COMIN' BACK SOON (THE BEREFT MAN'S SONG) - By Crash Test Dummies

C           G             F           C     G
I've all my wisdom teeth, two up top, two beneath,
    C        G            F                      C         G
And yet I'll recognise my mouth says things that aren't so wise,
    C              G                   F                  C        G
But when I sing my darling's praise, I know I'm right, or close anyways,
    C            G                 F              C      G
For she's a gem upon this earth, I know to me she will return.

(Chorus)
      C         F       C         F
Oh, I know it's true, I know it's true
     C          G           C      G
That I was made for her and she me too,
        C    F                C        F
And I'm confident that she'll think so too,
    C         G
And she'll be coming back, coming back,
C            G                           F
Coming back, coming back, coming back... soon.

C                G
Mornings we have toast and tea,
  F                          C                    G
I gaze across the table, she glares right back at me,
    C                  G
And when we're getting low on jam
  F                                  C              G
I give her the last spoonful, that's just the way I am,
    C              G
And I drive her to work each day
F                          C            G
Even though it's early and work is far away,
    C            G
And I don't even say a thing
F                           C               G
When she plays the radio so loud you cannot think.

(Chorus)

G                 F         C
I can't stand her goddamned friends,
    F           C         F             C
But I will tolerate them, even though I hate them,
    G                  F      C
And I will put up with her parents,
                F             C
`Cause she says I'll not ever meet someone
    F              C           G   F C
Who is so kind and sweet ever again...

(Chorus)

C           G             F           C     G
I've all my wisdom teeth, two up top, two beneath,
    C        G            F                      C         G
And yet I'll recognise my mouth says things that aren't so wise,
    C              G                   F                  C        G
But when I sing my darling's praise, I know I'm right, or close anyways,
    C            G                 F              C      G
For she's a gem upon this earth, I know to me she will return.

      C         F       C         F
Oh, I know it's true, I know it's true
     C          G           C      G
That I was made for her and she me too,
        C      F                C        F
And I'm pretty sure that she'll think so too,
    C         G
And she'll be coming back, coming back,
C            G                           F
Coming back, coming back, coming back... soon.
          C         G
Yeah, and she'll be coming back, coming back,
C            G                           F   C
Coming back, coming back, coming back... soon.
