VERSE 1: P.M.
G5
Well, I'm finding it harder
Bb5 F5 G5 F5 G5
To be a gentleman every day
Bb5 F5
All the manners that I've been taught
G5 F5 G5
Have slowly died away
N.C.
But if I held the door open for you
It wouldn't make your day
BREAK: Played 2x
G5 Bb5 F5 Bb5 A5 G5
P.M.

VERSE 2:
You think that I care
About me and only me
When every single girl needs help
Climbing up a tree
I know it don't take much
To satisfy me
BREAK
BRIDGE:
C5 Bb5
Maybe it's whatever's in my head
G5
That's distracting me
Bb5
But if I could find emotion
C5
To stimulate devotion
D5
Well then you'd see

VERSE 3:
Well, I'm finding it hard to say
That I need you twenty times a day
I feel comfortable so baby
Why don't you feel the same?
Have a doctor come and visit us
And tell us which one is sane
VERSE 4:
I never said I wouldn't
Throw my jacket in the mud for you
But my father gave it to me so
Maybe I should carry you
Then you said, "You almost dropped me"
So then I did, and I got mud on my shoes
