[Intro]
B B B B
B B G Em

[Verse 1]
  B                  E
I see him through my window
    A                   D  
The white neighbourhood cat
         B
 marking my house
                 E
It's supposed to be my house
       A                  D   
But I guess, according to cats,
           B
 now it's his house
     B                   E
Mama told me, "Things will leave you
          A               D
They get broken, they get lost
    G              B
The only thing you can trust
            E
Is what you lived through"

[Pre-Chorus]
      A                D
Mama, how 'bout when I die?
G           Em             B
What do you hold onto? Hey

[Chorus]
B
Ya, ya-ya-ya-ya
A         E
Ya, ya-ya-ya, ya-ya
B
Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya
A         E
Ya, ya-ya-ya-ya
B
Ya, ya-ya-ya-ya
A         E
Ya, ya-ya-ya, ya-ya
B
Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya
A         E
Ya, ya-ya-ya-ya

[Verse 2]
            B
Gotta go to work
                E
To pay for that cat's house
        B
For the red-corseted wasp
               B
Who lives in the roof
                  E
For the family of possums
        A                  D
For the bugs who drink my blood
         A                   D
And the birds who eat those bugs

[Pre-Chorus]
               D     
So that white cat can 
          G
kill the birds
                 E        B
What do you hold onto? Hey
