| Am | C | G | F |             | Am | C | G | F |
                    Hey, hey,                       Hey, hey
| Am | C | G | F |             | Am | C | G | F |
 
          Am         C               G               F
I was hell, sarcastic silver swell, that day it rained
               Am         C               G               F
Tough spun, hard won,  No, ocean flower aquarium
      Am                C        G               F
Badlands, give a hand, honey dipt, film flam
       Am         C             G                             F
Hey hey, hey hey, that cat can walk like a big bad man,
 
Dm                Am      Dm           Am
So happy to show us, I ate the lotus,
Dm                      Am      Em           Dm
Say haven't you noticed? I ate the lotus
 
Am                          C               G                 F
Storefront window, I reflect, just last week I was merely heck
Am                 C                 G                  F
Tip the scale, I was hell, Picked me up, then I fell,
 Am                          C                       G              F
Who's this stranger? Crowbar spine, dot, dot, dot and I feel fine,
      Am              C     G                      F
Let it rain, rain, rain, Bring my happy back again,
 
Dm                Am      Dm           Am
So happy to show us, I ate the lotus,
Dm                      Am      Em           Dm    Em          Dm
Sayhaven't you noticed? I ate the lotus   I ate the lotus
 
| Am | C | G | F |             | Am | C | G | F |
 
           Am          C     G                         F
Let it rain, rain, rain, Save me from myself again
Am                      C                 G                      F
Wash away my ugly sins, Opposing thumb, dorsal fin
          Am               C                    G               F
That monkey died for my grin, Bring my happy back again
          Am          C     G                      F
Let it rain, rain, rain, Bring my happy back again
 
Dm                Am      Dm           Am
So happy to show us, I ate the lotus,
Dm                      Am      Em           Dm    Em          Dm
Sayhaven't you noticed? I ate the lotus   I ate the lotus
Em          Dm Em           Dm  Em         Dm
I ate the lotus, I ate the lotus, I ate the lotus
