Tom : D
Em A Em A
He's a serious Mister shake his hand and he'll twist your arm
With monopoly money we'll be buying the funny farm
B F#m A
So I'll do flips and get paid in chips from a diamond as big as the Ritz
E B A
Then I'm calling it quits
Calling it quits
Em A
Eyes the color of candy lies to cover the handicap
Though your slippers are ruby you'll be led to the booby trap
B F#m A
And there's no prize just a smaller size so I'm wearing the shoe til it fits
E B A
Then I'm calling it quits
Calling it quits
B A G
Now he's numbering himself among the masterminds
Cause he's hit upon the leverage of valentines
B F#
Lifting dialogue from Judy Collins storylines
A Asus2 A Asus2 A Asus2
Where get-tough girls turn into goldmines
Em A Em G Bm
But oh, those polaroid babies taking chances with rabies
F#m A
Happy to tear me to bits
E B A
Well, I'm calling it quits
Yes, I'm calling it quits (3x)
Now he's numbering himself among the masterminds
Cause he's hit upon the leverage of valentines
