bark
D
It's enough to make a body move around
D
It's enough to make a rabbit hug a dog

Play somethin' sweet
