Twenty Questions

Written 1997

Tab

this is the new song, a lot like the last one,
another for you song, this is a sad one,
it’s in G major, I know that’s a bright key,
don’t wanna be maudlin, I think it’s the right key,
+++ and this is the part where I say how I miss the way
+++ you used to laugh, and we played 20 questions,
+++ hey, sweet telepath, can you guess what I’m thinking of?
+++++ yes, no, maybe..

this is the next verse, they go by so quickly,
you called me a cactus, you said I was prickly,
I borrowed your razor, you borrowed my Q-tips,
and I kissed your corners, your ears and your eyelids,
+++++++ about now, a bridge might be in order,
+++++++ I didn’t mean to keep you waiting
+++++++ it’s just I couldn’t stand it if this song was any shorter,
+++++++ anyway, I’m only hesitating till
+++ the part where I say how I miss the way
+++ you used to laugh, and we played 20 questions,
+++ hey, sweet telepath, can you guess what I’m thinking of?
+++++ yes, no, maybe…
