[Verse 1]
If I had my Gway 
every day would be my Cday 
I would ask you out 
Emyou would say "okay!" 
and I'd Ccome get you at 8 
G8 'o clock right on the Cdot 
'cause sometimes when I am Emlate 
then I can't get you to Ctalk 
and it ruins our whole Gdate 
[Verse 2]
Gand if I had my way we'd Cgo out every night 
it'd be Emperfect every time and we'd Cnever ever fight 
Gyou know, you used to call me Cup when you were high 
and I Emnever ever asked you 
so you Cnever told me why 
[Chorus]
Gyour hair is Cgreen, your hair is Empink 
my head is Cyoung 
my heart can't Gthink 
I drive my Ccar, I ride the Embus 
I stay too Clong 
I ask too Gmuch 
Your hair was Cblack 
'til it was Emblue 
I always Chad 
a crush on Gyou 
you dye it Cback 
when you need Emto 
I'm still Cdeciding what to Gdo 
[Verse 3]
Gbut if I had my Gway, 
I would ask you to the Cprom 
you would want to meet my Emmom 
and you wouldn't even Ctease me 
for rhyming words in my Gsongs 
'cause I wrote those songs Cabout you 
but I hope you underEmstand 
that they were actually Cabout me 
and I hope that you're not Gmad 
[Verse 4] 
Gcause if I had my way you'd Ckiss me on the lips 
and you'd Emwear that dress you like 
and I'd Cwear the suit that fits 
Gbut when you lie to me you Cknow it makes me sick 
'cause your Emphone didn't die, 
but your Csoul did. (You witch!)
[Bridge]
'Gcause I wrote those songs aCbout you 
but I hope you underEmstand 
that they were actually Cabout me 
and I hope that you're not Gmad 
'Gcause I wrote those songs aCbout you 
And you'd better Emunderstand 
that they were actually Cabout me 
and I don't care if you're Gmad 
Gthat I wrote those songs about Cyou 
and I play them at my Emshows 
that I write these songs Cabout you
and I make sure that you Gknow 
that I write these songs Cabout you 
that I play these songs aEmbout you
that I sing these songs aCbout you 
that I mean these songs Gabout you
that I write these songs -C  
that I write these songs -Em  
that I write these songs;
CGoddamn, I'll write these songs
G C Em C
[Chorus]
GYour hair was Cblack 'til it was Emblue

GI couldn't Ccare less what Emyou Cdo

[Verse 1]

If I had my way

every day would be my day

I would ask you out

you would say "okay!"

and I'd come get you at 8

G C

8 'o clock right on the dot

'cause sometimes when I am late

then I can't get you to talk

and it ruins our whole date

[Verse 2]

G C

and if I had my way we'd go out every night

Em C

it'd be perfect every time and we'd never ever fight

G C

you know, you used to call me up when you were high

and I never ever asked you

so you never told me why

[Chorus]

G C Em

your hair is green, your hair is pink

my head is young

my heart can't think

C Em

I drive my car, I ride the bus

I stay too long

I ask too much

Your hair was black

'til it was blue

I always had

a crush on you

you dye it back

when you need to

C G

I'm still deciding what to do

[Verse 3]

G G

but if I had my way,

I would ask you to the prom

you would want to meet my mom

and you wouldn't even tease me

for rhyming words in my songs

'cause I wrote those songs about you

but I hope you understand

that they were actually about me

and I hope that you're not mad

[Verse 4]

G C

cause if I had my way you'd kiss me on the lips

and you'd wear that dress you like

and I'd wear the suit that fits

G C

but when you lie to me you know it makes me sick

'cause your phone didn't die,

but your soul did. (You witch!)

[Bridge]

G C

'cause I wrote those songs about you

but I hope you understand

that they were actually about me

and I hope that you're not mad

G C

'cause I wrote those songs about you

And you'd better understand

that they were actually about me

and I don't care if you're mad

G C

that I wrote those songs about you

and I play them at my shows

that I write these songs about you

and I make sure that you know

that I write these songs about you

that I play these songs about you

that I sing these songs about you

that I mean these songs about you

that I write these songs -

that I write these songs;

Goddamn, I'll write these songs

G C Em C

[Chorus]

G C Em

Your hair was black 'til it was blue

just cut it off if you want to

G C Em C

I couldn't care less what you do
