I hope it's close enough for you.

A - Barenaked Ladies

intro (hammer on) A D(slid up to 5th) D (slid to 4th)

A (hammer on) E A E A E G D

A E A E

A is for angry which is what you are at me

A E G D

A is for adult which is what I'll never be

A E A E

A is for applesauce, my favourite meal

A E G D

A is for Adam which is how I sometimes feel

G D

like I'm the only man on Earth

E

and I've forgotten what that's worth

A is for Arthur he's a lovable drunk

AM&Azing like Thelonius Monk

A is for argument, A is for apparent

A is for antagonism that's not even there

it's just you begging for affection

or something I won't even mention

CHORUS

D D(up to 4th fret)A

And I don't even know why you keep on trying

D D(up to 4th) A

Like I don't even know why I keep on lying

D Fm E A

There are millions of people in worlds of their own

D A E

And two of them can't let go.

A is for algebra, I learned it in school

A is what Fonzie said 'cause he was very cool

A is for adversary, A is for alection

A is arousal you are giving me an erection

c'mon I'm trying to show affection

for longer than a half an hour.

CHORUS

BRIDGE

Gm Dm Cm

Gm Dm

Met a woman I used to know

Cm

Long before you, long ago.

Fm C#m

All I could say, after hello

Bm E

Was "are you still single?"

A is for attitude I can't help but wield

A is for arrogance, emotional shield

A is for acting, A is for abhorrently

A is for asshole which is what I am how rude of me

I owe you an apology

I'm sorry.

CHORUS
