[Intro]
E  A  B

[Verse 1]
E              A      B
What's playin' at The Aero?
E                A     B
Some French noir flick
E               A       B
Don't wanna sit next to humans,
E           A     B
I'm agoraphobic
E          A     B
Order up a decaf latté,
E               A     B
spin Gainsbourg tunes
E              A         B
Gosh darn this cast iron lounger,
E            A     B
my butt will bruise

Walkin' down Montana, oh, oh

[Verse 2]
E          A        B
I tried to raise an eyebrow,
E              A     B
it weighed too much
E          A      B
Instead, I simply stared
   E           A     B
at the passing trucks
E              A         B
They said that life gets sweet
   E        A     B
as years go by
E            A        B
But mine has lost its flavor
E         A     B
like this chai
