A
I remember quite well
The first time I took you home
D
We were so young
A
I didn't think much of you
E7
Sure you were cute and full of tricks
D
And a whole lot brighter than a guinea pig
A D4 A
But I didn't think much of you back then
A
And I think you loved me first
Cause it sure took me a while
D
To figure out
A
That you were kinda special
E7
But now you're old and full of ticks
D
And you yell at everybody just for kicks
A D4 A
And I wish that you would just shut up
A
Why do you scream at me
Why do you scream
D
I don't know why you have to do that
Cause things don't seem
A
All that bad to me
E7
Oh I'm beggin' you please
A
Baby please don't scream
A
Do you remember that old cat
Who beat you up so bad
D
You almost didn't make it
A
I almost couldn't take it
E7
But now you're mean and paranoid
D
There's not a piece of this house that you haven't destroyed
A D4 A
And I wish that you would just shut up.
A
You know I've loved a lot of men
And moved far away from them
D
And I hate to say it
A
But you're my oldest friend
E7
And I'm glad you're around
D
Cause you still know how to make my favorite sound
A D4 A
But then I wish that you would just shut up.
